Same, if it'd help.

I also might have some ideas, but what exactly are we looking at in terms of what's produced from the projects? Are they solely design projects (and if so, would it work to, say, have a team on our end actually implementing stuff, and then sending that back for testing and the like, or such), or might there also be development/implementation involved from (some of) the student groups as well (since it is 'design and engineering')?

that sounds very interesting. I think I have no good project from myself, but I am interested in co-mentoring.

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 with this university program. 

Click here 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@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.edu/cap/past-capstone-projects
