Grading of Projects
Be aware that quality will be rewarded more than quantity. For instance, an application that provides only basic functionalities but is "rock solid" will get higher grades than an application that offers a lot of optional functions but does not respect the UI guidelines for the chosen platform, does not properly handle error conditions, stops recording data when it is moved to the background, and so forth. The quality of the source code will be also considered in the grading process. For instance, source code that is properly commented and highly modular will be favored over code that lacks comments, uses cut-and-paste instead of inheritance, and so forth.
