56:246 The Design of Virtual Environments
Homework #11: 
Topic of Your Choice


Write a 2-page (approximately), double-spaced essay on the topic of your choice, building on the information covered in class. Make a claim, or form a hypothesis, about something and support this claim with material from the readings. You are welcome to find other material to support your viewpoint from other sources, but avoid making arbitrary claims and unsubstantiated remarks without providing evidence to back up your point. It may be helpful to you to use this assignment to review all the material we have covered and develop a theme based on the larger concept of virtual reality, but you may choose instead to focus on a narrow aspect of VR if you prefer.

Your grade will be based on:

The clarity of the point you wish to argue: 25%
Support for the point garnered from the readings and from other material: 25%
The clarity of exposition: 25%
Grammar and spelling: 25%

The assignment is due, as an email attachement (MS Word preferred), to Geb-Thomas@uiowa.edu, by 5:00 pm, Monday, 12/6/02.
