Worksheets Guide
Worksheets
- This Module is assessed by means of a Portfolio of Works.
- The worksheets are graded to a total of 100, if you also complete the graded feedback session.
- Whatever you get out of 100 is then that amount of 20% of the total module grade.
- So, if you got 67, the amount the worksheets would contribute towards your final module grade would be .67*20 = 13.4%
- You must complete four of the worksheets provided.
Which worksheets to do
- For all students the Terminal worksheet is compulsory.
- If you do the bug fixing portfolio, the Mozilla worksheet is strongly recommended, as it contains everything you need to start the bug fixing process.
- If you are less technically capable, the worksheets on Games and Licences are more research and thought based than technical knowledge based. You cannot avoid all the technical worksheets however.
- If you are particularly interesting in optimisation, then the gdb and valgrind worksheet is recommended.
- The Git Worksheet goes into more detail on Git than you have covered in previous modules.
- The Emacs worksheet shows you how to use emacs to create documents of the type you will have already seen used on this module.
