Checkpoints are tasks to be completed in each practical session.
At the end of the module you will receive a grade for checkpoints
based on the proportion of checkpoints completed (so you don't have to
do them all to get a grade, but clearly the more you do, the better the
grade you get).
Note that it is a module requirement to do at least three checkpoints,
that is, to achieve at least a grade 4C. See the table below for the
correspondence between grades and checkpoints.
If you miss a checkpoint, do the work in your own time and get the
checkpoint marked at the next opportunity. Demonstrators will mark
a maximum of three checkpoints per student per session. Please don't
turn up at the last session with all nine checkpoints to be shown.
Checkpoints are worth 40% of your final mark.
You can check your attendance record and your
checkpoint record via the register program (available on Groups on Wide)
at any time. Use the View menu.
The very last chance to catch up on checkpoints will be the last
workshops;
however, you are advised to try to stay as up to
date during the semester as possible, otherwise you may find it
impossible to catch up.
