Summary of Project
Students met with Janice to go over the project plan. After creating a questionnaire modifications were made after review with the client. Two students were trained to administer a hearing test and did this to our test subjects. Quentin Zimmer then analyzed the data to create a research poster.
Key Takeaways or Advice
If students can come up with 2-3 ideas to pitch to the partner, it gives them more options for the partner to decide on. Give the students timeline goals to make sure they are getting goals accomplished.
