* Since you are doing all the work this week to prepare presentations, I've finally got some time available to grade question 3 from the mid-term. Expect them back soon, and I apologize for the delay. ''Thanks''.
 
 
* As announced in class, assignment 5 will be optional. The grades for the assignment portion of the course will be best 4 assignments submitted, so each assignment counts 5%. Now I will make the deal even better for you: if you submitted 5 assignments over the semester, then the assignment that was not used in the best 4, will be a bonus grade, weighing 5%. ''Example'':
** you submit 5 assignments and got: 50%, 60%, 70%, 80% and 90% respectively
** the assignment portion of your course grade will be (60+70+80+90)/4 x 0.20 = 15%
** you get a bonus grade of 50 * 0.05 = 2.5%
:If you hand in 4 or fewer assignments, then there is no bonus grade. This is one way you can boost your grade if you didn't do so well in the midterm.




* Due time for presentations is now 7pm the day before: no exceptions after that. Future groups, please make sure your names appear on one of the slides. ''Thanks''.
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.
** [[Course_project_-_2012| Here are presentations for Tuesday]]. Please print and bring to class.

|'''Important announcement regarding the take-home midterm and assignment 5.'''
From speaking with your class members, I've realized this term is just too crazy with final projects and hand-ins in your other courses. The value you will get from a take-home midterm is about that from a large assignment. Rather than having your do the take-home midterm '''and''' assignment 5, I'd rather you do one thing well. So I'd rather you do assignment 5 (which will be posted soon), so you have seen an equal number of questions from all topics in the course. The take-home would have covered the entire course and be more computer-based questions, while assignment 5 will focus only on recent material and be more hand-written questions.  
So with the take-home cancelled, this leaves 10% of your grade unaccounted for. Here's what I will do:
* Drop the take-home midterm and transfer its 10% overall course grade to:
*# the final exam, OR
*# spread it out equally over the entire course (i.e. divide your final percentage by 90 instead of 100)
: NOTE: you don't pick the option, I will give you whichever option gets you the higher final grade, on an individual basis. So some people will have option 1 and others option 2, which ever benefits your more. This obviously makes grading a bit messy for me, but I think it will work OK.
Note that assignment 5 will still be optional as described above, but I strongly recommend you do it.
