* Updated details regarding [[Course_project_-_2012 | the course project are posted]]. Please note the deadline of 18 October for the project outline.


This course website is an archive of the website, as used in 2012, 2013 and 2014. It is still open for your reference. Please [[Separation_Processes:_4M3:About |feel free to use these materials]] as you wish.

''Kevin,
 
''Friday night's 4M midterm was too hard! More specifically, the 24 mark question was very unfair. It is material that was covered on Thursday - ONE day before the midterm! Its not fair to test us on this and make it worth 24 marks! Normally, our other profs give us at least a week to digest the material before it is covered on a midterm. Other than that, the question itself was tough and many of my colleagues also were confused by it. Basically, if we did not get this question, we automatically drop to 76%, not taking into account other mistakes.''
 
''Please - reconsider the marking allocation of this question !''
 
''The other thing - the midterm was way too long. I understand that you gave us extra time but 2 hours and 45 minutes is almost 3 hours - which is the duration of a final exam! This is not to be expected for a 15% midterm.''
 
''Those are some thoughts - I would appreciate your addressing them!''
 
''Thanks.''}}
 
I appreciate and take any feedback seriously. I'm interested in whether this is one data point (1 student out of 80), or if these issues are of general concern. Feel free to [http://learnche.mcmaster.ca/feedback-questions message me via the course website] to address the issues of whether question 3 was (a) unfair (b) confusing, (c) too soon; and lastly (d) whether the midterm was too long. I will discuss these in class on Tuesday.
 
In the mean time, please review the [[Written_midterm_-_2012 | midterm solutions]]; I will take up question 3 in class on Tuesday. Please redo this question and hand it in at class on Tuesday morning as question 2 of assignment 4. You must do it on your own to maximize your learning. You may hand it in electronically if you cannot make it to class.
 
<!-- * There will be a pop-quiz at the start of the class on Friday that will count as question 1 of assignment 4. It must be handed in at class, and it will be ''similar'' to this one:
{{quote|A membrane operating with pure feed of water produced a flux of 0.20 \(\text{kg.s}^{-1}\text{.m}^{-2}\); this was with a pressure difference of 20kPa. When operated with a protein-water mixture and a 20 kPa pressure difference, a flux of 0.04 \(\text{kg.s}^{-1}\text{.m}^{-2}\) was measured at steady state. What would be the expected flux for this same protein-water mixture, but at a pressure difference of 30kPa?}}
