Catching up on missed lectures and assignments |
If you miss a lecture, you should catch up as soon as possible by reading the corresponding lecture notes
which are available in our lectures page. If you miss the deadline for a project or progress report and have a valid reason,
you should see the course supervisor. If you miss the test/exam for any valid reason, or you sit the test/exam but
believe that your performance was impaired for some reason, then you may be able to apply for an aegrotat,
compassionate or special pass consideration.
For more detailed information, refer to the University of Auckland's 2009 Calendar. |

In undergraduate study we usually use a bottom-up approach for teaching, i.e.
we explain algortihms, software etc. and then you deepen your understanding of them by solving simple problems in tutorials, assignments etc.
In COMPSCI 715 we use a top-down approach, i.e you studu advanced computer graphics technologies by solving a real-world
computer graphics problem. In order to do that you first have to analyse the problem, derive requirements, identify the
technologies you need, and then study them and implement them. Ideally you shoudl also tests your implementation in order to
check whether it fulfilles all the requirements.
