It’s a special interest group of www.acm.org, the leading professional organization in the field of computer applications.
•Look over the range of articles and other resources linked there.
•Look over the blogs, the news stories, and the background information. Follow up links that interest you. In general, become familiar with its contents.
•Look over the career links. Anything interest you? Any interesting themes there?
•These resources are free to you, but they cost something to assemble and maintain. Look over the commercial links on this site. See what’s being offered, and to whom. Think about why they’re paying for the privilege of putting their names in front of you.
SLP Assignment Expectations
Prepare a paper on the www.acm.org website addressing these topics.
•summary description of its structure and purpose
•its overall “look and feel” and apparent target audience
•what you find useful about this site
•links there that you either did or intend to follow up
•any other things about the site that you find interesting
•bottom-line evaluation of its value to you
The last point is very important. Be honest and direct; your assessment is helpful to you and to others. If you don’t find it helpful, say so and why, and try to explain what you would find more useful in its place. But also do try to remember also that your education isn’t yet finished, that things you don’t understand now and don’t yet see the value of may turn out later on to be relevant and useful, and that the site’s creators may know more about the topic and the profession than you do yet.
