What is the personal Android project?
In the Deep Dive Coding Java Enterprise & Android Mobile Bootcamp, one of the 2 major projects you will plan and execute is the personal Android project. As the name indicates, the final deliverable of this project is an Android app, and each student is responsible for the development of the planned features of their own app.
The personal Android project counts for 200 out of the 1000 total points available in the bootcamp. Grading for the project occurs at four milestones, occurring at the end of the four project sprints (see below). The points available at these 4 milestones are 25, 50, 50, and 75. Some tasks of the personal Android project may be assigned as homework; any such tasks will count for a portion of the homework points available, in addition to the project points.
Work on the personal Android project begins during the pre-work, and proposals are completed (after multiple review and feedback cycles) by the end of the first week. (A student may submit multiple draft proposals; however, a single topic must be selected by the student and approved by the instructors during week 1 of the bootcamp.)
During the bootcamp, the Android project is executed in 4 sprints, each 10–15 calendar days long.
The final milestone is scheduled for week 10 of the bootcamp. This date (along with the dates of the first 3 milestones) is subject to change by the instructors, with prior notice to the students. In general, any such change will move the corresponding milestone later, not earlier.
