- It must address a problem that fits the design brief
- It must fulfil a need, address a problem, or explore an opportunity that benefits a specific user group other than students
- It must make use of sensors in the device
- It must make use of the Azure cloud infrastructure
- Need to document the source code appropriately.
- explanation of the problem the app aims to solve
- a justification of how it addresses the design breif
- description of the applicaiton design process
- videos or pictures of brainstorming sessions and participant interviews

- Does it address the brief?
- Quality of the paper formatting: does the paper follow the format? Are the references in the right format? Is the research appropriately illustrated?
- Quality of the writing: is the paper well-structured and organised? Is it written clearly? Is it engaging? Are there grammar or spelling mistakes?
- Coverage of related work: is the related work appropriately covered? Are there important works missing? Are the works appropriately referenced? Are the works discussed relevant to the proposed research plan?
- Quality of the fictional prototype: is the imagined prototype novel? Does it build upon previous work?
- Quality of the research plan: are the design methods appropriate for eliciting requirements from the chosen user group? Are the evaluation methods appropriate for assessing the prototype? Are the methods described in detail?
- Quality of the visuals
- Quality of the delivery
- Quality of the discussion
