The objective of this project is to modify the existing college level MUDES  so that it is appropriate for use by students in the grade level at which you teach.

Working in groups is encouraged.  Be reminded however that there can be only one valid copy of a XID data base.  XID data bases can NOT be merged!  The best way to share work activity is to transfer the "active" copy among group members via a 3.5 inch disk.

At the end of the course I will provide you with a complete copy of the existing MUDES and a copy of your MUDES PROJECT on CD-ROM.
