Guidelines
You are allowed unlimited access to MapleTA assignments, but only the first four attempts at a given assignment are marked for credit. The assignments must be completed in sequential order.
To avoid access conflicts, do not open more than one browser window to MapleTA at one time and make sure you log out of the site once you are done. If MapleTA indicates that you have an open assignment, and you have already finished that assignment for credit, go ahead and re-mark the assignment in order to proceed to the next assignment.
Note that a complete record of your previous MapleTA results is available in your MapleTA account. You can use this record to verify that your assignment credit has been properly logged into the system.
MapleTA Marking
The contribution of MapleTA assignment credit to total course grade is discussed in the course syllabus. The MapleTA assignments are evaluated as a whole: for example, if an assignment is missing, that assignment is marked as zero, but other completed assignments will still count. At the end of the semester, the entire semester of assignments is evaluated at 10% weight of the course mark; the 10% weighting is not sub-divided, all MapleTA assignments are counted together. Note that you will always receive the best possible mark, i.e., your final course grade is calculated with and without MapleTA, and the highest total is assigned (subject to the 45% total exam percentage rule). Doing MapleTA assignments is never detrimental to your grade and is strongly recommended.
