Feedback on Coding Excercise 2A+B
Hi Ann,
when do we receive feedback on the submitted coding exercises 2A+B? Where will it be published?
Are we supposed to re-code the excercise based on our discussion yesterday or will be additional material available?
Thanks
Now that we received the feedback, I have a question about it:
an f-measure over 0.4 is “high” - does that mean that I should not touch my codings for the documents when I have a f-measure over 0.4?
I mean, sure, I could improve it - but I could also make it worse …
Thank you for your help!
Is it just me, or are there still some students left who haven’t received their score?
The numbers we have reported to you are based on the class average. They also align with what Andreas and I calculated for ourselves when we did this exercise.
The process of coding documents is usually considered an iterative process, with the researcher going back over documents and adjusting codings based on new knowledge which was gained through the research process. Whether you choose to go over the documents again is a matter of personal choice. You may feel that you have no new insights you could apply to those documents, or that it is not the most productive use of your time. Conversely, you may be inspired to apply your thoughts after Tuesday’s review, or be inspired to practice the actual research process.
Two things should be noted. First, the average (and thus the ‘better than average’ and ‘worse than average’) will be re-calculated for the final assignment. Therefore work which is ‘better than average’ in the earlier assignments could change its relative ranking even if the absolute number doesn’t change. Second, there is of course no guarantee that you would be able to improve your coding if you re-code the document, although it is of course hoped that the classroom discussion gave you further insight. However, if the f-measure is extremely high (multiple deviations above the norm) it may not be possible to improve your coding.
thank you very much for the clarification Ann
