Week 14 Feedback

• I have some observations to make about your data as you prepare for the final paper/presentation (I'm copying both partners on this feedback).
  • Which genes in the model have the closest fit between the model data and actual data? Why do you think that is? How does this help you to interpret the microarray data?
    • I agree that CYC8 has good fit, but I would dispute that the fit to the SWI5 data is better than some other genes. The model at t15 is only hitting the topmost replicate of the data for t15. For other genes, it seems to pass through the average much better for all of the timepoints. CYC8 probably does have the smallest difference between replicate datapoints. It is also not changing it's expression. The average of all the timepoints goes through 0 log fold change. There does seem to be a relationship between goodness of fit and noise in the data.

Week 13 Feedback

• Thank you for submitting your work on time.
• When you make the requested changes to your spreadsheet, make sure to make corrections to your electronic notebook for the Week 13 assignment as well.
• Your electronic notebook is excellent. Keep up the good work.

Week 11 Feedback Part 1

• I looked over your spreadsheet and you need to make the following corrections:
  • You have a mistake in the equation for column P, you use the number "2" instead of the reference to cell "O2"
  • You did not perform the Bonferroni correction in column R or the IF statement in column S.
  • It is customary to use a "d" in front of "ZAP1" in your column headers to indicate that ZAP1 is deleted from that strain. Ordinarily we would use a delta to mean deleted, but that special character would mess up things downstream in the analysis, so we use a "d". Please put it in your column headers.

Week 7 Feedback

• Your Week 7 individual journal assignment was late by 29 minutes and your shared journal reflection was on time.
• You fulfilled all of the hyperlinks required for the assignment (back and forth to user page, to assignment, category).
• Your electronic notebook is minimal. The intent of an electronic notebook is to record what you did so that you or somebody else could reproduce what you did based on the information there. You needed to provide your MATLAB files, a description of what values you used for each run of the model and why you chose them, and the the resulting plots and your interpretation of what they mean. You only commented on how you worked with your partner, not what you actually did for the analysis.
• You needed to perform an analysis of the steady state.

Week 1 Redux

• I have reviewed the changes you made to the Week 1 assignment; thank you for submitting them on time.
• You made all of the requested changes, but I note that your usage of the summary field has dropped slightly from about 90% in the first assignment to 78% of the last 50 contributions. Remember that you should also write a summary for all files uploaded to the wiki.

Week 1 Feedback

Here is the feedback to your Week 1 journal assignment.

• Thank you for completing this assignment on time.
• The grade for this assignment is posted on the MyLMUConnect Grade Center for this course. You will be able to earn back the points you missed on this assignment by completing the requested revisions below by the Week 3 journal assignment deadline of midnight on Tuesday, February 3 (Monday night/Tuesday morning).
  • Every time you make a change to a wiki page, please type something in the summary field (found above the "Save page" button). You are doing this approximately 90% of the time, but you should aim for 100%.
  • The OpenWetWare e-mail link does not actually work (try it to see what I mean). Either fix this or make a "mailto" link to your e-mail address.
  • Under your section on "Work Experience", you did not provide the terms for your presidency/vice presidency of the Belles.
  • You did not use and "third" level subheadings (three equals signs or more). Be sure to utilize this feature to organize content on your journal pages.
  • You can also remove the OpenWetWare automated text from the bottom of this talk page.
