Assessment Corrections

The VBA results have been released and all groups will have one chance to get some quick feedback on what they submitted. If this doesn’t or hasn’t worked for you, please feel free to send an email.

I have set a target of Week 9 for your Written Assessment results.

Week 8

We continued with Chapter 2, describing the implementation of the Gauss-Seidel method. We have stopped (geddit) short of giving the stopping rule, ye will see this on Tuesday.

We did Lab 6 on boundary value problems, and it is relevant for VBA Assessment 2 in Week 11.

Week 9

We will finish our work on Laplace’s Equation and then start looking at the Heat Equation.

We will look at Lab 7, based on Laplace’s Equation

Because every lab counts, the Bank Holiday labs of DME2A are going to be rescheduled to Tuesday: on Tuesday March 19 we will have the following:

  • DME2A, 14:40-16:20, DME2E 16:20-18:00, A285

Here on is provisional on when I go on paternity leave

Week 10

We will finish our work on the Heat Equation and have tutorial time on Wednesday.

For Lab 8, the theory is examinable in the final written assessment but the VBA not examinable outside of Autumn repeat exam.

If I go on paternity leave a number of videos will have been produced:

  • a video covering the last lecture of new material,
  • an intro to Lab 8,
  • and outro to Lab 8
  • two hours and 40 minutes of worked examples

You will be instructed to replace your four hours of lab and lecture time with engagement with these materials.

Week 11

I will almost certainly be on paternity leave. Your VBA 2 assessment will take place and it will be invigilated.

You will be instructed to replace your two hours of lecture time with engagement with the two hours and 40 minutes of worked examples.

Week 12

I will probably be on paternity leave. Your Written Assessment 2 will take place in the Melbourne.

You will be instructed to replace your Tuesday lecture time with engagement with the two hours and 40 minutes of worked examples.

If I am back from paternity leave your Tuesday lecture will be a tutorial.
