I'm an Associate Lecturer in the School of Computer Science.

I was the Assessment Coordinator for the school in Semester 1. You should speak to Brad Alexander about any assessment issues for 2009. I can explain any details of our policies on assessment and examination, if you have questions, but any course-specific issues should first be directed to the course lecturers. New students should familiarise themselves with the course outlines of their courses and the student handbook, as these should answer most, if not all, of their questions on assessment.

If you don't see anything that really appeals in those lists, I'm generally willing to discuss other ideas - especially if you prepare yourself with some reading before you show up! Last year, my two students achieved excellent results but they did work hard for it. If you're looking for interesting projects, with the possibility of challenging extensions, come and see me.
