Dear all,
I would like to make several announcements regarding our lab details.
1. About the deadline, sorry if the original syllabus was not that clear. We have a soft deadline for prelabs and labs, and they are due on the Saturday of the odd weeks (by odd I mean, week 1, 3, 5, 7 and 9). However, we will not collect your prelab and lab results so you will not need to submit those. But we do have a strongly enforced deadline for lab reports and they are due on the Saturday of the even weeks. The reason prelabs and labs are soft due is because you will formulate a lab report to demonstrate your results of them and write something else on lab report anyway so we will not double check and grade your work, if you are unsure about your results please check with TAs during lab hours. And the syntax of the lab report is on the lab website. Please refer to the section "lab write-up tips". Some students do not know we have a lab website and the url is located at the Home page of ECE 25 Canvas page.
2. About the lab materials, you can always find everything related to the labs on the lab websites, which means you could find the lab materials as well. We will briefly go over the material during the first 10 minutes of the lab sessions.
3. Some students might miss the labs of the first week, and you can always find the lab schedules as well through our lab website. And you can enter the lab zoom room using Zoom LTI PRO section on Canvas and I've created the rooms for all the lab hours.
4. Lastly, I just had a discussion with Professor Liu and he and I are on the same page now. Sorry about the confusions earlier because this quarter has been special and everything is online, so does the ECE 25 lab. We therefore changed some of the contents, teaching styles as well as the deadlines.
Please don't hesitate to contact me via email if you have any further questions that need to be answered!
Best,
Vince
