SOFT7008 PHP Class 01.1

I introduced myself, but I had actually met most students before.

Only five students turned up and there wasn't a computer, so we didn't do a whole lot.

I emailed everyone in ITS2 and ITM2 about the module.

This is your recommended Free Choice module for this semester. This is a programming module.

You are free to choose a different free choice module, but it is very unlikely that you will find one that fits in with your timetable. If you are choosing a different one you should do so quickly.

The CRN for this module is in the e-mail I sent. Please register for it online.

The next class is Tuesday at 1400 in C169. Please attend.


This modules requires a web server and PHP server.  If you typically bring your laptop to college please bring it on Tuesday. Alternatively please bring a USB memory stick.

SOFT6007 This Week

I will be in the labs this week in case people have any questions or anothing they would like to go over.


But you are not exected to go unless you want to.


There will be no SOFT6007 lecture on Tuesday.


If I don't see you in the meantime good luck with your assessments and enjoy the break. If there were any modules that you struggled with this semester, do a bit of study during the break so that you are not behind when you come back.

SOFT6008 this week

I'm not expecting to see anyone this week. But I will be going along to the labs and class anyway, just in people have any questions or anything they would like to review.

We used the time for labs. Lots of brave students tackling cookies!

We tacked cookies and most students wrote code to write the forename and surname to the cookies. Students will expected to take it form there themselves. But the recording of the 5 Nov class covers all that.
