Project 1: A New Hope
> 1. What should you do about exam conflicts?
Contact Laurie Buck two weeks in advance.
> 2. What are 3 reasons to pick up graded work?
Reason 1: Verify that points are correctly added and recorded.
Reason 2: See what mistakes were made and learn from them.
Reason 3: Read program grading guides to learn pitfalls to avoid.
> 3. Which is the only public lab with CS100 consultants?
Carpenter lab, in the basement of the Carpenter Hall (Engineering
Library).
> 4. What is the process for submitting regrade requests?
> Include the time limit.
Within a week after graded work is returned,
go to Carpenter, get and fill out a regrade request form,
and physically hand to a consultant the form stapled to your work.
> 5. Describe the differences between the programming projects and
> exercises.
Projects are larger. Since exercises are shorter, their due dates
tend to be shorter, and there tends to be more of them.
> 6. Where and when are the review sessions for exams scheduled?
Baker 200, 3-5pm, each Sunday immediately preceding an exam.
> 7. When is Prelim 1?
Tues 2/15, 7:30pm.
> 8. If you get 3/4/0, 4/4/0, and 5/2/0 on the first 3 programming
> projects, what is your maximum project score for the entire
> course?
The total score for the first 3 is 3+4 + 4+4 + 5+2 = 22.
Perfect scores for the remaining 4 would contribute another 40 points.
Since 22+40 = 62 is above 55, the number required for a perfect score,
the maximum project score is all 20 out of a possible 20 points.
[There would also be 62-55 = 7 bonus points, recorded separately.]
> 9. Suppose you get 100, 90, 80, and 70 on Prelims 1, 2, 3, and
> the Final, respectively, and perfect exercise and project
> scores. Compute your raw numerical score for CS100 this
> semester.
Since the final is the lowest score, it is worth only 20 points, not 30.
Therefore, the grade formula yields
10 + 20 + .1*100 + .2*90 + .2*80 + .2*70 = 30 + 10 + 18 + 16 + 14 = 88.
> 10. Given a choice between receiving 80 core and 3 bonus points versus
> 83 core and no bonus points, which do you feel is most beneficial?
83 core points is better: Bonus points are worth much less than core
points.
> 11. State five options for obtaining an answer to question you
> might have during CS100 this semester.
Option 1: Course website.
Option 2: Course newsgroup.
Option 3: Consultants in Carpenter.
Option 4: Office hours (of instructor, recitation instructor, or TA).
Option 5: Tutoring appointment (with recitation instructor or TA).
> 12. What is the difference between tutoring appointments and open
> office hours, and how do you schedule tutoring appointments?
> As part of your answer, explain if you are allowed to go to
> tutoring appointments in a group.
Open: anyone can just go and walk-in -- public.
Tutoring: must sign-up at least 24 hours in advance -- private,
but groups are allowed by mutual consent of people in the group.
> 13. What material are you tested on? e.g. lecture? reading?
Lecture, section, exercises, projects, past exams, explicitly designated
reading assignments
> 14. For e-mail/newsgroup posts, which of the following must you
> do, and which must you not do? Choose from the following list:
> MIME, HTML, put new text at the top, delete unneeded quoted
> material, use auto-wrap.
Do not do any of the following:
use MIME, use HTML, put new text at top, use auto-wrap.
Do:
delete unneeded quoted material.
(Interleave new text after the relevant quoted text.)
> 15. If your partner on a particular project receives a penalty for not
> following academic integrity, are you subject to the same penalty?
Yes.
