# Site ## Pages - [Page not found](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-bada/404/): That page doesn't exist, or it has moved since you last looked - [Assessment](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-bada/assessments/): Every piece of graded work in the course, what it is worth, and when it is due. - [The Note](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-bada/assessments/assignment-1/): One note, on one real piece of work, that has to survive the room breaking it before it survives a marker reading it. - [The Critique Portfolio](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-bada/assessments/final-project/): Six notes across six domains, plus an honest account of where the method held and where it didn't. - [Peer Review Exchange](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-bada/assessments/peer-review-exchange/): A written, blind review of a classmate's proposal --- the one piece of graded work in this course where you don't get to know who you're grading, or who's grading you. - [Lectures](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-bada/lectures/): What is covered, week by week, and which topics each lecture draws on. - [Opening lecture](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-bada/lectures/week-01/): What a note is, why most feedback isn't one, and why this course tests the claim across six domains instead of one. - [Specificity and falsifiability](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-bada/lectures/week-03/): The two properties that make a note different from an opinion, and how to tell whether your own note has either of them. - [The work, not the person](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-bada/lectures/week-05/): Why a specific, falsifiable note can still be a cruel one, and how to keep a note aimed at the choice instead of the chooser. - [Anonymity and power](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-bada/lectures/week-07/): Why blind review exists, what it actually buys, and what it doesn't fix. - [Critiquing the brief](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-bada/lectures/week-09/): Turning the method one level up, from the work to the instructions that produced it --- and what changes when the author of the brief has power over you. - [What twelve weeks of notes add up to](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-bada/lectures/week-11/): A retrospective on the method, the domains, and where it held versus where it only looked like it held. - [People](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-bada/people/): Who teaches the course, and how to reach them. - [Idris Fenn](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-bada/people/idris-fenn/): Tutor. A decade of code and design review before he started teaching the same skill outside a pull request. - [Marisol Quaye](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-bada/people/marisol-quaye/): The founding convenor. Fifteen years writing restaurant and arts criticism before she started teaching the method instead of just practising it. - [Policies and support](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-bada/policies/): The course-wide rules for late work, attendance, academic integrity and what a note is not allowed to be. - [Orientation](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-bada/sessions/01-orientation/): The first crit --- what a note is, and why most of the feedback you've been given so far probably wasn't one. - [Revision](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-bada/sessions/02-revision/): Taking a vague note you were actually given and rewriting it until it passes the test from week 1. - [Visual art](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-bada/sessions/03-visual-art/): The first peer crit round, on a piece of visual work, testing the specificity-and-falsifiability theory from this week's lecture. - [Code](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-bada/sessions/04-code/): The same method, aimed at a pull request instead of a drawing --- proof that it wasn't an art-crit trick. - [Prose](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-bada/sessions/05-prose/): A line-edit exchange, and the week the method has to hold onto the work while the room gets personal about sentences. - [Portfolio check-in](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-bada/sessions/06-portfolio-check-in/): No new domain this week --- a working session before Assignment 1, and a chance to test the note you're about to submit on a live audience first. - [Peer review](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-bada/sessions/07-peer-review/): A mock blind review round, and what changes about a note when the person who wrote it doesn't know who's reading. - [Criticism as genre](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-bada/sessions/08-criticism-as-genre/): Writing a note for strangers instead of for the person who made the work --- the restaurant review, the film review, the published take. - [The brief itself](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-bada/sessions/09-the-brief-itself/): Turning the method on the thing giving the instructions --- this assignment, this course, the brief you were handed rather than the work you made from it. - [Receiving](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-bada/sessions/10-receiving/): The live clinic on taking a note without performing gratitude or mounting a defence --- the half of the skill nobody drills. - [Portfolio assembly](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-bada/sessions/11-portfolio-assembly/): Laying out ten weeks of notes side by side and asking whether the method actually held, or whether it just felt like it did each week in isolation. - [Final crit](https://comp4020-agentic-coding-studio.github.io/comp4020-ass2-bada/sessions/12-final-crit/): The showcase --- your finished portfolio, up in front of the room one last time, on the same terms the room has used since week 3.
