The role of projects in the computing curriculum is of great importance in enabling students to explore different issues when putting theory into practice. The Project 98 Workshop, from which this book has evolved, was held in April 1998 at the University of Sheffield. Projects in the Computing Curriculum examines experiences and ideas about the many and varied types of university projects. The papers in this volume cover a broad cross-section of project styles, presented not just by staff, but by students as well. This book provides some ideas and experiences that can be used by others in developing their use of projects in the computing curriculum. Issues addressed in the papers include: management of project work; assessment of project work; industrial projects; large group projects; and individual projects.
