COMP6008 Class 27

I met with each student to see how much progress was being made.

We didn't discuss any new material

SOFT6008 Assignment 1 Deadline

The deadline for Assignment 1 is 1715 31 March 2011.

Students may

1. hand deliver the assignment  to me during any SOFT6008 class before then
2. e-mail a ZIP file containing all of the html pages (avoid large images)
3. e-mail a URL with the location of the front page (Dropbox tends not to work well for this)
4. hand deliver a CD / DVD / USB stick to my office C123c before the deadline

The above options are listed in order of preference.

SOFT6008 Class 25 & 26 Lab A

Students worked away on the exercises.

I think that mot students are not making sufficient progress and are behind schedule. And those are the students who are actually here. I've no idea what's going on with the missing students.

I suspect that some students will resort to cheating in order to get the work in on time.
