NOTE: This is a
DEEP rabbit hole
online.
It's important
that you think
about this, but
don't get lost
Objective: Find
something that
works well
enough. Lets you
get stuff done
AND won't
require too much
work.
Warning: in
school you can
often get by
with a
minimal/missing
system because
of weekly
patterns. I.e.,
"BIT 142 is due
every Monday".
White collar
jobs don't work
this way, so
practice now!!
I read "Getting
Things Done" &
loved it.
I recommend it
(you can skip
most of the book
& focus on the
two chapters
that run you
through the
system)
Need:
Track stuff I
need to do, but
am not doing
right this
instant
Track
appointments
(e.g., Google
Calendar)
Review this
regularly

Last Steps
-
Web
Hand-In for post-class exercises and for homework:
Go to the
StudentTracker web app, and create an account for
yourself, and then "enroll" in the course.
(There's a
link to
StudentTracker
on the main
page for
this course)
Please submit a .ZIP (and ONLY a .ZIP - not a .RAR, .7z, etc)
that contains the Program.cs
file, the video outline/viewing quiz .DOCX (or .PDF), any other files you wish to include, and leaves out every thing else (as
much as possible).

How to .ZIP your homework into a single file

Remember
that you
can use
an
extension
to hand
in your
work
slightly
late
(see the
lecture
1 slides
for
details).
Once you
get the
feedback
(the
grade)
from the
instructor
you have
a
limited
time to
email
your
missing
work to
the
instructor
(make
sure to
tell the
instructor
that
you're
using an
extension).
You can
use an
extension
if you
forgot
to hand
in the
entire
.ZIP
file,
and you
can
use the
extension
if you
forgot
to
include
an
entire,
specific
file.
You
CANNOT
use an
extension
to
revise
work
that you
submitted
and got
a grade
on.
This is
true as
long as
you have
extensions
left;
next
week
will be
the last
time
that
this
notice
is
posted
-
Make sure that you're working on homework
assignment #1 (abbreviated A1).
Details
are listed on the
homework assignment page.
The due date is listed on the
main page.
-
Practice
what you've
learned
Remember
that in
order to
really learn
this stuff
you're going
to need to
practice it.
Go back and
redo the
exercises
from this
lesson until
you've
really got
it down.
Go back to
the prior
lesson(s)
and review
and redo
that.
Make sure
that you've
really got
this stuff
in your head
(and
remember
that it gets
easier each
time you
redo the
work)!
