COP4813 Assignment15 – Learning Introspective

Objectives

1. Understand requirements of web development

Assignment

You are going to write a single spaced one page introspective of the material that you have learned in this class and also of the skills that you still must learn to be employable as a web systems programmer. I recommend looking at the job postings for web developers and software developers to get an idea of the requirements.

Even if you are not planning on a career path in web development – you should have an understanding of the requirements of these jobs (or jobs in whatever IT field you select) – and what is necessary to be fully employable upon graduation.

You will be putting your results onto your web site (as a page) and submitting a link to this page.
