Course evaluations - Today!

3/22/17 6:49 AM

We will be taking a few minutes in class today to do the course evaluations.

If you are able, please bring a laptop, tablet, or other web-enabled device in order to fill them out.

As usual, you can find the evaluations website at:

http://evaluate.uwaterloo.ca

Please do your best to fill them out carefully and thoroughly, as they are used by instructors to improve our teaching and the course itself, and by the department to evaluate instructors' teaching performance. Your honest feedback is greatly appreciated!

Also, for those who might have enrolled in one section but attended another, note that your evaluation should be for the instructor whose section you are officially enrolled in.

A3Q4 clarification

3/15/17 2:32 PM

I have been asked a lot about what Q4 means. Just to clarify, you need to form a complex signal, such that the Fourier transform of the two real signals can be obtained somehow from the Fourier transform of the complex signal. quote @223
