A belated congrats to all of the EECS182/SI182 students on finishing the semester. For those not familiar with the course, SI182 is an intro to programming course in the informatics program at UM. Paul Resnick and I taught it this past semester, and arranged the course around pulling data from public feeds, processing this data, and presenting it again, online, in a way that adds value.

Here’s a sampling of the final projects:

Space News Aggregator, Ben Schoenfeldt
Financial Buy/Sell Recommender, Jennifer Wolf
Boo-Moo: Books and Movies Recommendation, Azalea Ayuningtyas
Aggregator, Jia Jin Kee
SouthQuad menu to SMS (presentation), HeeJung Byun

Also, a huge thanks to Chuck Severance, who got this course started and gave us early chapters of his book Using Google App Engine, which gave us the confidence to use App Engine in the course and which we were able to rely on for class readings.
