Redone 2 Aug 2002, Last updated 8 April 2006.
Note: The course is graded, based on presentations and a web
product of your design.
This course can provide DWR2 credit. This description reflects those
requirements.
We are moving to a wiki for these notes. Go to the updated copy
of this Spring 2006 Schedule. That
will have links to updated class notes as well.
The full course description
has also moved.
Actual and Proposed Topic Schedule
The topic schedule is always tentative until the date is past.
We figure out in class what aspects of the Internet are of greatest
interest. The notes now available reflect activities from last year. They will
be updated by me on the weekend after each Friday class, and the update date
will be changed then.
