CSC151.02 2013F, Class 56: Discussion of Exam 3 and Review for Final

Overview

Preliminaries

Snacks!
Exams returned.
Most other grades distributed via email. A few more quiz grades still to come, as well as calculated grades. (Hopefully Saturday. But I need sleep right now, and my other class needs grading.)
Final Tuesday at 2 or Thursday at 9.
Any events to announce?
- Nerf at Noyce at 8:30 tonight

40 people is a lot. Should I say "no" the next time students plead to get in to 151 and it brings the class over 36?
- Gives a lot of variety
- Maybe stop at 32
- Keep the review sessions or other opportunities for smaller group things
Why didn't anyone drop? ("Melt" is typical in 151.)
What's something I did really well?
- Examples - Including the examples at the front
- Drawing messy pictures.
What's something I really need to improve (other than getting you graded work more quickly)?
- Allow online grade access
- Readings are DENSE
  - Find better ways to explain complex topics like l-s and r-s
- More code to look at, such as solutions to labs
- Sometimes need to talk more - 5-10 minute mini lectures
- Sometimes need to talk less
What else should I know?
- Maybe more clicker questions
- Maybe split the room
- Maybe click on "this is how I want to spend today's class"
- Clickers were more effective than "close your eyes and wave your hands"
