Week 11 Lab: The reckoning

Week 11 lab, put a real number on the hours, and decide honestly what they bought

3 May 2027

The lab where the arithmetic finally happens.

Before the lab

Bring your reconstructed hours for the semester, however alarming the total.

In the lab

We do the accounting out loud. Each of you states the number, then we sort the hours into the ones that will pay themselves back, the ones that bought only the pleasure of the doing, and the ones that were plain procrastination. This is not a confession booth. The aim is an honest ledger you can defend in the essay.

Afterwards

You leave with a number you believe and an outline for the Time Audit, guilt optional.

The spec

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