This course will be offered again in in Fall 2022. The course will be
somewhat similar to the Spring 2022 course (which you can explore
here, including the Syllabus and Schedule,
but with some changes based on what we learned last spring and new
versions of these will be posted soon.
The Fall 2022 course is scheduled for Tuesdays and Thursdays,
12:30-1:45pm in Olsson Hall 120.
Here are final projects with public websites available.

Project Presentations
Each team will have an opportunity to present your project to the
class on either Wednesday, 27 April or Monday, 2 May. You will have
5 minutes maximum for your presentation (which will need to be
enforced strictly to be able to complete all the presentations within
the schedule class period). It is fine if your presentation is shorter
(which might even allow time for questions), but you should keep the
time limit in mind in planning your presentation.
Teams presenting should submit your slides as either a PDF file, a
link to a (publicly-visible) URL, or a PowerPoint file by sending a
slack message in your team channel to me no later than 10:29am on the
date of your presentation.
