Final Presentation Order

I have just done a lucky random draw to get the following presentation order.

I have listed only the group number. For groups of a single student, I have put a star next to the group number. The presentation should last for 10-14 mins. For groups of 2 students, the final presentation should take 18-22 mins.

17 Nov (Thursday): 6* --> 3* --> 11 --> 7
22 Nov (Tuesday): 14* --> 8 --> 5 --> 1
24 Nov (Thursday): 2 --> 4 --> 13
29 Nov (Tuesday): 9 --> 10 --> 12

You are expected to show up for all presentations. You will evaluate each others and these peer evaluations will contribute to a part of your final grade. A rubric will be given to you all by Nov 11 (Friday) so you know what we are looking for and how you should prepare your presentation.

Planning for the rest of the semester

Below is the arrangement for the rest of the lectures.

NOTE:

• All HW/Project due dates are highlighted in red.
• Meeting with individual group: Each group please login to CANVAS and take TWO 10 min slots with one on either OCT 18/20 and another on either NOV 01/03.
• LAB: I will be in the MATH UG lab (where you have your tutorials) and will help you on the code. You can also work on your own HW/project over there. 
• Final Presentation: Each group will present their research finding. For group consists of only 1 student, the time limit is 10-14 mins. For groups with 2 students, the time limit is 18-22 mins.
