PRESENTATION /that was not used during examination

Discussion
Gustav tycker att du har en otroligt bra presentation av ditt projekt (Swedish). Oops! Gustav is very impressed by your project presentation.
Thank you very much!
Even though I was very tired towards the end of yesterday, I found your oral presentation to be very interesting. You really explained the problem and your thoughts in a clear and understandable way! Also, I noticed that you have the English vocabulary for a lot of words that I can not translate, and that is impossible to translate by using a common dictionary. So, perhaps you could help me out a bit here..?
Thank you Susanne for the comment, I really appreciate such words coming form teacher's perspective. As I told you before, I will try to help you as much as I can with all the “CAD-stuff” and vocabulary if you want to…and I hope that we all will help each other :)
Your project does indeed lend itself well to parametrization and I expect both you and your company will get a lot out of understanding their constraint-space and embodying this in a parametric product model.
Aha. So this was your project. Even though I was not there for the actual presentation, from talking with you (and other comments) I am confident that you have found an effective way to implement parametrics. Unlike mine, your project seems to use parametrics in the most useful way (seems fully parameterizeable?). I know that when I tried to work on my project I spent so much time trying to figure out what I was even trying to do. It looks like you had a very clear idea of what you wanted to examine, which, I would guess, gave you more time to actually spend finding what those parameters needed to be and less time confused or slogging through logic diagrams.
The real value of schematic representations of problems, design-spaces and parametric models really becomes apparent when you start working in bigger teams and when communicating this up- or down-stream.
