Today's class will be a fun coding exercise!

Don't worry!!!! You are working with a file that is only 370,099 lines long. Really. Please watch the video below and get to work. You will need to download the file on your computer. It is important you save it on your desktop.

Target.png How am I being assessed today?[edit]

I will assess you formatively today, and make a professional judgement to what extent you understand our learning material. I will use observation, your written work, answers to questions, and contribution to class discussions as data to make my decisions. I normally record my observations in a "evidence of learning" spreadsheet, which I will happily share with you privately if you so wish. I usually need a day or two notice.

I will also ask you to complete a self-assessment which I will use to help me guage how well you think you understand our material in class.
