Visit the Independent Study link on this site to view the work of two of our students, Danny Aponte and Nate Sylvester.  Danny did an independant study in Flash Programming while Nate did his in PHP.   You might need to download the Flash plug in to see the Flash Movies.  Nate's web site is stored on a server inside the firewall so you must be on campus to view it.  Matt Palmer did one in PHP  this summer but it is not available.  Tony Franco did an independant study in advanced web design where he used Dreamweaver, Fireworks, and advanced Flash tehcniques.  Daniel Sounthonevichith also did an independant study in PHP at the same time during the fall.  The last part of their proect was combined and they designed a site for one of the local bands here in town.  We will place a link when it is on the server and ready for viewing.
