🕒 00:25–01:50
🏷️ Labels: Evaluation, Ranking, Mathematics, Numerical Methods, Error Handling
📂 Project: Teaching
⭐ Priority: MEDIUM

Session Goal:

The session aimed to address programming errors, prove mathematical concepts, and evaluate both student and algorithmic responses in mathematics and numerical methods.

Key Activities:

  1. Error Handling in Python: Addressed the ModuleNotFoundError for google.colab, providing alternatives for running code outside the Google Colaboratory environment.
  2. Mathematical Proofs: Provided a structured proof for the matrix geometric series sum for the inverse of (I - A), including common student errors and a grading rubric.
  3. Student Assessments: Ranked and evaluated student responses on mathematical concepts, focusing on clarity, rigor, and completeness.
  4. Algorithm Evaluation: Evaluated and ranked implementations of the power method, considering criteria like clarity, correctness, efficiency, and additional features such as Monte Carlo simulations.

Achievements:

  • Successfully provided solutions for handling Python module errors.
  • Completed a detailed proof for a linear algebra concept.
  • Conducted comprehensive evaluations and rankings of both student and algorithmic responses, providing feedback and suggestions for improvement.

Pending Tasks:

  • Further exploration of alternative environments for running code dependent on Google Colaboratory.
  • Additional feedback sessions for students based on the evaluations.
