For Your Information:For Your Information:Thursday Project Day is 20% of your

class time per week.Therefore, it is 20% of your grade.

I would rather see you make one quality project this quarter than see you make several sloppy ones.

If you are using your time wisely, one or two projects per quarter is enough.
