TEAM PROJECT:
The team project in CSE 412/598 involves the development of a database
application using the Microsoft Access relational database system. The
incorporation of the semester-long team project into the course is part
of a funded grant that was received by Dr. Suzanne Dietrich and Dr. Susan
Urban from the National Science Foundation for the purpose of incorporating
cooperative learning concepts and hands-on database experience into the
undergraduate educational process. The project is also designed to allow
students to experience different leadership roles and to develop
communication skills, in addition to the development of technical knowledge
about database systems. The project is divided into three major phases.Teams
will be formed and phase 1 of the project will begin by the second week of
the semester. Students that drop after teams are formed will receive
a grade of E in the course.
EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION:
As a computing professional who must effectively work together with
others, you are expected to use appropriate language (written or oral) to
communicate your ideas. Inappropriate language includes profanity as well as words that are biased or slanted (racially, sexually, ethnically, etc.). You
should try to understand another person's point of view and anticipate what they might feel is inappropriate. In CSE 412, you are expected to use appropriate language in all written assignments and in all written and oral communication with peers, instruc
tors, and teaching assistants. Use of inappropriate language will result in your withdrawal from the class.
CLASSROOM BEHAVIOR AND PARTICIPATION:
Due to the group project and in-class group study problems, class
participation is strongly encouraged. Points will be deducted from
an individual’s grade on the phases of the group project for lack of
participation in in-class group activities. Students are also expected to
come to each class on time and avoid disruptive side
conversations.
MISCELLANEOUS NOTES:
- No audit registrations allowed
- Students are responsible for protecting their work - both
hard copy (save old copies) and electronic versions (use security
provided by operating system).
- This syllabus represents the current status of the course and
may be changed.
