Week 1 Feedback

  • I have answered your question on my User talk page.
  • The scores have not been posted yet, but I wanted to give you feedback on the Week 1 assignment.
  • Your individual assignment was completed on time, but your shared journal entry was late (submitted 01:15). In the future, make sure that you give yourself enough time to complete the assignment by the deadline.
  • I've noted the items that are missing from the assignment or tweaks that will make your page look better below.
    1. Check the formatting of your two e-mail addresses to make sure that that was what you intended. When you begin the line with a space character, the formatting will show up in a box with courier font. It would look better for both addresses to be the same format.
    2. For your snail mail address, please provide a complete address to your LMU mail box.
    3. It's exciting that you have a publication already. You should highlight this by giving it its own bullet point and linking to the article online (or at least the abstract on PubMed).
    4. Under your favorite aspects of computer science, "piques" is spelled incorrectly as "peaks".
    5. You have written something in the Summary field about 47% of the time. You should aim to write something there 100% of the time.
    6. As alluded to in your e-mail message, you have an issue with your template. You have created your template page OK, but you need to actually invoke the template on your User page, so that it actually gets use. To do so, put the syntax {{msaeedi23}} in the place you want it to appear. This will take care of the items of creating a new wiki page and linking to an internal site on the wiki which are not currently showing up on your User page. There is also an extraneous link to a different template with a different page name that you should remove.
    7. You created an external link to http://www.lmu.edu, but there is a stray "[" next to the link. Remember, you use double square brackets for an internal link and single square brackets for an external link. Similarly, on your wiki signature on my User talk page you have an extra set of double square brackets because when you use the wiki signature shortcut ~~~~, it actually does it for you.
    8. In terms of your headers, make sure that you have the same number of equals signs on either side of the header. There are a couple of places where you need to fix this. Wiki convention dictates that you start with 2 equals signs "==" because the page itself starts with one equals sign and everything else should be a subset of the page. You should therefore go down one more level to four, or "====".
    9. In terms of your numbered list, it might look better to use the syntax "#*" under TriBeta since there is only one item there.
    10. Please remove the extraneous "Loyola Marymount University" category from your page.
    11. You need to "comment out" something. When you are editing the page, surround some text with <!-- and --> so that it will only appear in the edit window and not on the page.
    12. The link from your User page to the shared journal entry is missing, but will be there once you invoke your template correctly.
  • You will have the opportunity to make up the points you lost by making the corrections noted below by the Week 2 assignment deadline of midnight, September 15.

I’ve answered your question on my talk page.

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.
  • 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 17/35 contributions between the Week 1 and Week 2 deadlines. We are aiming for 100%, so you have some work to do. Also, you completed the full assignment in only 3 edits to the wiki. This suggests that you might be doing the assignment outside of the wiki and then pasting it in. You should do the assignment "natively" in the wiki. If this is not the case, you will still want to consider saving your changes more frequently so that the granularity of the changes is smaller.
  • With regards to your comments on your shared journal entry, you were not the only one who had issues with the Kaji & Kaji article. A lot of the time, short scientific papers are more difficult to understand than longer ones!

Week 3 Early Feedback

My week 3 grading is not finished, but based on your week 2 feedback and what I have seen so far in Week 3, I thought I would chime in early so you can try to address these by the week 4 assignment.

  • Good job in supplying a summary with all of your wiki contributions in Week 3! This is a good habit to maintain throughout the semester. You also accomplished this with a few more edits, which is also something to reinforce.
  • A lab notebook aspect continues to be missing from your Week 3 submission. Your responses are almost entirely just the answers, with no notes on your thought process. As the computing assignments get harder, you will find this to be more and more crucial. Please give it a shot for Week 4.
  • You did fine with this previously but missed it in Week 3, so this is more of a reminder not to forget it in Week 4: Make sure to do the ~~~~ signature under your shared journal entry. This not only puts a stamp on your work but also provides convenient links to your user and user talk pages.

That’s not everything yet, but I figured these were good points to make so that you can get a jump on them for Week 4.
