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 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.

I answered your question on my 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.
