CE 153 Reporting

1. This activity is designed for those students 6. Your presentation must contain the
who are willing only to gain extra points in following: Cover page, Concept, Problems
CE 153 – Matrix Analysis of Structures. & Solutions, and References (minimum 5).

2. This undertaking is devised to help you in 7. Provide drawings with labels and
the preparation of your board exam. We are dimensions; use the following font styles:
almost done with our subject matter while Times New Roman for text and Cambria
still having sufficient time available before Math for equations; use minimum font size
the semester ends. of 20; Use white background in your PPT
(minimalist).
3. Group yourselves with a maximum of 3
members. 8. Each student must make 10 questions. It is
preferred to obtain problems from past board
4. The assigned topic will be drawn by lot. The exams.
first group will deliver their reports as a rule

topics are tabulated as follows: hour duration. Suggestion: Practice your
assigned topic to minimize delay.
