Wireless devices, mobile systems - they are all the rage. IT programs face the question, "Where can we introduce these topics into the existing program if a new, dedicated course is not immediately available?" The IT program at Texas Christian University (TCU) has addressed the issue by including wireless device programming in the web technologies course sequence.Computer Information Technology (CITE) majors at TCU are required to take a Scripting Fundamentals and Interface Design course, followed by a Web Technologies course. Students entering the course sequence have vastly different backgrounds and levels of enthusiasm for traditional web-related courses. In order to enhance the second course, it was decided to include web projects that require programming wireless devices. This paper discusses the addition of wireless device programming to the web technologies course sequence and the impact it has had on student interest and curriculum content.
