Electronic submissions will only be accepted via Google Docs, or more correctly, Google Drive. Please do not email electronic documents to us.

Please share your document, with "Editing permission" with the following 2 addresses (do not use our McMaster email addresses):

  • kgdunn@gmail.com
  • mcmasterche4mta@gmail.com

Other guidelines:

  • The document title must be of the form: 2012-4M3-Lastname1-Lastname2-Assignment-NN
  • Rather start and finish your submission in Google Docs. Some students have reported problems when importing equations and tables from native Word documents. Google Docs does a good, but not perfect job of importing them. Do not allow yourself to get caught with badly formatted documents just before your submission is due.
  • Do not share ZIP files, Word documents or PDF documents via Google Drive as your submission. We cannot comment effectively on these types of files.
  • From assignment 3 onwards it will be mandatory to use a native Google Docs document so the TA and myself can comment on your work, as if it were a paper submission.
  • There is really no excuse for improper notation: for example, please use \(\text{m}^3\) instead of m^3; the same applies to Greek letters (e.g. do not use u if you intend \(\mu\).


Let me know of any other hints you wish to share with your colleagues on how to effectively use Google Docs.
