Today: AE-06, maybe start Lab 08
Thursday’s quiz will use 4 previous quizzes as a question bank; you’ll see questions of the same exact format but with different data/output
Looking ahead: next project due date is the “Preliminary data story” due Tuesday before Easter (March 31)
- Next week changed to be project work week.
- Next Tuesday will spend time producing a bunch of visualizations & tables (send 10 to me by Thursday morning).
- Next Thursday will be spent as a “storyboarding” session
Feedback from mid-semester survey
Two-thirds say pacing is about right (1/3 a little fast)
80% say difficulty is about right (1 a little too easy, 1 a little too hard)
55% say workload is about right, 45% say a little heavy
- Some qualitative comments mention workload feeling a litle heavy, labs being a little long
My goal for your time (6hrs outside class for 3 credit class):
- <1hr prep for Tuesdays
- 1hr on reading annotations
- <1hr preparing for quiz
- 1-3hrs finishing lab or project assignment
Will be mindful of lab lengths moving forward! Some weeks we’ll combine AE & Lab, so you’ll have more time for projects in class.
Suggested posting solutions to AEs - I can start doing that!
A lot of nuances come up in AEs/labs that aren’t covered in lecture notes - this is intentional :)
More live coding (by me) in class - I can do that!
Some people love the flipped design, other mixed
Data ethics seems to be an appreciated component of the course
What’s left
In the final 7 weeks (including this week):
- 13 class periods, 8 of which will be project-oriented
- 3 labs
- 2 AEs
- 3 quizzes
- 2 annotations
Application Exercise
- The remainder of class will be spent on AE-06.
- You can access it from GitHub.
- It is due at the end of class today.
- To turn it in, you should upload your .html file to Blackboard.
