Now that you've come down from your post-Easter chocolate-bunny-induced sugar high (and low)...
It's down to the end! Last week before Dead Week! Anything you particularly hope that we get to (or don't) get to?
Has the class met your expectations? Better? Worse?
Last lobbying for how the final exam should go: Take home due Friday of final's week at (say) 3:30 pm, or Friday of Final's week with a sit-down and don't-bring-your-notes at 2:50?
Let us hear you!
Well, I like the sit-down. Feels more like a test. And then I don't have to worry about getting it done along with everything else.
But, then, I don't really see the need to be out of here by Friday... I kinda like the place.

Once again it depends on the difficulty of the exam. I need multiplers. 1 take-home exam = X # of sit down exams. Solve for X, then ask me again.
Where X = 42.
:) Seriously though, think about the in-class exams. I like those. Not too bad. More than reasonable, in fact.
Now we want something harder? Something that we have to take time to do during finals week?
Folks, count on a sit-down final on Friday at 2:50. I'll get a review up next week. Mark Guzdial
Whichever test is easier I'm down, take-home or sit-down exam. Now that's a pragmatic approach.
