Opus Evaluation

For each full month of the semester, you are to have fully completed a “part” of your Opus. Your Opus will consist of 3 parts, as well as the title/introduction and EoCE sections.

If you're curious as to how a “part” of the Opus will be evaluated, you may reference the following process. This will be performed for each course, and results recorded in your data/ directory.

In total, successful achievement of all items will result in a total evaluation of 102 checkpoints.
