Capstone Project: Stage 3 Instructions

You are now in Stage 3 of the Capstone Project, in which you will populate the Stage 3 section of the CVAT Coast City Audit PowerPoint with relevant details on topics related to the human systems and coastal engineering concepts covered in Modules 8-10.

Directions

  1. Complete Stage 3 of the CVAT Coastal City Audit PowerPoint: Human System Assessment and Infrastructure Engineering Assessment (Green Section).
  2. Submit your updated CVAT PowerPoint to Capstone Project: Stage 3 (Human System Assessment and Infrastructure Engineering Assessment) by the due date. Please employ the following naming convention: Last Name_First Name Stage3.pptx
  3. After you have submitted Capstone Stage 3 and have received feedback from your instructor, continue populating your PowerPoint with high-quality information you gathered from Stage 3. You will need to be vigilant about updating the PowerPoint as you work through the course. Remember that this will be part of your end-of-semester project.

Examples

We post a couple of examples below to help you get going. We stress that there are no correct answers, and these examples are just for guidance, to help you with questions about the amount of detail we expect in various components of the Capstone project. Every city is different and there may be more information in one area or another for a specific city. For example, there is often more information, particularly in the engineering and policy areas, for U.S., European, and some Asian cities than there is for some cities in Africa. Again, please use these examples for guidance, along with the detailed directions for each stage, and let us know if you have any questions.
