COMP6021 Class 05 The humble mighty bit

The one with the sock on the door

This was our first class. But I'm calling it Class 05 because I want to keep my numbering consistent with the weeks. I apologize for the late start, and the last minute room change.




I asked students to watch this video in advance of class. I don't believe that many did.






We looked at bits and combinations of bits, and how they can be assigned meaning. We looked at how bits can be used to represent integers.

COMP6023 DCOM1 Class 05

Last week I asked students to find out everything they could about blogs. I asked a few students at the start of class what they had learned. Students got into groups to share what they had figured out. How is a blog different from a regular web page?

COMP6023 DNET1 Lab

I was a bit confused about who the lecturer is for this module. I seem to be doing just a lab.

I got students to
  • signup to Blogger
  • modify the settings in Blogger
  • e-mail me the URL for the blog
  • signup to Google+
  • add me to a circle
  • I then added them to the COMP6023 circle
We didn't set up Google Analytics on the blog. Remind me to do that.

SOFT6008 COM2B Class 47 & 48

Students worked in the assignment. I advised against making any major changes at this late stage. 

Fewer students came to class than I was expecting. I don't know if that was a good sign or a bad sign.

I'll be in my office until about 1600 if anyone is stuck.
