Today Professor is going to help you with your project.

You should be preparing to present your project in phases.

A) Each of the seven layers of your project is worth 21 Points

7 X 20 = 140points- You only need 100 Points, this means you can get 14 points per layer and still get 100 points.

You must present each section of your project in order to get credit for it.

Remember that each layer should be related to the 7X2 C's

The 7x2 C's are: 
content, context
correctness, credibility
currency, continuity
completeness, coverage
consistency, conciseness
compelling, complement
community, customization
 
We went to NYU's website and did a search for the Courant 
School of Mathematical Sciences.
 
http://www.nyu.edu/search?query=Courant&submit=go

The URL above performed the search.

Search? - means that a search query was performed

Query=Courant - This is the variable we searched for.

&- The ampersand (&) is a delimiter (a separator) because spaces are not allowed in programming. 

submit=go - this is another variable enforcing an action on the submit button.

We looked at the search engine on NYU

 

We found that not all of the links on NYU's search page work... We clicked on A9 and received the following,.

NYU is using a Google Search Appliance to index and search their site.

<form method="get" action="http://google.nyu.edu/search">

The loop and the amount of work that it can do makes the computer better than a human being when processing data,.
