    Thanks to Charlotte for pointing out that there were more WeBWorK sets with a due date of October 23 yesterday during class. This actually wasn’t an error, I just forgot that there was WeBWorK assigned as part of Project 1. I’ve updated the checklist above. You can see the details at the bottom of the Project 1 instructions post, but the upshot is that you will choose only ONE of the three applications WeBWorK sets to complete (probably the one that aligns with the topic you chose for Project 1, but choose whichever set you want). Skip the other two applications sets.

    WeBWorK will not understand that you are allowed to skip those two other sets, so it will assign you a grade of zero for them. Don’t worry about this. When I do your final grade calculations at the end of the semester, those two sets will not count.

    Let me know if you have any questions.
