Well Projects and teaching programming is different. They are already taught in C/C++ and when they come up with a project in PHP & MySQL why should anyone be restricted.
And the current scenario in academic projects is nothing but you go to some institute pay 10000 per head and get a done project. So instead of that let the students do something themselves. In our college(Sree Chithra Thirunal, Pappanamcode, Trivandrum) we had the freedom, many did their project in PHP & MySQL, and well coding is not a big thing. The thing is about having logic and if a student is able to implement the logic in a formal language then he should be given a chance, provided the project is unique and has its value. So it doesn't mean that all should be web based projects, they are not so good, let them also learn drawing the window borders and such things too. So allote it to 1 or 2 on a strict basis. We need non-web applications too. -- Anoop Jacob Thomas --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ "Freedom is the only law".
