		+	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.
		+	* Requisite links to and from the user page as well as page categories are all present.
		+	* Electronic notebook was maintained.
		+	* Work was submitted in appropriate frequencies with corresponding summaries.
		+	* ''This amounts to a “best practices” perfect score. Good work, keep it up!''
		+
		+	=== Database Exercises ===
		+
		+	Work in progress.

		+
		+	* Individual work was submitted on time.
		+	* All good-habit items are fulfilled:
		+	** All expected links and categories were noted.
		+	** Electronic notebook content was seen.
		+	** Summaries were consistently provided for all except 2 over a good number of edits.
		+	* For the exercises, the following issues were seen; all others were correct:
		+	** You were off by one nucleotide on the transcription start site.
		+	** The incorrect stop codon was chosen.
		+	** The mRNA sequence was not quite reached: first, the tags from the previous exercise should not have been included, and second, the complement is not appropriate in this case because we are already looking at the mRNA-like strand.
		+	** The right general idea was written out for producing the amino acid sequence, but accomplishing this idea fell further short. Indeed the sequence from start codon to stop codon should be extracted first, then spaced out into triples, then finally converted via the ''genetic-code.sed'' file. In addition, the correct stop codon would be needed in order to get the complete and correct amino acid sequence.
		+	* Shared responses were provided although arrived 22 seconds late.

		+
		+	* Work was submitted past the deadline. Yes, it was only late by 10 seconds, with the late submissions being very minor, but as the tasks get more advanced see what you can do about giving yourself more wiggle room.
		+	* Aside from punctuality most other good-habit items are fulfilled:
		+	** All expected links and categories were noted.
		+	** You were able to phase your work well, and remembered to supply a change summary to all but 2 of them.
		+	** Your electronic lab notebook contained some protocols and procedures, but did not say anything about your thought process in solving the week’s exercises. Remember that this is the second major reason for maintaining lab notebook-style commentary.
		+	* What follows is my feedback for the answers you provided:
		+	** Complement was exactly right.
		+	** Your 6 reading frames produced the right result, but not in the best way. Specifically, to “clean up” the remaining base pairs, you “pre-cut” them from the end. This does produce the correct result but requires foreknowledge of exactly how long the nucleotide sequence is. What if you were given a gene consisting of thousands of bases? There is a way to process the sequences without having to know how many bases to “chop” at the end.
		+	** Reading frame –2 contains a typo: it is actually a copy of reading frame –3. The answer is correct, meaning that you probably just transcribed the wrong command here. Note how a lab notebook describing your thought process or intent would have strengthened the case that this was solely a transcription mistake instead of an incorrect answer.
		+	** All of your ''xmlpipedb-match'' answers were correct except for the last one. The answer is a good start, but does not express the precise reason for the difference in numbers. Yes, it does have to do with how <code>wc</code> does its counting. But the answer did not complete that thought.
		+	* I definitely agree with you about how learning among diverse individuals enriches that environment; it is certainly an on-going goal for many universities. As for coding, there is definitely a lot of responsibility to go with it, and it does take a lot of skill and practice to get there. Think of this class as an opportunity for you to partake in a little bit of that “running of things” ''':)''' The more you practice, the more you’ll realize at the end of the semester how far you’ve come.

		+
		+	* Although, the [[Week 2]] scores have not yet been posted, I want to give you feedback on the assignment that you can incorporate to your your [[Week 3]] submission.
		+	* First, thank you for submitting your assignment on time.
		+	* Your translations are correct.
		+	* You did not include anything by the way of an electronic notebook for this assignment. Although this assignment was pretty straightforward, you still need to document the process of what you did to arrive at the answers, not just supply the answers. Please be sure to do this for your Week 3 submission.
		+	* You wrote something in the Summary field for 40/42 contributions between the Week 1 and Week 2 deadlines, keep up the good work!
		+	* You did include all of the links requested by the assignment. However, you should do this by invoking your template, not by adding them separately to your page. In particular, your should invoke your template on your individual journal page. You should add a link to your user page on your template, as well. This way, you will never forget to add it as long as you invoke your template on your journal entry page.
		+	* With regards to your comments on your shared journal entry, I can see how Figure 7 would be confusing. If you have a polymer with a random distribution of A and C in it, you would expect AAA, CCC, AAC, ACC, ACA, CAC, CCA to appear at different theoretical frequencies. They then matched this against the frequency at which the amino acids encoded by those triplets appeared in the experiment.

	+	== Week 1 Feedback ==

	+	* I answered your question on my [[User_talk:Dondi \| User talk page]].
	+	* The scores have not been posted yet, but I wanted to give you feedback on your [[Week 1]] Assignment.
	+	* You did everything on time, with a few hours to spare. Good job, keep it up—but watch out for more challenging assignments, where a few hours might be cutting it close.
	+	* Your assignment is complete except for a couple of details: you did not explicitly state your career interests and goals, and you only used 2 heading levels and not 3. I don’t think it’s a question of whether you can do these; but overall it is a good habit to treat homework instructions like lab protocols or specifications to fulfill with high precision.
	+	* I’m glad that you got really comfortable with uploading and linking to images—very useful to be in the comfort zone with that.
	+	* You saved quite frequently—77 times by my unscientific count—though only remembered to supply a summary of your changes in 35 of those 77 submissions. Plus, some summaries where just automated inclusions of the section title being edited. Go for a happy medium; keep on saving often, but remain aware of what changes you are making so that you can supply a descriptive summary of what that save represents.
	+	* Your shared answers and your question to me are very individualized and show some honest introspection—this is great, keep on doing that! It helps us get to know you better, and perhaps you get to see your own self in a different light as well.
