Rather than getting 3 intermediate credits, it should be worth 4 advanced credits.'' <LI> ``The assignments tend to take way too long and are very hard.'' <LI> ``It shouldn't take 8-10 hours to write up a program.'' <LI> ``This class should be 5 cr. It's ridiculous.''</UL><P>Do I find these comments to be correct? I agree that the courseshould be worth more credits, but I can't change that. As yourteacher, I have a duty of giving you all of the material needed to besucessful in courses that have CS302 as a prereq -- a whole lot ofmaterial and work is involved. The comment, ``It shouldn't take 8-10hours...'' is off base. The students in my class only had eightprograms to hand in during the previous semester, but some studentsthought that assignments should be something that are done the nightbefore due! <P>Assignments take a continous effort from the day assigned. Somestruggling is good for the mind, but please ask me questions and Iwill help you! This course is easy for some, and hard for others, butin all, the course should not be a semester long <EM>hell</EM>. <P>How much work do I think you should expect? The usual guideline incollege is to expect to spend 3 hours outside of class for every hourspent in class. But keep in mind that 3 hours is an average acrossthe entire college spectrum from bowling to quantum physics.Where does CS302 fall in that spectrum? Expect 3-5 hours of readingeach week. Expect 9-10 hours of homework each week in which we don'thave exams. So that could be 12-15 hours outside of class each week,i.e. 4-5 hours for every hour in class. <P>Some students will be able to spend less time, and other may spend<EM>much</EM> more. Please be prepared and if you find yourselfsnowballing homework and studying, <EM>see me for immediate help outside ofclass!</EM> <P><HR>Created By: Jim Basney<br>Last modified: Mon Sep 2 15:23:15 CDT 1996by Greg Sharp<ADDRESS></ADDRESS></BODY></HTML>⌨️ 快捷键说明
