Final
Project
We’ll
talk
more
about
this
after
you’ve
gained
some
of
the
“how
to”
skills.
For
the
Dinal
project,
I
want
you
to
have
a
chance
to
get
started
making
a
website
that
has
to
do
with
something
you’re
passionate
about.
Choose
something
that
you
will
feel
proud
to
have
spent
time
on
as
a
university
student...something
that
you
can
show
your
kids
(or
yourself)
in
the
future
and
say,
“yeah...I
made
that”.
The
only
big
rule
is
that
it
be
something
that
will
help
someone
else
in
some
way.
