-====== Project Brainstorming ======+====== Overview of Projects ======
  
-Work in progress for figuring out team projects.  These notes probably won't make sense to anyone but me.+Throughout the term, each student will work in one of three teams on one of the following projects.  The projects will be accessible to the world at completion of the course so that you can include them in your portfolio for employers.

-===== NSF Reports ===== 
  
-National Science Foundation grant winners have to submit annual reports to NSF.  The report describes the various activities and results from the past year.  Often winners get to that time, and forget what all they did that year. 
- 
-They need a way to enter activities, tag them based on the nsf research.gov 
-categories of where it will get reported in the final report, and any other information 
-about the task, e.g., when complete, who completed it, how many people involved,... 
- 
-Then when they have to write the report, they could search on particular tags for certain date ranges and get a start of a report of activities that they can then just smooth out into paragraphs. 
- 
-It would be a web interface that is private to only those people we are 
-allowed to enter data and create reports, basically the PIs on the grant. 
- 
-Categories of activities:  
-    * education 
-    * research 
-    * outreach 
-    * publications 
-    * outcomes 
- 
-I have an example report, but I don't want to post it online. 
- 
-Could use similar fields/information for W&L faculty's Faculty Activity Reports.
