As a writing intensive course, IST 499w encourages "writing as a means of sharpening thinking in and understanding of the subject." This is a tentative list of topics and due dates, subject to change.

Papers should follow the conventions noted in the course style sheet. Remember too, when doing a peer review to follow the course editing guidelines. Finally, avoid plagiarizing others' work.

You must also include one or more graphics in the graded papers. This can be an illustration copied from another source (a screen shot, for example, a logo, whatever). It can also be an original illustration that you designed to fit the context.

Refer to the class schedule for software / web site review dates to determine the date that a presentation and companion "text" synopsis are due.
