== Week 4 Feedback ==

+

* Work was submitted on time, with a small fix applied the next day.

+

* Most good-habit items are mostly fulfilled, with a couple of notable gaps:

+

** All expected links and categories were noted, ''except'' for a link from your user page to the assignment. This has been pointed out a couple of times now, and really it is very easy to address—put it in your template! It is ultimately a small bit of effort, with the payoff that someone reading your pages will then have one-click access to many related pages.

+

** Electronic notebook content was seen.

+

** The summaries provided with your edits for this assignment swing too much toward the generic—e.g., “first edit” is sort of self-evident, so ''what'' was edited? This is like providing a commit message for code that says “modified code.” Remember that we are not forming this habit without purpose: in the end, you do want to get an idea, when looking at your edit history, about what contributions you have specifically been making to the wiki. Saying that something is an “edit” alone does not build that story.

+

** Also, 4 edits is strikingly low for an assignment of this magnitude. Ideally you should break your work up into finer milestones.

+

* For the exercises, the following issues were seen; all others were correct:

+

** The mRNA strand should not be complemented—you were already looking at the gene in the 5' to 3' direction, so that portion of the DNA is already mRNA-like.

+

** Your translation approach is generally the right idea, but skimped a bit on how to form the full command. Your submission starts at the deletion and it took additional steps for me to integrate this with the earlier command sequences when checking your work. Ideally answers are self-contained and easily verifiable.

+

* Shared responses were provided and they came in on time.

		+	== Week 6 Feedback ==
		+
		+	I’ve chosen to issue partial feedback sooner than complete feedback later, in case it will help you address issues with [[Week 8]].
		+
		+	=== Best Practices ===
		+
		+	* Individual and shared work were both submitted on time, although your link template was added to the individual page a few days later.
		+	* Almost all requisite links to and from the user page as well as page categories are present, except:
		+	** Your link template is still missing links to the actual assignment writeups. This is useful for grading because it allows us to toggle quickly to the assignment in case we need to look something up. Note from prior feedback that this missing link has been pointed out to you multiple times now.
		+	* Electronic notebook was maintained.
		+	* Work was submitted in only two submissions (not counting the very last one which only added the link template), and the summaries were not very descriptive.
		+
		+	=== Database Exercises ===
		+
		+	Work in progress.
