So what usually happens when you take a literature course? You read a bunch of books, maybe some poetry, a few essays. You take an exam now and then. And you write a paper. It doesn't have to be that way, not completely, anyway. You've got to read, of course (after all, it is a literature course). But who says you have to write a paper to prove that you've gotten something out of the material?

The last few semesters, some students have opted to skip the term paper in favor of actually performing the works they're studying. Check out the project pages below, and you'll see what we mean. We think it's an exciting way for students to learn something about technology and gain a better appreciation for literature. See if you don't agree.
