You implement sessions most commonly with cookies, but there are other ways (e.g., adding arguments to URLs)<br /> <br /> Remember there will be interviews after the final exam, basically next week<br /> - I&#039;ll email requests for interviews by 12/16, you may also volunteer<br /> - I WILL NOT post solutions immediately after, but they will get posted eventually<br /> - after the deferred exam time<br /> - please don&#039;t share the exam questions with people who may not have taken the final yet, and don&#039;t post info on the final to Teams please<br /> <br /> A4 grades may come out after the final, sorry, they are being graded now<br /> <br /> Don&#039;t listen to Brightspace&#039;s grade calculations, it will follow my own calculations (and will start with the outline&#039;s grading scheme)<br /> - weight of assignments, tutorials, lecture quizzes are all equal<br /> <br /> I have to use the same grading schemes for everyone<br /> - so I compute multiple ones for everyone, and use the one that gives the highest grade (on a per-individual basis)<br /> &lt;/pre&gt;</div>
