(The registration form will be left open until the regular final exam begins, to accommodate people with last-minute emergencies.)

Teaching evaluations
- ICES Online forms are available through Thursday, December 7 (reading day). Your feedback is extremely important, especially critical narrative feedback. Please submit forms both for Jeff and the course as a whole, and for the TA who leads your registered lab section. (Please also submit evaluations for all your other courses!)
- ICES only supports evaluation of teaching assistants who are official instructors of a discuss or lab section, and only by students registered for that section, and it does not suport evaluation of undergraduate course assistants at all. Separate surveys are available to collect informal feedback for/about any member of the course staff. These surveys are also available through Thursday, December 7 (reading day).
-
Surveys: We're also asking for feedback on specific aspects of the course. For each of these surveys, the entire class will receive a small amount of extra credit if at least half of the students submits a response before the final exam.
- PrairieLearn survey: This survey is being administered by Brad Solomon and Yael Gertner, as part of a reserch project attached to the CS 374 PraiieLearn development effort. Jeff will only see the results of this survey only after grades are submitted, and only in anonymized aggregate form.
- Extension survey (available soon): We are separately asking for feedback on this semester's new extension protocol.
- Hiring: The PrairieLearn development team for CS 374 is hiring new developers for next semester. If you are interested, please fill out the application form!

Si maintenant vous me donnez une équation que vous aurez choisie à votre gré, et que vous desirez connaître si elle est ou non soluble par radicaux, je n’aurai rien à y faire que de vous indiquer le moyen de répondre à votre question, sans vouloir charger ni moi ni personne de la faire. En un mot les calculs sont impracticables.
