The "I'm missing class" form (fill this out as soon as possible if you're sick or have to miss class for another reason)

Final grades for DS2001 will be assigned based on the following scale:
If you are ill in any way, we expect you not to attend class in person. In lieu of attending class in person, fill out this form as early as possible and follow up with Felix as necessary.

About DS2001
This is a practicum and co-requisite for DS2000, Programming With Data. In the DS2000 lecture, you’ll learn foundational data science and programming concepts. In practicum, we’ll complete practice exercises, review material, and study and discuss issues related to data within a computer science context.
New programmers are welcome; we don't assume any previous knowledge and we'll start from the very beginning.

DS2000/2001 are organized as in-person, on-ground classes for Fall 2021. This means that we expect you to attend class in person, keep up with Northeastern's testing schedule, and follow the below guidelines if you find that you are unable to attend practicum due to illness or other extenuating circumstance for any given week.
The practicum assignments are designed to be completed within the 100-minute officially scheduled time. However, we know that schedules are harder to work with this semester, and so the deadline for practicums will officially be on Fridays at 12:00pm (noon) eastern. We recommend submitting your work in real-time at the end of your section, but it’s OK if your preference is to submit later as long as you meet that last deadline.
