Hi Everyone,

You should have received your final marks (except for some supplementary exam students). I hope you are happy with that.

This email should be the last one from COMP4121 22T3. I hope that you have enjoyed this course and learned something valuable from this course.

I want to take this chance to thank you all for choosing this course. Your participation and support throughout the trimester are precious to me. I am also thankful for your constructive feedback and comments in the MyExperience Survey. I promise I will try my best to improve myself in future teaching practices.

I wish you all the best of luck in the future. Have a safe and happy holiday period.

Best regards,

Shuiqiao

There will be no lecture on this Friday

Posted by Shuiqiao Yang 2 years ago.

Hi there COMP4121,

We have finished all the lectures for COMP4121. We will not have lecture on this Friday. The consultation session on this Friday will still be running.

MyExperience is still running. We have around 40% response rate now. Thanks for those who have already completed the survey.
I fully understand that it's a busy time right now, but we'd love to hear what you think . . . everyone's opinion is useful for us to update the course in the future.
The survey will be open until the 24th November. Here's the link: https://myexperience.unsw.edu.au/ . We will apply 2 bonus marks for every student if the final response rate for the MyExperience survey is over 50%.

Regards,

Shuiqiao
