counter suggestion - argue with thew dept to teach both every year:

I think this is not the way we want to go - we are as a graphics group offering less
area related courses compared to others (e.g. UVic).  Reducing the count further is IMHO
not what we want. Instead what we should try to do IMHO is to try to get both courses taught
each year. I am not aware of any other 4th year courses which are taught every two years
on a regular basis. I am currently changing the pre-reqs for 424 hoping it will attract more
students (+ my impression is that if it is given every year and not every two the numbers will not 
go down). 426 actually has I believe a reasonable number of students as is (compared to
other electives). So, I would actually approach curriculum ctte or who ever is in charge of these
decisions regarding teaching both every year. As I recall the problem in the past was that the dept was short
on faculty teaching undergrad, but with a whole bunch of us becoming associate and teaching more this 
might not be an issue anymore.

If everyone is in favor of trying this, I would be OK with taking the lead on approaching the relevant
people in the dept. Or perhaps someone physically there can do it...

CPSC 314 Planning

Wiemanization: learning goals

Wiemanization: ideas

• intro tutorials and assignment about code development in C (SVN, Eclipse IDE, debugging skills)
• tutorial and assignment writing shaders
• worksheets that students do in groups to learn by themselves about topics

Advanced graphics course: topics and comments

This is a suggestion to have an advanced graphics course, which is taught every year,
as a replacement for CPSC 424 and CPSC 426.  Add your comments here.
