Answer the following questions:
1. The CS subjects (for example, mobile programming, database, web programming/design, coding a solution to a problem, hardware/software problems, etc.) you enjoy. Also include relevant work experience. Important skills for CS 499 to list:
Team leader: take responsibility for project schedule, meetings, etc.
Web page design/updates
Software engineering skills (design, testing, etc.)
2. The CS subjects you dislike
3. From the list of projects, list your top four preferences (by project number) in order, and describe why you want to be on this project. “No preference” is an acceptable answer.
For questions 1 and 2, provide a minimum of one paragraph. For question 3, one paragraph per listed project. If you list less than four projects, I will assume that you have "no preference" after the listed projects, but see note below.
You can also list students that you want to work with (but see below).
The assignment is not due until end of day January 22. If you submit your project requests, then change your mind, you can resubmit the assignment. The last submission is used by the instructor.
Note: The instructor tries his best to fulfill student requests. However it may not be possible for all students:
You are NOT guaranteed your first pick. Provide alternate projects.
You are NOT guaranteed to work on a project with other students that you want to work with
The algorithm that the instructor uses to assign students to projects weighs the factors (in priority order):
1. Student preferences
2. Section (Match students together on a project in the same section when possible. The instructor tries to leave one class day a week open to the students (no formal class) starting in February.)
3. Skills/Likes/Dislikes
4. Preferred students to work with
The instructor makes the final determination of student assignments to projects. In Spring 2017, out of 60 students, 70% got their 1st or 2nd choice, even though four projects had 8 or 9 students selecting it as their 1st choice.
