Welcome to CS 101 Spring 2011


Reminder of criteria for activity points

Before you e-mail us lobbying for the addition of some point-worthy activity to the sanctioned list or for credit based on something you've done, keep in mind that the passing criterion for a CS-related activity is that you wouldn't have done it were you not enrolled in CS101. This is the first thing we will ask when presented with a petition for points.



Final Report information

Cover page: FinalForm.pdf Δ. Please make note if any groups members listed did not participate.

Report: No less than one page 12pt times roman single-spaced. Bulleted lists are fine. You need to cover:

  • What you proposed to do
  • What you actually did
  • How you did it
  • What you learned
  • Your thoughts on this project in general

One report per group.



Final Presentation

Your group will present your project to the class, covering the first four topics from your report. The presentation should be about 5 minutes long and have some sort of visual/slide (containing your group name and group member names).

On the day you are assigned, be prepared to walk up and present. Have the iRobot ready and and your slide loaded on a laptop or emailed to Prof. Duric (cc the TAs).
