MCOM43 Concierge Project Date Revisions

Given the delayed launch of the two sites being used for the concierge project / holiday Monday the dates have been slightly changed and so has the grading system (based on class feedback survey). Here is the New Project Outline >>.

Course Delivery Revisions

As I mentioned in the course feedback post, I have revised the delivery and assignment schedule. The main change is less blog posts and more in-class assignments. Thank you for your input.
