The exam for my Computer Architecture and Design class finished 45 minutes ago. It was a good sign that more than 80% of the students were still there at the end and hadn't left early. I'll probably be busy marking these exam papers (and some courseworks) over the holiday (Jubilee) weekend so expect more postings than normal as sanity-restoring displacement activities kick in ;-)

There are only(!) 105 exam papers to mark - 3 questions per paper. In a week's time, the exam for my first year Computer Organisation class takes place. About twice the number of students and only a few days grace in which to mark the papers.

So much to do. So little time...
