Some potentially useful information on the upcoming midterm is posted in Homework+. By the way, I know that I promised to give you report on your progress—I am still working on distilling database from the forum site, and I will be able to do so in a few days. Sorry about not being able to get the reports out yet.—12:50PM, Feb 05, 2015
From reading quiz 5, the deadline will be strictly applied in the following sense. If no answers are given in the answering box in the upper right corner by the beginning of the class time, then you will not get credit for the reading quiz. If you provide a long answer on the forum after the beginning of the class time, then you will not get any credit from them, even if I mark them as the best answer. These mechanisms will be applied by checking time stamps of the database of my web site. However, I am not necessarily discouraging you from having a late discussion on line or submitting a late make-up report, especially if you had a good reason for not doing the quiz before class begins. On the contrary, I encourage it, in general. It is just that how much you might get credit for late work, if at all, depends very strongly on the quality of your work. In any case, the true benefit of doing work, even if it is a little late, should be viewed as your true knowledge gained, which should help you in the exams.—10:14AM, Jan 22, 2015
