Exams and grading
1) This is a graded class.
2) There will be homework. We will discuss homeworks in class, as well
as there being some homeworks graded. Your homework grade will be based
both on submitted homeworks, and on class homework presentations. It will
account for 30% of your grade.
3) There will be a project. It will account for 35% of your grade.
It could involve developing notes for some topic in the class, or a computing
exercise, or it could involve doing an actual project. It will be due
some time a week or so before Thanksgiving, probably. Students registered
for credit, let me know if
you have any ideas what you want to do.
4) There will be a final exam-- it will count for 35% of your grade.
It will be an open-book exam. It is currently expected that it will be an
in-class exam at the UW official time and place.
Office hours
See me after class, for brief questions, or to make an appointment if
a longer time is needed. If more office hours are needed, I will set
an official time.
