Muddiest Point for Week of 11/9/10

This isn't really a "muddiest point" post as much as it a comment on submitting the assignments and the digital dropbox and what not. When I submitted assignment 1 via the digital dropbox, I actually just added it without hitting "submit", so it just lingered there for weeks before I realized that the instructor(s) may have not received it. I straightened out the situation with the TA and submitted assignments 2 and 3 as well as the exam without a problem. Based upon the chart that Dr. He showed at the beginning of class last Tuesday, it seemed to indicate that despite the fact that my assignment 1 was in fact submitted and (when I pointed out that I'd submitted it weeks earlier) graded, I hadn't submitted the assignment. Thus, I e-mailed Dr. He and the TA yet again and hopefully this will be straightened out and my work for this assignment will count!

The bottom line to this, I guess, is that I much prefer submitting assignments via the Assignments tab or directly via e-mail as opposed to the Digital dropbox.

Reflections on Assignments 1 and 2

When I originally completed and attempted to submit assignments 1 and 2, I didn't realize that I had to hit "send" in the Digital Dropbox instead of just adding them. Thus, I was wondering why I hadn't received my grade and the TA informed that it wasn't visible for that reason. After resubmitting them properly, I finally received my grade for Assignment 1 and was glad that the error was overlooked and forgiven.
