1. What is the purpose of the project?
To use linear algebra on an application that fits your specialty.
> 2. On what Do you have a rubric or some kind of documentation outlining what is required to get an A on the project?
All presented projects in the past earned a grade of "A". The only projects that received less than "A" credit
were those that were not submitted at all or blatantly incomplete, missing 50% of the work. An earnest attempt
earns "A" credit 95-100%. A project is an opportunity to show what you learned in the course that applies
to your specialty. I hope to learn something of your specialty by reading it.

> 3. Are the projects displayed on your website examples of projects that would earn an A?
All published received "A" except the ones that are incomplete. Some were duplicates of projects done in the past,
and that is OK if the project is presented well and adds something not in the previous project.

 4. What will we be required to do in the project? The sample projects on your website make it seem like it will be a research project where we outline a way that linear algebra is applied in the world and explain some of the math.
They are research projects into your own area of expertise, on a subject studied long ago, so you are already comfortable with the topic.
It must make some contact with linear algebra. The only new element for you should be the linear algebra, not the topic.

> Do we also need to find a new way to apply the math?
No. It is contact with linear algebra as seen from the application area. Most people use Wikipedia as a base of information, no creative effort expended.
