SOFT6008 Class 32

Some serious debugging.

SOFT6008 Class 31

Students continued work of the assessments and on cookies.

Students who have finished the assessment this week should get it to me before the break. There is a good chance I would be able to give early feedback. Any deficiencies can be corrected before the deadline.

SOFT6008 Class 30

We looked at cookies

The handout I gave out in class has some important points in it that I did not discuss in class.

SOFT6008 Class 29

Students worked on coding pages for the Assessment.

I advised students that they will be expected to meet with me and talk me though their code as part of the assessment process.

SOFT6007 Class 28

We continued our look at CSS

SOFT6007 Class 26 A

Not much going on

SOFT6007 Class 27 A

We were in C128

Didn't seem to be a whole lot of work going on.

Some students asked about the assignment specification. I should have that very soon.

SOFT6007 Class 27 B

Not much going on really

SOFT6007 Class 26 B

We were in B219. This timetable arrangement will be permanent.

I couldn't find anyone who was doing actual work. I don't know how to force people. Perhaps once I specify the assignment things will pick up.

SOFT6007 EV Week 07

17 March was a holiday.

Don't forget the exam is next week.

SOFT6007 Class 25

We started a bit late because the project would not talk to Colin's laptop.

Only 5 students were in class.

We looked at Cascading Style Sheets (CSS)

SOFT6008 Class 28

We looked at how to modify the CSS properties of page elements on a form using getelementbyid. This can be used to highlight user inputs that to not comform to requirements.

SOFT6008 Class 27

More coding.

The Assignment 1 specification was locked down and the deadline set at noon on 12 April 2010.

SOFT6008 Class 26

More coding. More debugging.

If I even have to design a debugging course, I will use JavaScript as the language. There are so many banana skins to slip on.

SOFT6008 Copying code

Students should be careful about sharing code. Giving your code to another student could be considered cheating. Since it can be difficult to know what is OK and what is not, it is safer if you never swap code.


Alumnos no deben compartir individual codigos. Facilitar tu codigo a otro alumno podria ser considerado una falta. Debido a la dificultad para distinguir lo que esta permitido y no permitido la norma a seguir es no compartir tu codigo.

SOFT6008 Class 25 Extra

Since students stayed on working in the lab, I stayed too.

I won't call this Class 26 though, because that would confuse my number system. We now have an extra class in hand in case I am missing some day.

SOFT6008 Class 25

Students worked on their code and I helped with debugging.

CCAD

We talked briefly about flickr and YouTube.

Students spent a lot of time fiddling with their blogs.

I explained how podcasting worked and how to find sonline resources using the iTunes Music Store. Making podcasts is a bit complicated. Audio podcasts are easy enough, but video is more work. We had a quick look at the kinds of things iMovie could do.

I gave out an article on Podcasting.


Video of some of the class.

SOFT6007 Class 24

We moved to C128. Attendance was poor so there was no danger of running out of room.

Few students seemed interested in doing any work. So my theory about a lab being more productive than a classroom was incorrect.

From what I could gather, only one student did anything even remotely related to work for this module.

SOFT6007 Class 22 & 23 A

We did an exam
