The following is a basic description of one of the five project options available this term.
The general project 1 rules and hardware rules apply to whichever specific project option you choose.


"Teacher's Assistant" - PDA based
There are many things that a faculty handles in class that might be made easier if they had a computer easily available. For example, if you get back an exam and add up your points and find that you should have gotten a higher grade, it would be nice for the faculty member to record that modified grade right then and there. Another example is that a faculty member might count class participation as part of the grade - wouldn't it be nice for them to have an easy way to keep a record of each time you participate in a meaningful way? These are just two examples - there are many more. Your job is to design and implement the interface on the PDA as well as enable that application to interact with the faculty member's office PC (laptop or desktop) that might have things such as the actual records.

If there are things such as a bar code reader, digital camera or other (available) device that you feel the PocketPC will need to have, you can specify that as part of your project and then simulate the existance of it when you are implementing your project.
