Record of Participation for CSE341 Principles of Programming Languages (Spring 2014)

Why here?

• The black board feels just too formal
• It's easier to access and update information here (especially for me)
• Information here is version-controlled (you can see the history of how the contents have been changed over time)

What is the nature of the record here?

• First I (the instructor) will keep a record of offline participation ("offline" means during class) as defined below
• Later I may extend the scope of record keeping to discussion, project presentation, etc. (just an idea at this point)
• The record here is not meant to be very precise/quantitative; rather, its main purpose is to acknowledge and encourage participants

What is counted as offline participation

• Asking question(s) to the instructor
• Answering someone else's question
• Answering instructor's question may or may not be counted depending on the difficulty of the question and/or creativity of the answer
• Asking questions after/before the class is not counted (as it has little value to classmates)
• Participation during the first week is not counted (as system was not ready)
• Participation during make-up class is counted
• This list may be extended/updated
