Mentorship HoursJudging Criteria
Feasibility and Impact
How well does the hack fit the track theme? How well thought-out is the concept itself, concerning both the problem it aims to solve and the solution that has been proposed?
Innovation
How well does the hack approach the problem from a fresh perspective? Or, does the hack address a unique aspect of the problem that isn't already implemented or developed?
Functionality
How well did the team translate their concept into a working prototype? Is the hack functional, and to what extent? Is it limited to a few examples or test cases, or were you able to operate the hack yourself and use it for its intended purpose?
Overall Presentation
How was the overall presentation of the hack? Did the hackers have a prepared pitch, or was it more off-the-cuff? How convincing was the pitch? How well did the hackers understand the scope of their problem?
Submission
Team Projects must be submitted via HackDKU DevPost platform (link below).
Submission must be either a working code, application, website, or UI/UX prototype.
Projects that include code should be first uploaded/synced with Git platform (e.g., GitHub, GitLab), and then link to the relevant Git repository should be uploaded to DevPost.
