5-week Project Deadlines

The deadlines for the five computer projects are listed below. For more specific information about grading, requirements, etc. click on the project titles in the table below. REMINDER: Late work will NOT be accepted due to tight deadlines and production schedules. If your group is signed up to use a video camera or editing station, you MUST work on that day no matter what.

You need to record the names and phone numbers of everyone on your group in case someone is unable to come to school and you have a deadline. You also need to keep a journal (called different things based on the project you are working on) that has daily entries. This will count towards your final grade and you will write a summary at the end of the project.
