Scaffolding Assignment 3

RAD Groups

Take a look back at the writing assignments for Milestones 1 & 2. Now, write a brief explanation of your design progress geared towards a potential investor (no more than two pages, double-spaced).

Use the statistics, research, and information you found during both Milestones 1 & 2 to help this investor understand why you have designed your product the way that you have, as well as guide them in understanding why your product would be worth backing. You may also wish to include experiences, certifications, training, and other relevant information about each team member as part of your persuasive argument.

Remember: this investor is not necessarily an engineer. Their priority is understanding how you plan to make a return on their potential investment. You'll need to consider the best way to explain how your product works and why it is constructed in a specific way in a manner they can understand.

One last note: this piece of writing should serve as a starting point for the introduction and non-technical portions of your Final Design Report (FDR). In other words: the more thoughtful you are with this assignment, the easier it will be to write and finish your FDR later.
