Are you are interested in mentoring or co-mentoring a small team of UX
design students around researching and designing product solutions related
to our FY17-18 Annual Plan?
If so, *please let me know by 11/27*. I am happy to help write up a
(brief!) project proposal and share mentoring responsibilities as needed if
the proposal is accepted. Wikimedia has a (gratis) corporate affiliate
partnership <https://www.hcde.washington.edu/cap/members> with this
university program.
Click here <https://www.hcde.washington.edu/cap/past-capstone-projects> to
see examples of the kinds of projects that these students have completed in
the past. Happy to field any questions you might have.
Best,
Jonathan

Subject: HCDE Capstone Projects -- Proposing Projects by November 28
To: Jonathan Morgan <jmorgan(a)wikimedia.org>
Hi Jonathan,
I wanted to let you know that I am now soliciting proposals for
undergraduate capstone projects. If you are interested, please consider
submitting a proposal via the link below by November 28. I know that you
pitched a potential capstone project in the past that was not selected, but
I thought you might want to try again.
Here is the link to submit a capstone project idea:
https://www.hcde.washington.edu/cap/propose-capstone/submit
If you do submit a project idea, I will contact you again in early December
to invite you to a class session in the winter quarter to meet students and
present your idea in person. I will be scheduling this session of the
capstone planning class January 19, 10:30-12:30. At that time, you will be
invited to give a ~8 minute presentation to the students. (Please note that
these presentations to the students are optional. Also, regardless of
whether you offer a presentation, students will have access to the text you
submit at the link above and to any other materials you want me to share
with them.)
I am excited about the prospect of working with you in the winter and
spring quarters on a capstone project. If you have any questions about the
proposal submission process or capstone in general, please let me know.
Regards,
Mark
P.S. If you are interested, you can see that results of past capstone
projects at the link here: https://www.hcde.washington.ed
