Week 2 Feedback

• 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; although it would have been better for completeness to go ahead and translate the rest of the sequence after the stop codon, in this case.
• 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 26/26 contributions between the Week 1 and Week 2 deadlines, keep up the good work!
• For each week's assignment, you will need to create links from your User page to that week's assignment and to your individual and shared journal entries, as well as a link back from your individual journal entry and to the category "Journal Entry".
  • You are missing all of these on your Emilysimso Week 2 page.
  • However, all of these links, except for the link to your User page actually exist on your template, "Esimso entries etc". So all you have to do to remedy this situation is:
    1. Add a link to your user page on your template.
    2. Invoke your template on your week 2 journal entry page by using the syntax {{Esimso entries etc}}.
  • You could even go ahead and create all of your future individual journal entry pages by invoking your template on them and never have to worry about losing points for this part of the assignment again.
• If you begin a line with a single space character, the text will appear in a fixed-width font, which is better for representing nucleic acid and protein sequences because they will then line up with each other better.
• With regards to your comments on your shared journal entry, the Nirenberg article is difficult because it is filled with experimental detail to which you may not have been previously exposed. However, I also think it's a good exercise to go back to the original source sometimes and read about discoveries from "the horse's mouth" so to speak.

Week 1 Feedback

• I have answered your question on my User talk page.
• Thank you for submitting your work on time.
• While the scores for the Week 1 assignment have not yet been posted, I want to give you feedback on the assignment.
• You entered something in the Summary field 100% of the time. Keep up the good work!
• The following items are either missing or need to be tweaked:
  1. You have a stray bullet point under the section describing your favorite aspect of computer science. This happened because you started your list with two asterisks without having a bullet point with just one.
  2. You uploaded your resume as a file, but I suggest you change the filename to something with your name in it. Using a generic filename like you did makes it difficult for other people to keep track of your file and could be mistaken for someone else's file.
  3. Please remove the "shared" category from your User page, because that page is not technically shared.
  4. You have neither created nor used the template. Please let us know if you need assistance with this because you will want to use it for the rest of the semester.
• You will have the opportunity to make up the points that you missed on this assignment by making corrections by the Week 2 journal deadline on midnight, September 15.
