Hello!
An email was sent to all students with a link where you can find your seating allocation for the ENGG1811 Final Exam.
For those that missed it, here is the link:

Assignment 2 results are now available. The class did very well for this assignment.
You can collect a report on your work where you will find your mark, computer test results, style mark and comments from your tutor. To collect the report, go to the Assignment 2 page and click on the "Collect Submission" tab.
If you have questions about your mark and feedback in the report, please speak with your lab tutor. However, if you are in fri11-strings, your assignment was marked by a different tutor; you can find the name of your marker on the feedback page mentioned in the next paragraph.
I have created a web page which contains some feedback on the assignment, in particular on some edge cases. The page will cover how we tested your code, the test cases for three functions, as well as my solution. Please note that my solution should only be used as guide as there are many methods to write the code. You will find the link to that page near the top of the Assignment 2 page.
Note that we are yet to perform plagiarism check on the assignment submissions so the results may change after we have gone through the checks. I want to stress that, if your submitted work is your own, there is nothing to worry about.
The solution to the past exams is now available from the past exams page on the course website.
You can check your lab marks (Python labs; Self-direct labs 1 & 2) using this link . Labs are worth 20% of the overall assessment. At the link provided, you will see a field called lab_total which is your aggregated lab mark out of 20.
If you have questions, you can attend one of the following pre-exam consultations. These are one-to-one online consultations run by the lecturer. You can join these consultations by using the same Zoom link for the lectures (See Lectures on course website for the link). You will be placed in a waiting room and the lecturer will help you in a first-come-first-served basis. The consultation times are:
You can also continue to ask questions on the forum.
Our target is to release Assignment 2 marks by the end of this week.
Self-directed Lab 1 results are now available.
You can collect a report on your work where you will find your mark and the computer test result. To collect the report, go to the Self-directed Lab 1 page and click on the "Collect Submission" tab.
If you have questions about your mark and feedback in the report, please send a private message on the forum for the lecturer.
I've posted two past exam papers on the course website. At the menu at the course website: "Course Work > Past exams"
Please note that Lab 10 has been posted a moment ago. For this lab, you will be given two Python programming problems to solve. After that, the tutors will discuss the solution and mark your work. Note that there are no online multiple choice questions for this week.
I ask you go through Lab 10 before you attend your lab to understand what the expectations are. If you have questions on Lab 10, you can ask on the forum.
The purpose of this message is to let you know how the course will be run in Week 10 (next week).
I will also be providing you with a sample exam in Week 10.
Lastly, a reminder that Assignment 2 is due on Friday of Week 10 at 5pm and Self-directed Lab 2 is due on Monday of Week 11 at 5pm. Note also that the deadline for the Self-directed Lab 2 is strict and no late submissions will be accepted.
Assignment 1 results are now available. The class did very well for this assignment.
You can collect a report on your work where you will find your mark, computer test results, style mark and comments from your tutor. To collect the report, go to the Assignment 1 page and click on the "Collect Submission" tab.
If you have questions about your mark and feedback in the report, please speak with your tutor.
I have created a web page which contains some general feedback on the assignment. The page will cover how we tested your code, the test cases for two functions, as well as my solution. Please note that my solution should only be used as guide as there are many methods to write the code. You will find the link to that page near the top of the Assignment 1 page.
Note that we are yet to perform plagiarism check on the assignment submissions so the results may change after we have gone through the checks. I want to stress that, if your submitted work is your own, there is nothing to worry about.
I have updated the Assignment 2 spec to include a background section on tuples. This is so that you know how to obtain the number of entries in each dimension of an array.
Assignment 2 has been released. To view it, go to the course website and look for the Assignment 2 link on the menu.
I've also made a short video to introduce Assignment 2 and to give you some general tips. The most important two general tips are: (1) Start your assignment early; and, (2) Incremental development. A specific technical tip is to use numpy as much as possible. You can find the link to the recording on the Assignment 2 page.
You can get help on Assignment 2 via the Course Forum and Help Sessions.
The second online module on the topic of Matlab has been released. The module has been filed under Labs (under Week 7's entry) on the course website.
There is an assessable lab (Self-directed lab 2) associated with this module. This self-directed lab is hosted on the Matlab Grader platform. You will soon be receiving an email invitation for you to enrol in Matlab Grader.
Please note that the submission deadline for Self-directed Lab 2 is 5 pm, Monday 20 Nov 2023 (i.e. Monday of Week 11). This is a hard deadline.
Hello Everyone!
I hope everyone is using their flex week however they deem it useful!
For weeks 6, 7, 9 and 10, ENGG1811 is running in person help sessions in K17-G05 from 2pm to 4pm. This is the best time to get assessment and lab help from tutors!
The first session is tomorrow. Please attend help sessions sooner rather than later, as they become extremely busy closer to assessment due dates.
A map showing how to access the room can be found
here
.
We have also started additional online help sessions. More details can be found
here
.
Week 6 is Flexibility Week. These activities will not run: lectures, labs and live coding sessions. The following activities will still take place:
Enjoy your flexibility week and see you again in Week 7.
There are a couple of minor updates on Assignment 1 and you can see them on the Assignment 1 page.
ENGG1811 has two online modules. Each online module consists of a number of video lectures for self-learning and an assessable lab.
The first online module on the topic of spreadsheets has been released. The module has been filed under Labs (under Week 5's entry) on the course website. The web page for the module has a link that will take you to the assessable lab, which we call Self-directed Lab 1.
Please note that the submission deadline for Self-directed Lab 1 is 5 pm, Fri 3 Nov 2023 .
Please note that there are some changes to the PASS (Peer Assisted Study Sessions) sessions from Week 5:
You can find the updates in the Learning Support menu item on the course website.
Hello!
Help sessions are beginning this week. Help sessions are a great way to get additional help from a tutor with assignments, labs and other academic questions. I strongly encourage you to attend sessions earlier in the term, as when we get closer to the due date of the assignment, they are very full and tutors may not have as much time help you.
For the next two weeks we are running a session online on Friday 4-6pm. This will be accessible via BBCollaborate.
More details can be found here:
https://webcms3.cse.unsw.edu.au/ENGG1811/23T3/reso...
Assignment 1 has been released. To view it, go to the course website and look for the Assignment 1 link on the menu.
I've also made a short video to introduce Assignment 1 and to give you some general tips. The most important two general tips are: (1) Start your assignment early; and, (2) Incremental development. You can find the link to the recording on the Assignment 1 page.
We will also be starting the Help Sessions this week. These are sessions where you can get one-on-one help from tutors on assignments especially but also on other academic aspects of this course.
In ENGG1811, we use various channels to support your learning. You can find Information on these channels on the Learning Support page on the course website. Two updates:
I've just posted the final version of the code that we have worked on in the lecture this week. You can find them under Lectures, Week 1.
We will be using the same modus operandi for the rest of the course. Preliminary version of the code will be posted before the lecture and final version will be posted after the last lecture of the week.
In additional to lectures and labs, we also support your learning through the course forum and live coding sessions . You can find information on these two support channels under the menu item "Learning Support" at the course website. A direct link is here .
As I mentioned in the lecture this morning, I have posted some exercises on the course forum. If you go to the course forum, click on the "Exercises" link on the left, you will find them. Exercises will be posted each week in the same way. Programming is a practical task, the more you work on it, the better you become.
I'd like to encourage you to attend the weekly Live Coding Sessions which take place on Mondays 5-6pm, starting from Week 2. Students in the past have found these sessions very helpful for them to learn how to solve coding problems. These sessions are online and you can join using a link on the ENGG1811 Moodle page. These sessions will be recorded.
The lecture recording for today's lecture is now available at the Echo360 site which you can access via the ENGG1811 Moodle page. Future lecture recordings will be available in the same way.
The lecture materials for Week 1 are now available at the course website under the menu item "Lectures". I've also included a zip file (code_prelim.zip) which includes some Python code. I will show you how we will be using them in Friday's lecture. Please note that you need to log-in to see the materials.
A reminder to install the software package Anaconda before your first lecture or first lab, whichever is earlier. Instructions for installing Anaconda can be found at the "Getting Started" link on the course website.
See you on Wed at noon, either in-person or online, for the first lecture. In-person lectures are in Matthew B and the zoom link for online lectures can be found under "Lectures" on the course website.
Welcome to ENGG1811!
I hope you are ready to learn some computing with us for this term. My name is Chun Tung Chou and I am the lecturer for this course. There are a number of important points that I would like to let you know.
I look forward to seeing you on Wed at noon for the first lecture. And, please do get Anaconda installed before that.
