Logbook

 

Just to remind that the logbook is a very important component of the course and will be evaluated, together with the final exam they count 20% of the course grade.

 

You should record the logbook on a daily basis, with pages numbered and dated, about two main topics:

            -Discussions and findings about projects, collectively or individually

            -Answers to questions posted here in the class notes and other learning conclusions you found by doing activities related to this course.

The next logbook due date is Feb 23, 2006.

 

Logbook questions:

 

1-      What is a “Numeric Control” for? Where can I find it? Same for “Numeric Indicator”

2-      How can I get a numeric operation such as “Add”?

3-      How to remove all broken wires at once?
