 | As described in the syllabus, to get grad credit for this course (by 
		registering for CMSC 838B), students must do the following things: 
			
			Read the research papers 
			that I assign below, and write a 200-400 word synopsis of each one.  
			Submit them on paper in class on the date due.
			Make a 5 minute presentation 
			to the class summarizing one research paper that you read.
			Build a research prototype 
			exploring a new interface idea, or replicating existing work 
			described in the literature
			Write a (8 page, CHI format) 
			paper summarizing the research field in an area related to this 
			class. The papers are the following:
