CSCI 190A
Directed Programming

To sign up for Directed Programming with me, come see me to discuss what you propose to do for your 190A project. Once we have agreed on a project, just enroll in CSCI 190A via TRACS.

Your project for CSCI 190A must be a programming project - you must write some code as part of the project.

Due dates

It is best if you think of something that you want to do. Let this be an opportunity for you to pursue your interests.

You are required to turn in a written report on your project. Use proper English grammar and spelling, and format the report to enhance readability. I can read most types of documents (HTML, Word, Acrobat, Postscript). The report should cover:

If possible, I would like a demo of your project. If you did the work as part of an internship, include a copy of your performance evaluation with your report.

Due Dates

The project should be complete and the document written three weeks prior to the end of the semester. You can submit it to me at that time (or earlier for additional recommendations and advice). This way, it can be edited and reviewed by Finals week. During Finals week you should schedule a time during which you can show me a demo of your project.

If I do not receive anything from you by the third week prior to Finals week, I cannot guarantee that your project will be satisfactory and hence you could have problems with graduating in that semester.
