Weekly Homeworks
The purpose of the homeworks is to give you the opportunity to explore and to create. Some of the homework will be to experiment with different web sites, some will be Scratch programming, some will be short essays, and some will be pencil and paper analysis.
You will have a homework assignment most every week. Each is graded on a ten point scale. Questions are the exams are likely to be similar to some of those in the homeworks.
For those homeworks that have a creative component, you will have the opportunity to demonstrate your work to the rest of the class!
