419 – final

By candy - Last updated: Sunday, July 12, 2009

I made the dropbox, and asked you to label the files so that they all begin with your surname-, with the actual report as surname-report, and the others surname-xxx (whatever seems logical).
Terry will not be in this coming Wednesday, so if you have anything physical that I need to see, please e-mail or call me [...]

419 – last stuff

By candy - Last updated: Thursday, July 9, 2009

I put the PPT handouts for the last two days in Moodle. The schedule for presentations in the wiki. See you tomorrow (oh, wait, that would actually be today, since it is 12:05am).

419 – presentation schedule

By candy - Last updated: Tuesday, July 7, 2009

I made up titles and put up a “conference” schedule on the front page of the wiki – http://gslis.simmons.edu/wikis/LIS419/Main_Page.
Today I will be focusing on finishing the few I have left of Assignment 1, and the interim report.

419 – project presentations

By candy - Last updated: Monday, July 6, 2009

You will each present your project in class in the morning of Saturday July 11. A few things about that:
1) Time
There are 8 of you, so plan on no more than 15 minutes including a couple of minutes for questions.
2) Order
I will let you know the order on the wiki tomorrow.
3) Content
Your presentation should describe [...]

419 – screencasts

By candy - Last updated: Thursday, July 2, 2009

I have placed links to two screencasts in Moodle. The first one is the same as the one that covered relevance ranking in LIS 415 last semester, so if you were in that course, you should be able to breeze through it as a refresher. It also includes a little background on visualization, but since [...]

419 – Assignment 3

By candy - Last updated: Sunday, June 28, 2009

I did not change anything in Assignment 3 (I had alluded to possibly changing one of the online services – but I have decided not to).

419 – slides et al.

By candy - Last updated: Thursday, June 25, 2009

I put all the slides up for the coming weekend in Moodle. I also put up a handout in connection with Friday night’s session – you would enjoy it more if you printed or otherwise had the handout. I also made the dropbox and discussion forum for the interim reports.

419 – outline

By candy - Last updated: Thursday, June 25, 2009

I futzed around with the outline of topics a bit, as I realized that I was packing a bit much in this Friday and Saturday. “Associative retrieval” will be screencast, and “Taxonomy and guided navigation” has moved to the last week. The readings moved with them. Nothing else changed.

419 – concepts

By candy - Last updated: Wednesday, June 24, 2009

Hi guys – just a reminder that you have something coming up, and I quote from the course outline, “By Jun 26, 6:00pm – Have Assignment 2 concept analyses done and revised by me”. These need to be sent to me via e-mail, not put into Moodle (review Asst 2). Just sayin’.

419 – latest stuff

By candy - Last updated: Wednesday, June 17, 2009

I put the slides for Friday and Saturday in Moodle – three sets. Also Assignment 3, which we will discuss. See you soon!
