| Students
in teams of two or three will be given a topic for a web site.
Students may use any WYSIWYG package for web development or
hand code in HTML. The only stipulation is that they cannot
make use of any features that would require special extensions
to be installed on a server. If they make use of features
that would require special plug-ins, it must be used with
information that can be obtained by other means from the same
site. Students will submit their site and it will be tested
from a server. Additionally the site will be tested in both
Netscape and Internet Explorer. Team sponsors will be notified
and prizes awarded at the luncheon on Saturday, November 8.
Team winners are encouraged to attend the conference to receive
their prize at the luncheon. Sponsors of all entered teams
must register for the conference and if the winning team is
not at the conference, the sponsor will receive the prize.
Team prizes
are as follows:
1st Place - $75
2nd Place - $50
3rd Place - $25
Prizes are provided through a grant from
Upsilon Pi Epsilon.
Please contact Becky Tallon with any questions.
