People,
Am receiving quite a few requests for project deadline extension.
The argument against an extension is that having extended the deadline once already, it is liable to become a slippery slope.
The arguments for it are persuasive as well. Given that this was exam week with different folks having different exams, people's availability was one issue. Also, in view of the peer review, am hoping people who had slacked off till now can make up by stepping up to the plate.
But primarily, from my POV, the project *is* the single most important applied learning tool and take-away from the entire course. Also, am aware that timelines have been rather constricted throughout the project. Hence, I am inclined to take a favorable view of such as extension.
Am calling for a 48 hour extension to Sunday noon as the new deadline. Am sorry if this upsets some folks (hopefully a small minority only).
To the AAs:
This pushes our grading schedule back by about 48 hours. We should be done by Tuesday evening latest.
Regards,
Sudhir
