CS 3724, Fall 2006: Course Calendar

Calendar is subject to change, click 'refresh'. The classes alternate between lecture and group-based class activities. The lectures are roughly based on the chapters in Interaction Design, but often introduce other material that you will also be responsible for in exams. The ID chapters are required reading. Homework and Project assignments are due in class on Thursdays.  Hall-of-Fame/Shame Presentations have been assigned using a semi-random algorithm. Note that some presentations will be done in pairs.
