The instructor handed out the assignment sheet for the next and last project of class (it was posted here on Friday. See Links section). We went over the assignment sheet. If you didn't get a copy, it is available by going to last week's blog post.
Next we had the last of the student presentations, which were on group think.

Breakdowns:

Small groups will work together. Individual projects will be grouped by software.
Bring notebooks on Friday, as the instructor will grade your notebook while you are working in the small group.
Notebook grade: The best grades are given for neatness, thoroughness, and organizational skills. Consult the handout given to you at the beginning of class.
