I plan to give five pieces of assessed coursework (in addition to the project). These will be equally weighted, so each counts for 2% of the module mark. The dates will be as follows. Work must be handed in by 4.00 pm on the dates given below, in the homework letterbox at the Mathematics and Statistics General Office, 3rd floor, Herschel Building.
Assignment Hand out Hand in --------------------------------------------------------- 1 Week 1 Week 3 (Monday February 9) 2 Week 3 Week 5 (Monday February 23) 3 Week 5 Week 7 (Monday March 9) 4 Week 7 Week 9 (Monday April 20) 5 Week 9 Week 11 (TUESDAY May 5)The Project is to be submitted by 4.00pm on Thursday 30th April (Week 10). It must be submitted to the General Office and you will need to sign a sheet when you submit it. I will give you the project by the end of Week 3. Please note that in Weeks 9, 10, 11 you will have three pieces of work to submit, two assignments and the project, so try to make a start on the project well before the hand-in date. You will have 7 weeks of term and 4 weeks of the Easter vacation to work on the project. That should be more than enough. The project instruction may be obtained here.
