2. Sample Slides
 The following slides are samples of what
your presentation should cover. I’m using
a fake example involving an app that
provides info on where a person can get
cheap gas in places where you might
need to see an example
 Your may use these as templates – that is just
fill them in with your own content
 You may build your own from scratch – just
make sure that this information is covered in
your presentation.

3. Product Overview
The problem it addresses
 Gas prices may vary between
different stations
 Drivers want to know where the
least expensive gas will be along a
route
 Product X shows a list of gas
stations within a mile of a planned
route, ordered by current gas prices

4. Background - give some information
about why your product is needed
 Recent Oregonian article:
 Gas prices varied between $2.05 and
$1.95 per gallon of regular
 Drivers may find a cheaper station
down the road after getting a fill-up

5. Who is your audience?
 Drivers who plan on taking a pre-
defined route
 Have a WAP-enabled cell phone
 Will be traveling within the Portland
metro area

6. What are their characteristics?
what do we know about them?
 At least 250,000 registered car
owners - drive 100,000 miles a day
 Over half between 25 and 35 years
of age
 Most have a computer at home
 Most common kind of cell phone is a
Nokia ABC - only 25% pay for WAP
service

7. Your Product – you may have this summary
slide and a separate slide for each feature
 Features
 Feature 1 – enter trip route
 Feature 2 – show list of
stations within a mile of
route
 Feature 3 – order station
list by price or distance
from route
 Feature 4 – another cool
function

8. Feature 1 – you may have a
separate slide for each feature
 This feature is shown
using the screen
capture (use Alt-PrtScr
to capture a screen
image) and explained
within the context of
the “typical user”

9. Feature 2 – you may have a
separate slide for each feature
 This feature is shown
using the screen
capture (use Alt-PrtScr
to capture a screen
image) and explained
within the context of
the “typical user”

10. Feature 3 – you may have a
separate slide for each feature
 This feature is shown
using the screen
capture (use Alt-PrtScr
to capture a screen
image) and explained
within the context of
the “typical user”

11. Feature 4 – you may have a
separate slide for each feature
 This feature is shown
using the screen
capture (use Alt-PrtScr
to capture a screen
image) and explained
within the context of
the “typical user”

12. Product Demo
This might be a good place to break the
power point presentation and do a
demo
The Demo should take us through a
typical “use” of the application – for
example, use story telling – “Joe is
driving to his friend’s house at 7605
N. Wabash – he’ll be leaving his office
at 1200 NW Grand …”

13. The Architecture of the System
 What are the major parts of the
system?
 What does each part do? it’s inputs?
it’s outputs?
 A picture would be nice here …

14. Customer Feedback
 Discuss whatever feedback your
customer shared with you:
 how well does it meet their needs
 future enhancements they’d like to see
 general feedback

15. The Process
 What steps did you go through
 briefly define each step
 indicate how much time and effort
went into the step (estimated per
the project plan and actual)

17. Additional enhancements - additional
enhancements that could be made?
 Future enhancements
 Optionally list stations that accept
user’s gas cards
 Option to only list stations that sell
diesel
 Allow user to enter nearest intersection
of highway milepost marker and
provide a list of the ten closest stations
ordered by gas price

18. Project Dynamics -How did your team
divide up the work?
 Team member 1:
 Gathered user information, responsible
for reverse engineering site
 Team member 2:
 Wrote proxy, designed intermediate
database
 Team member 3:
 Did some other stuff
