Hi,

This is a good Idea. Also, some sample finals or previous finals, too.

Thanks,

Prithvi Srihari.

Hi,

   I guess homeworks would actually help in giving more thoughts to
certain important concept in some abstract papers.Probably we can have
one or two homeworks  but with deadlines that would not make it
impossible for doing our research paper well.Professor,probably you can
choose or get some opinion from class to learn which papers seem to be a
bit difficult for most students in class and then give us some questions
to think . I guess that would help us in our final exams.Thats just my
opinion!

Subha

&gt; I would do this way. Before paper due which is the last day of class on
2nd <br>
&gt; May, I mostly prefer concentrate on the term paper. I have a feeling that <br>
&gt; writing a paper may not too hard but a good paper do. <br>
&gt; About homework or preparation for final such as exam quide or example <br>
&gt; quesitons, I would prefer to do after paper due if it suppose to have one <br>

which <br>
&gt; is 13th May. <br>

&gt; It seems that a vast majority of the class would prefer not to have <br>
&gt; further <br>
&gt; homeworks. But for people like me (I missed two homeworks) who missed <br>
&gt; homeworks assuming that we'll get HWs often (considering that we were <br>
&gt; given <br>
&gt; HWs for 3 consecutive weeks) and hence underestimated the importance of a <br>
&gt; single HW, getting another chance would be GREAT :) <br>
&gt; <br>
&gt; I have a request to Professor that we be given new HWs, but only taking <br>
&gt; the <br>
&gt; best 3 HW grades into account. <br>
&gt; IMHO, that would be satisfying all. <br>
&gt; <br>
&gt; Thanks, <br>
