Exercise sheets and group exercises

The first "proper" set of exercises is now out (problem sheet 2), so it's time to repeat the procedure (same for all problem sets from now on):

• You have time to solve the problems, and email your solution to Param by next Wednesday (31/08).
• On Thursday (01/09), you will then be put into small groups (typically 4 people), where everyone is assigned 2 solutions of fellow students in the same group to correct (you will receive a corresponding email notification).
• For these corrections you have time until the group session on Monday (05/09); typically there will be at least one more student with exactly the same solutions assigned, so you may want to get in touch and discuss, e.g. how to "grade" (each problem comes with a total number of points, just for orientation).
• During the first part of the group exercises, you sit together in these small groups and discuss the individual solutions.
• During the second part of the group exercise, a few selected problems will be presented by students and actively discussed together (by everyone). In this way, you will bring the discussions/results from the small groups together.
• On Tuesday (06/09) you will find solutions to all problems on the course webpage.

Last but not least: Remember to actively use the online forum for discussions and any type of questions!
