I really liked the virtual debate we had on SDLC and its application for web developers. Robert and Jeffery really got into it! There was also some differences of opinion on procedural vs OO languages. I love controversy in the discussion questions! Bottom line is that there is no single right answer to all situations -- it always depends!
I am sure students now understand why we academics do not like students to cite Wikipedia as a reference. As part of the mini-project, many of the student edited the SDLC article. During the course of Monday evening when student were feverishly entering revisions to the article, it was vandalized twice in a single night! It shows how easy it is to change the content. It is also very easy to insert unreliable information and opinions. In your research papers, expect a deduction if you cite Wikipedia.
We are heading closer and closer to the final! I sense perhaps that some students are running out of gas? A few students did not complete the Session 12 mini-projects and I am a bit concerned. Please e-mail me if you have personal issues and/or conflicts so we can work things out!
We are approaching the finish line! Hang in there!
