 == eChecks ==
-These are twelve weekly programming assignments that must be completed and submitted electronically. The eCheck exercises can be found at the end of each chapter in your textbook. For the first 7 weeks, you may choose one eCheck exercise to submit. For the remainder of the course, the eChecks to work on will be specified by the instructor.
+The eCheck exercises can be found at the end of each chapter in your textbook. It is recommended that you complete as many of these exercises as possible to enhance your understanding of the course material. You will receive instant feedback regarding whether your solution passed all tests. Some of the eChecks may be covered during the labs.
-Students receive instant feedback whether their solution passed all the tests. Each eCheck is graded on a pass-fail basis (so all or nothing), and must be completed within a week. The deadline for all eChecks is Monday at midnight.
+To learn how to submit eChecks electronically, do the initial self-paced labs of the textbook consulting the {{:guidedtour.pdf|Guided Tour}}. The URL of the eCheck server (which you need in order to submit electronically from home) can be found in the guided tour.
