			Check Your Marks
		      May 19, 2013 3:51 PM
 	
Please check your marks.  Download the file "marks.zip" from the
Course Information part of the Content section.  The marks.zip
file itself contains one encrypted zip'ed text file per student.
For example, inside the mark.zip file you'll find
A00123456.txt.zip which contains the marks for the student with
ID A00123456.

To extract the text file you'll need to use a program capable of
handling AES-128 encryption (e.g. 7zip).  You'll also need your
individual password which will have been e-mailed to you
separately.

The marking scheme is described in the course outline.  Please
let me know as soon as possible and before the end of exam week
if any of your marks have not been recorded or if they have been
recorded or computed incorrectly.

You may have to check the D2L "e-mail" system under
myTools->Email for the password.
