This exercise will be due in three weeks - so you have a bit more time than usual for the last one. Tomorrow in the lecture, I'll also hand out the evaluation sheets. We tried to be as practical and hands-on as possible to give you valuable insight into the real-world. As this hasn't been done before and also was a lot of work for us, we appreciate you coming, filling out the sheets and giving us feedback.
See you tomorrow! |
