Moodle websites will be used by students for all document submissions and for Supervisors to provide evaluation feedback and grades. The Course Coordinator will provide addition information regarding the use of Moodle for this purpose. Please consult the Course Coordinator if you have any difficulties in this area.
The CHEE 405/406/421 Course Coordinator (David Poirier) will send email notification and reminders to Students and Supervisors about all relevant upcoming events and deadlines.
Supervisors are not required to grade the progress memos and timesheet/calendars that students submit via Moodle. These are for the Course Coordinator’s reference (to help gauge student progress, or lack thereof). The CHEE 405/406/421 Course Coordinator (David Poirier) will mark and assign grades for these “monthly” progress memos.
