Assignment 3 feedback and Consultation on Monday

Posted by Serge Gaspers Saturday 19 October 2019, 01:00:51 AM.

Hi,

Individual feedback on Assignment 3 is available in the usual space. Median: 94; average: 82.1667.

As announced during the last lecture, we will have a consultation session on Monday from 12:00 until 12:30 in office 506 of building K17, optionally until 13:00 in case of high demand.

On Wednesday, we have the mid-session quiz. Please bring your student ID card, a pen, and any notes, books, printouts you might want to use, including the glossary, your answers to the trial mid-session quiz, etc., but no electronic material except UNSW approved calculators and watches.

Kind regards,
Serge

Feedback on Assignment 2 and groups for Assignment 4

Hi,

You should now be able to see individual feedback on your Assignment 2 here: https://cgi.cse.unsw.edu.au/~cs6741/19T3/view/ The median mark was 97.5 and the average was 80.125.

The groups for Assignment 4 are also known now. Each enrolled student should have received a Bitbucket invite to a Git repository that you will use to submit Assignments 4 and 5. The invites went to zID@unsw.edu.au.

Kind regards,
Serge

Exercise sheets

Posted by Serge Gaspers Wednesday 09 October 2019, 05:36:39 PM.

Tomorrow, we will start the lecture with exercise sheets 3 and 4. It is an excellent idea to try the exercises yourselves before we see the solution in class. This helps you prepare for the mid-session quiz, even if you only partially manage to solve them on your own.

Hi,

You should be able to see individual feedback on your Assignment 1 here: https://cgi.cse.unsw.edu.au/~cs6741/19T3/view/
Just a heads-up: I am trying out a new system for providing student feedback; if there are any issues, please let me know.

The median mark was 87 and the average mark was 60.

Kind regards,
Serge

This is a friendly reminder that Assignment 1 is due on Tuesday, 24 Oct, at 5:59pm.

Note that the first two assignments will be used to determine groups for assignments 4 and 5, where a group consists of students who performed similarly in assignments 1 and 2. I would be very interested in your feedback on this method of forming groups.

The use of WebCMS3 forums is encouraged for any questions, feedback, and discussions related to the course. But feel free to contact me in other ways (in person, email, via a representative, etc.), especially if privacy is a concern.
