The dissemination of the project's research will come with the creation of a repository that allows CSE faculty members to access a web-based set of assignments. The goal of these assignments is to aid CSE faculty in redesigning their assignments, courses, and curricula in order to incorporate and enhance their students abilities to communicate and collaborate with a wide variety of audiences. The repository will be populated with assignments written and designed by both CSE and CAC faculty with the premise of integrating communication abilities while also enhancing the learning of the technical content being taught in their course and/or curriculum.

Workplace Scenario
The purpose of this assignment is to introduce four additional GRASP patterns: Polymorphism, Indirection, Pure Fabrication and Protected Variations. GRASP stands for General Responsibility Assignment Software Patterns or Principles. Recall that a pattern is a named and well-known problem/solution pair that can be applied in new contexts, with advice on how to apply it in novel situations and discussion of its trade-offs, implementations, and variations. So a pattern is not a new idea. Rather, it is a tried-and-true principle. A knowledge of patterns can help you in your future software design endeavors. To quote the author, “The critical design tool for software development is a mind well educated in design principles.”
In this memo to your supervisor you will summarize several design principles and patterns and you will explain an example of a time that you employed polymorphism and the concept behind the protected variations pattern.
