Introduction to Artificial Intelligence

OPTIONAL MIDTERM

• The Midterm is optional. The purpose is to give you more feedback before drop date.
• You midterm grade will be factored in using a scaled version of the formula on the class web page.
• I will give out the midterm at the end of class Tuesday.
• If you sign out a copy of the midterm, YOU HAVE TO TAKE IT AND TURN IT IN.
• The midterm should take a couple hours. You have to give it back to me by putting it in my box in the copier room in COC at noon on WEDNESDAY (1 day later).
• The midterm is take home and open book.
• You have to work individually on it.
• Last years exams are on this year's class web page.
• Since this exam is take home and open book, it will be different from last year's exam. Questions will require deeper answers, and may require more essay answers.
