The Mini Project is the first small project the students work on. The students present their preject in front of the course.&#x20;

A Slide deck covering how to introduce the Mini Project, can be found in your class drive materials folder.

### Why is the Mini Project important? <a href="#h.f5d7k4ivjtly_l" id="h.f5d7k4ivjtly_l"></a>

Students apply what they have learned so far in a small project. It is a great preparation for the Final Project and motivates them by seeing what they can achieve already.
