COMP8035 Week 01 Lab

I spoke about the assessment for the module.

I spoke a bit about using quality sources for research and gave out a list of journals available at CIT that I thought might be useful.

I asked students to

• select two topics
• find five articles about each one
• write a blog post listing them
• write a short comment on each topic
• write a short note on each paper

and e-mail me the URL for the blog


We watched Black Mirror: Nosedive and spoke a bit about ratings culture. That would be an interesting topic to research.

The deadline for these tasks is 1800 on Friday

Labs will go ahead this week.

We discussed some of the issues arising from the widespread availability of digital cameras.

SOFT6013 Week 11

Students worked on their submissions for the portfolio.

I spoke a bit about parameters. I got the feeling last week that people weren't clear on who they work so we spent an hour on so try to get that sorted.

I met with students individually so see what they were working on and how much progress they were making.

COMP7004 Class 11.2

We discussed Privacy and how it is not especially intrinsically valuable, but is essential for other things such as democracy, friendship, love.

The class turned out to be more interesting that I was expecting.

COMP7002 Class 11.2

I wasn't feeling well this morning. So I cancelled class.  Since nobody came to yesterday's class, I didn't think anyone would very much mind.

I do plan to have class next week. And I will, of course, see you in the labs.

COMP7004 Class 11.1

I gave out some handouts to help with the essay. I talked about the structure for the essay and we discussed passible approaches to take for some of the topics.
