Announcements

  • 1/19: Welcome to EEE 51!
  • 1/20: This term we will be using Piazza for class discussion. The system is highly catered to getting you help fast and efficiently from classmates, in addition to the instructors. Rather than emailing questions to the teaching staff, you are encouraged to post your questions on Piazza. Find our class page here.
  • 1/29: HW #1 is here. Due Friday, 2/5, 5pm. (solution)
  • 2/5: HW #2 is here. Due Friday, 2/12, 5pm. (solution)
  • 2/8: THQ: No class on Tuesday, 2/9. My flight got delayed and I will not be able to make it to class (LPA)
  • 2/12: HW #3 is here. Due Friday, 2/19, 5pm. (solution)
  • 2/19: HW #4 is here. Due Friday, 3/4, 5pm. (solution)
  • 2/26: THU: We will have a make-up class on March 3, Thursday, 5:30-7pm, at Rm 120.
  • 3/11: HW #5 is here. Due Friday, 3/18, 5pm. partial solution
  • 3/15: As agreed upon by all EEE 51 instructors, those who will register online by Friday this week AND join the UP EEEI CentEEEnnial Run on April 3, 2016 will be given a HW incentive. The lowest non-zero HW score will be replaced with a perfect score. More information on the UP EEEI Centennial activities here.
  • 4/1: HW #6 is here. Due Friday, 4/8, 5pm. (solution)
  • 4/8: HW #7 is here. Due Friday, 4/22, 5pm. (solution)
  • 4/22: HW #8 is here. Due Friday, 4/29, 5pm. (solution)
  • 5/2: HW #9 is here. Due Friday, 5/13, 5pm. (part2)
  • 5/17: HW #10 is here. Due Tuesday, 5/24, 5pm. (solution)
  • 5/27: You may now get your midterm exam papers from the admin office. Any clarifications on your exam scores should be made in writing and attached to the specific page on the exam. Submit all exam papers for rechecking at the admin office by 6/3, 12nn. The papers for rechecking should be placed in my (Tess) pigeonhole and I will take care of distributing to the other instructors.
    • Midterm results: THQ   THU   WFR
    • Midterms column is calculated as (average(P1score/20,P2score/20,P3score/19)*100), rounded up to the nearest integer
  • 5/27: You may view your HW scores here.
  • 6/3: Final exam results for graduating students here.
  • 6/6: Exam results: THQ  THU  WFR
  • 6/6: You may start claiming your final exam papers from the admin office tomorrow, 6/7. Same procedure for rechecking of papers as in the midterms apply. Submit all FINAL exam papers for rechecking at the admin office by 6/8, 12nn.
  • 6/6: As we are still waiting for all HW scores to be in, we won’t be able to finalize the grading scale yet. If your Midterms+Finals score is above 100, then you are sure to PASS the course.
  • 6/8: EEE 51 Tentative grades here. Grading scale is as follows:
           78-100 (1.00)
           70-77 (1.50)
           63-69 (2.00)
           55-62 (2.50)
           47-54 (3.00)
           46 and below (5.00)
  • Raw Grade is computed as 30% HW, 30% Midterms, and 40% Finals. If your Midterms+Finals score is above 100 but the Raw Grade is below 47, you get a grade of 3.00.
  • 6/9: Please check here for the tentative grades after Midterms and Finals rechecking. We will be uploading grades in CRS later today.
  • 6/9: Final Grades: THQ   THU   WFR
