Assessment

Every piece of graded work in the course, what it is worth, and when it is due.

Four pieces. Assignment 1 produces a curve. Assignment 2 picks one point on that curve and measures what else moved. The final is that one number, defended. The tutorial quizzes run alongside, one number a week, and are the record of how you got there.

Nothing here is marked on whether your change made the game better. All of it is marked on whether someone else could check.
