Assessment time

It's finals week, with projects and papers due as well. This morning, the computer literacy teaching team is grading the Computer Literacy 2 semester projects. As usual, we've got an interesting variety. One group designed a restaurant using Google SketchUp, another group learned Java programming by recreating the original Frogger game, and we had another photo gallery posted on the commercial photo sharing website, SmugMug. We also had a music composition project, a how-to-play-the-cello instructional DVD, and three publications -- a graphic novel, a fashion magazine, and a photography book highlighting cultural diversity at Uni. As in past years, some groups used various software packages to create game boards based on long-time favorites. This semester we saw Uni Life, Uni Risk, and Uni Clue. Here are two of the possible murder weapons in the Uni-ized game of Clue:



I'm not sure how death-by-protrator works, but I can totally see it with that heavy volume of the Readers' Guide. And, given these two mugs, who would you pick as the likely murder suspect?



Maybe it's time for me to dye my hair blue and get some facial piercings.
