General Information:
Are you looking for more programming practice and want to receive
extra credit for doing it?
CS302 is offering up to 5% extra credit
(half a letter grade) to encourage you to practice Java programming.
We're using Turing's Craft's CodeLab, a web-based interactive programming
exercise system. There's a nominal fee to access this system, but we've
found that students desiring the extra practice have valued having this
option. Add to that, we'll give you extra credit!
Those exercises that you successfully complete by the specified due dates
will count toward your extra credit score, and you only need to correctly
answer 90% of the questions to earn the full 5%. If you don't complete 90%,
you'll still receive partial extra credit for any exercises that you do
complete in time.
Extra Credit earned for CodeLab will be computed at the end of the semester after all CodeLab exercises have been completed.
