200  point pile

 

I’m trying lots of different approaches that I hope will help you learn the material. We are also trying different technologies for collaboration. I realize that not everybody wants, or can do everything proposed. So I’m offering a buffet of possibilities for you to choose from. The goal is to amass 200 points by the end of the quarter from any of these sources. You don’t have to do anything in particular.  You can get your points without doing a project if you want or you can work with someone on the projects. 

If you see a project you want- edit the wiki and add your name.     *point values may change based on the complexity of the projects. We won't know until you start.)*
