What are the tasks, assignments and the projects?
The tasks are small duties to prepare assignments and projects, to build the course and keep it going.
The assignments are jobs that require more time, effort and research than the tasks. The most requiring parts of this course are the two team projects.

The tasks are explained in the course emails, the assignments and projects on the blog home page.

To save the students from confusion all the tasks, assignments and projects with deadlines are quickly found on the blog Tasks and Assignments page.
