Final (indicative) marks sent
Dear all,xx
You should all have received an email (at your KU email!) with your final marks. Please note that these are indicative marks, meaning that they are subject to ratification by exam boards. They could go up or down (although this is unlikely unless there is a mistake).
If you got more than 40%, congratulations – you made it!If you didn’t, then keep the summer free. If you are eligible for a summer retake then for Programming 1 this will take the form of a week-long bootcamp, at which your physical presence will be required! Further details will be sent to students to whom they apply. Please note I’m afraid I cannot advise on procedural issues regarding reassessment, e.g. whether you get a retake, whether you have to repeat the module, what your options are, etc. You should speak to the student office about such matters; however, it is likely they will simply tell you that you will receive a letter later on informing you of what happens next – so my advice would be to sit tight and wait.
Have a good break and I’ll see some of you in the summer, and most of you in the second year.
All the best,
Paul
Last Chance Saloon Arrangements
Dear all,
(If you have not booked for the Last Chance Saloon you can disregard this message)
The Last Chance Saloon will take place this coming Wednesday (5th April) in SB2022/3.
If you have previously booked with a correctly formatted email, then please take this message as confirmation of your booking. If you have not, you can register on the day, although this may eat into your test time.
PLEASE ARRIVE BEFORE 9:30AM READY FOR A 9:30AM START. NOT 9:45. NOT 10:30. DOORS WILL CLOSE AT 9:30AM. IF YOU ARE LATE YOU WILL *NOT* BE ADMITTED.
IF, HAVING SET OFF PROMPTLY ON THE DAY, CIRCUMSTANCES BEYOND YOUR CONTROL MEAN YOU WILL BE LATE (eg. transport problems, traffic, asteroid strikes, etc) PLEASE EMAIL ME BEFORE 9:30AM. (Everyone has smartphones these days so that should not be a problem!)
Although the event will run under exam conditions this is just so everyone has the proper environment in which to concentrate. Officially, it is not an exam or in-class test. It is considered part of your coursework portfolio and is an alternative to the summative activities we did during lectures that you might have missed.
You will have until a maximum of 1:30PM to answer a series of questions, derived from the Orange Events you missed. You will complete an Excel spreadsheet with your answers.
Good luck all, and I will see you Last Chancers on Wednesday!
All the best,
Paul
