Gem40, May - June 1996

Grupp A, A-M Pendrill

REDOVISNING TISDAG 4 JUNI, 9.15-14 (c:a), D3 54

Below follows an outline of seminars for the GEM40, group A. Literature used for this part:

Note that the seminars are planned so that you may share books. The three groups A, B and C read different books for the subject of each seminar. Read the whole books, but in particular the pages marked. Each group should be prepared to give a presentation for about 10-15 min about the theme from the perspective of the book, starting with the group marked. Discussions are encouraged - there should be plenty of time, and a lot to discuss!

Examination for the course involves a written project, due May 31st to me and the opponent group (to be assigned). I hope you will be able to use HTML (The language to produce WWW pages) to produce your report, and hope we can make them available on the internet. (Although it may be difficult to find free computers - let's see!) You should get comments back by Tuesday June 4th and have time to take them into accoount before producing one copy each for the other groups for the oral presentations on June 6-7.

Writing HTML
A tutorial for creating web pages, from the Maricopa Center for Learning and Instruction in Arizona at
http://www.mcli.dist.maricopa.edu/tut/
Create you own file on a disk (unit a:), edit in Word (or any text processor), save as TEXT (important!) with suffix .html (also important)
Watch you work by opening your file at "unit a:" in Netscape.
