Announcements
Team evaluation + Thank you!
A thank you from my side as well! Being a TA was a new experience for me and you all made it quite a pleasant one! Wednesday's expo was great and I really was amazed by all your yo-yo's! That must have been quite some work :-p
On another note: The team evaluation is now posted. Please complete it until Monday 11:59pm. It is worth 5% of the grade. All details are explained in the assignment which can be found under Homework -> Evaluation. Please submit your evalution online.
Teamwork in a high performance environment can always be difficult. Please provide an honest and objective evaluation of the teamwork during the project and the contribution of each member of your team.
For the ones of you who are interested in manufacturing or studying at the LMP (e.g. MEngM program), feel always free to email us/me!
And of course don't forget to evaluate 2.008 to tell us what you liked and didn't like > http://web.mit.edu/subjectevaluation/ !
Good luck for everyone who has finals!
Enjoy the break!
Best,
Martin
