Format:
Formatting must follow “Document Format Requirements” in Communication in
ESP. Figures and tables, with descriptive labels, should be included within the
text, where appropriate.
This team assignment will serve as a contract between you and your client. It sets the
foundation for the design process by answering the following four questions:
1.
What is the need for the design with respect to the gap?
2.
What does the design have to do, technically, in order to address the problem?
3.
Where will it operate and under what conditions?
4.
Who will be affected, positively or negatively, by this project?
The Project Requirements does not offer a solution. The document must include value- added
information beyond that in the client statement, including information gathered from sources
other than your client and your own critical thinking on the project.

To write your assignment (rough and final drafts)
All assignments in APS111
must
be written
(drafted and revised)
in Google Docs and submitted
online through Quercus.
Other forms of submissions, hardcopy or digital, will not be accepted.
Any variance from this process will result in an incomplete submission and, thus, late penalties.

Google Doc file shared with your TA. Do NOT write it in
Word then copy/paste to Google Doc. Your Google Doc file must show revision history from
start to finish.
The required content for the IPS must be submitted to your TA through Quercus
