SOFT6008 Assignment 1 - last chance extension
Hi
Under normal circumstances the 2 week late deadline for Assignment would be 1715 on Thursday 14 April. After this deadline late submissions will have a penalty of -100% applied to them.
I am extending this deadline to noon on Monday 18 April. Work submitted by e-mail by then will have the -20% penalty applied.

Computing Ethics Class 32
Today's class was given over to helping students with their papers. I wanted to have some brainstroming sessions where students could give each other ideas, to talk about the importance of structure, and give tips for constructing an argument.
No one turned up. Oh well.

SOFT6008 Class 40
We used today's class as a lab.
I spent the week trying to think up new and interesting things for us to do in JavaScript and I concluded that we are done.
If students want to experiment with some of the more interesting things we did I am happy to help out. But everyone at CIT seems very tired these days, so I don't think we will do anything new in class. So all subsequent classes will be labs.
I strongly recommend that students get the assignment in before the spring break rather than waiting until the day of the deadline. The break is better used studying for exams.

SOFT6008 Class 37 & 38 Lab B
Students worked away on the assignments. I get the feeling that people are a bit tried of JavaScript. That is understandable. But if you work hard for the next week or so you can get it done and dusted and out of the way.
SOFT6008 Class 37 & 38 Lab A
There were only 7 students in class. 3 were working on Assignment 2 and 4 still working on Assignment 1.
