Projects from Fall 2001

This was the first term that required web projects from each student. Students selected material that they felt comfortable with and coded their web page so that it would "teach" their audience what they learned. The following categories classify the projects that resulted. The quotations are from the students' reports and indicate their web page's intended audience.

Note: Some pages are "under construction" (uc) because the authors need to clarify or reformat their web pages before they can be posted.
