Journal Submissions: 15-08-08

This is an update of last Friday's deadline for journal submissions.

There are some folks (1 from 01, 3 from 02) who, disappointingly, failed to submit their assignments given that:

i) I made it really easy for you to understand course content (imagine if you'd to make sense of the lecture notes by yourself),

ii) I'd repeated, reiterated, summarized each week's content with easily accessible examples so that you could follow even if you did not pen your thoughts down right after each lecture,

iii) your classmates put in time and effort to present their findings and research during seminars - mind you, each pair had to plough through some quite-tough readings so that you (if you choose not to) don't have to read them yourself.

If you've an LOA for the 15th, you're nonetheless expected to hand in your journals - hand it in together with your upcoming HTI project on the 25th. It will still be marked but it shall not affect your overall - whether for better or worse. Those without an LOA will be considered non-submissions, and you know what that means.

Non-submissions lose out in 2 ways - you lose the full marks for this assessment, and you can't assess what it takes to do up an outstanding piece because there's nothing for you and I to gauge. In any case, lest you feel condemned - don't be...just make sure you hand in the rest of your assignments. Don't let me down. But most importantly, don't let yourself down.

Have a good break guys!
