Week 6 Workshop: Forgiveness rehearsal

A dry run of Take Control's two forgiveness trials — coyote time and jump buffer — reported the way the brief actually asks for them, in milliseconds.

31 March 2027

Preparation

Complete the week 6 lecture task before this session, including at least one coyote-time and one jump-buffer attempt.

Activity

  1. In the Gravity Lab, use “Copy configuration” to capture the exact settings you’re about to test, and paste that link into your notes before running anything — this is the reproducibility habit Take Control marks directly.
  2. Run your release-cut comparison and both forgiveness trials again under the captured configuration, this time timing your mistiming attempts with a visible clock or a counted beat so the millisecond figure you report isn’t a guess.
  3. Swap your configuration link with a partner. Each of you loads the other’s link and attempts to reproduce their forgiveness outcome. Report whether it matched.

Output

Your configuration link, the release-cut height comparison, both forgiveness trials with millisecond estimates and outcomes, and one sentence on whether your partner reproduced your result.

Criteria

Not marked. Your tutor will check that the configuration link actually reproduces the settings you reported using it for — this is exactly what Take Control, due Friday, is marked on.

The spec

What you bring to the session. Written so a reader can tell whether it has been met without asking you.
