* The [[Self-directed learning project - 2012| final memo regarding the SDL project]] has been posted. One important point was omitted:
::For the HAZOP study: please investigate only one unit, 2 nodes, 3 parameters per node, and 3 guide words.

* '''<span style="color:#FF9900">More information added:</span>''': For the SDL project presentations: a good rule of thumb for presenters is that you talk about a slide for about 1.5 to 3 minutes. That implies you need 5 to 7 slides for the 10 minutes of talking, and 1 or 2 extra for the class activity: so a '''total of about 8 slides'''. There are very few exceptions to this guideline, so please don't generate a lot of slide material: this is one case where "less is more". Another point is on font size. If you cannot read your slide when standing 2 meters away from your computer monitor, then the letters are too small.
** [[Self-directed_learning_project_-_2012 | Slides for the group presentations are being posted]]. Please check back for updates.
** A note to future groups: '''please have your slides emailed to me by 20:00 the day before'''.

* '''<span style="color:#008888">Updated</span>''': Note regarding the last class: the last class for 4N4 is on Monday, 03 December, at 10:00 in JHE 342 (tutorial time slot). There was no other way to schedule this given the large number of groups presenting. Group A1 will present the last SDL report, then I will talk about the final exam. The class will be video recorded for those that cannot make it to the tutorial time. I will also answer any questions by email for those that can't make it. The slides for the [[Course wrap-up for 2012|class are here]].

  • One final hand-in is due for this course, other than your project: it is a course reflection. Due any time between now and 03 December. Please fill in this electronic form for your reflection. This form covers 3 areas:
You might want to wait until just before the final project hand-in so you can evaluate your peers. Please note that the reflection counts about 4% of your overall grade, and the peer evaluation is mandatory.


For the HAZOP study: please investigate only one unit, 2 nodes, 3 parameters per node, and 3 guide words.
