Massachusetts Institute of Technology - Department of Urban Studies and Planning


11.520: A Workshop on Geographic Information Systems
11.188: Urban Planning and Social Science Laboratory

Project Titles and Presentation Schedule
December 10, 2007, 2-5 PM - CRN Classroom (9-554)

Here is preliminary sequence for the 11.188/11.520 presentations using the latest title that we have. Allowing 10 minutes to get started, 6 minutes for each presentation plus 2 minutes for questions, comments, and transition, the 20 presentations will take 170 minutes total - that is, all but 10 minutes of the entire three hours that we have. So there is no slack in the system and we will have to work hard to keep on schedule. We may adjust the sequence of presentations if we have some technical issues or if additional folks need to swap out of later times due to other classes. .
