Locations

Work in the computer lab on Level 2 (232A).

Expected hours in the Lab

The lab times are 10:00-17:00 on Mon, Tue, Thur and Fri. You not restricted to these times, but you should be able to complete your computational experiment over two weeks and write up in the time available. It is up to you to manage your time: do not do too much or too little. Ask a demonstrator or staff if you are at all unsure.

No student is expected to spend more time on an individual computational experiment than they would on an experiment in any 3rd year lab based course.

Address your questions to the demonstrators during the lab hours they are available. Some will be contactable via email. If you are struggling with the suggested times allocated for each part of the experiment, seek help from a demonstrator.

You should aim to have completed all the simulations and most of the writing by Friday.

Demonstrator and Staff help and feedback times

Demonstrators are available Mon, Tue, Thur and Fri in the upstairs / Level 2 computer room, usually from 10:00 to 11:00 and 14:00 to 15:00.

If you have a question, talk with a demonstrator first. Demonstrators are not just there to help with specific technical questions, they can also offer feedback on completed work before it is marked.

Report submission

Submit the URL for your Wiki report for each experiment via BlackBoard by the deadline. These deadlines are on the Wed of the week following each experiment.

You should expect to get a grade on blackboard within 10 working days. If you have heard nothing and have not received a grade in blackboard, please contact the staff responsible for the experiment to make sure your work has not gone missing.

Please note the College policy: work submitted late will receive zero marks. Any sections completed by the hand-in date will be assessed for full marks, additional material added after this will not be marked. If you are having problems, are ill or have extenuating circumstances please contact the demonstrator responsible for the experiment as early as possible, extensions may be granted and will be determined on a case-by-case basis.
