Target

(Proposed) By the end of INT322, students should be able to create a web site containing a nicely-styled, database-linked, incremental-lookup text field.

(Peter M suggests that this target can be achieved by INT222 students, provided that we give them the web service to use.)

Technologies

Modern Web Technologies

1. Html5
2. JavaScript
3. CSS
4. DOM
5. jQuery
6. json/xml/web services/REST

What should we be teaching? Where?

• INT422

  Suggestion; In addition to what is being taught it is extremely beneficial for students to:

  1. Work in groups instead of individual assignments
  2. Do larger scale projects, (large enough to make it impossible for one person to complete it)
  3. Use tools for project management in addition to visual studio. (Microsoft based collaborations tools; share point, team foundation , project management, etc...)
