  abstract =     "In an effort to improve the communication skills of
                 students, many universities are requiring computer
                 science educators to include writing and speaking
                 components in their courses. This paper describes an
                 alternative to the classic term paper assignment. A
                 ``student conference'' approach has been successfully
                 employed in a junior-level computer systems course for
                 five semesters. Each student performs an implementation
                 and experimental study, then writes a research-style
                 technical paper on this work. Students also participate
                 in an anonymous review process, revise their own
                 papers, and make oral presentations of their work. The
                 structure of this conference approach, representative
                 assignments, and observations are presented.",
