Term papers: deadline for resubmission [updated]

Updated with confirmed deadline and set (the boldfaced part).

Term papers: the pass/fail part:

  • You should find (in Fronter) whether your term paper was approved
  • Those who did not get it approved, will have a resubmission deadline next Monday the 23rd at 1400. There are no changes to the problem set (i.e., you have the same problem set to solve; you can re-use (better) parts of your first attempt, but you should upload a complete paper with answers to everything). 
  • If you do not see a decision on your paper, please contact the administration.

The feedback part:

  • Attached to your papers, you should see shortform comments on what you did well and not so well.
  • If that is missing, you can send me (Nils) an e-mail. 
  • You should be cautious and not too over-optimistic when you interpret the comments:
    E.g. comments like "good, but you should" means that what you have done is correct, but you are missing this-and-that on a complete answer.
    And sometimes you would get a "great" or "splendid" even if more justification is recommended; if you mess up something, then a very few words on what you attempted at, could save you partial score. Some of you evidently need to do more work, as part [x] was messed up and part [y] was good - but you could get a superlative on part [y] even if we suspect that you were a bit lucky to hit spot-on. 

The review:

  • We intend to allocate an hour or so teaching to review the problem set. Not sure when.
