+====== Tentative Grading if Online Exam is offered ======
+**Monday March 23, 2020**.  On March 16th, in accordance with Senate rules, we changed the kind and weights to #2 below (no final exam). <hi> This remains in place.</hi>
+However, as an alternative, for those students who demand to be graded according to the original grading scheme, we are also offering an online exam (see #3 below) at the scheduled exam time for this course.
+In both cases, you are **required** to submit the Project and Lab5/undo-redo by the stated deadlines.

+  * Last date to submit term work Project (as a team) and Lab5/Chess-undo-redo (**individually**): Monday April 06.
+  * The official deadline to submit the Project and Lab5 is April 06, but you may submit until 2.00pm Monday April 13th, without penalty.
+**Specification for the online exam option (#3)**: Like any final exam -- this will be on all the course materials, i.e. all lectures including video lectures & slides to the end of the course, lab work required readings etc. It will be a multiple choice online exam, "open-book" (you may consult your course notes, labs, readings, tools etc.) but it must be solely your own individual work (no outside help) in accordance with academic integrity rules. If you login and submit, this is a demand and commitment on your part to be graded using this option. The instructors reserve the right to require that you undertake an additional oral Zoom exam -- in which you will be required to explain your answers in order to obtain a passing grade, solely at the discretion of the instructors. **Date of online exam**: Tuesday April 14, 2-5pm.

 Please ensure that you are familiar with <hi>academic integrity rules</hi>. In the **Project**, you may only consult with your team member (if there is one) and **Lab5/undo-redo** must be done on your own. Think of this as supervised exam rules.
-The University has stated that as an alternative, students will be able to choose to write a deferred supervised written exam. **In such a case, you may choose to be graded according to the original grading scheme.** This is only so, **provided you submit this Project and the Lab5 Assignment (chess/undo-redo) by the due dates for this course**. In such a case, the Lab5 Assignment will be used for your grade in place of the cancelled Labtest2. update 18 March 2020 from the Senate: "At this time, it is unknown when it will be possible to hold in-person exams".
