Extra Credit Assignment

If you want to start preparing for the final, and want to share your tips and troubles with each other, and also want to get extra credit, you can participates in this 'Open Notes/Questions'.

The motivation is the following: if you did well in the midterms so far, then here is the chance that you can share your experience with others and share your understanding of this subject. If you did not do so well, and want to start preparing for the final and review the material, this is a good chance for you to document your progress and obstacles. And these efforts will earn you extra credits.

0. Policy

The extra credit worth 10 points total. With grading scheme 10 = excellent. 8 = good 6 = fair 4 = ok 0 = insufficient

As the policy for homework, you can discuss and collaborate with each other, but you need to write your own notes/ questions.

You should create a page in our wiki website: https://courses.wikinana.org/math104/s/start. For example, if your name is James Hill, you should type in https://courses.wikinana.org/math104/s/jameshill in the address bar and press enter. Then you can create your page from blank.

1. Write a review note summary for this course.

Your summary should be either organized by the days of the lectures, or by the chapter of the textbooks (they are roughly the same). a) the concepts that we covered b) main examples and non-examples c) the properties / useful results regarding these concepts.

2. Make a list of questions.

You should find (at least) 50 questions about textbooks or lectures, or about homework or midterms, anything that you don’t understand. Maybe a sentence in the textbook, or terminology or notation that you don’t know, or some exercise that you don’t know. And then you need to find answers to these questions, either by looking up the books or internet, or ask them on zoom chat channel, or piazza (anonymously if you wish), or over discord, or to the tutoring or GSI.

3. Answering Others questions(Optional)

If you see someone's question in their question list, that you happen to know the answer, or has some thoughts, you can use the comment sidebar to answer that. (see the example here) (You need to register an account in hypothes.is) Since I cannot count the answers that takes places offline, your answer is only for good karma, and not for credit.
