There were couple of mails regarding submission of assignments. Hope following helps
3. Indicate in the subject line of mail - Chapter #, Assignment submission for example, for chapter 1 assignments, indicate as

for assignments)
Moderators need to send participant wise (including evaluation of themselves) marks (out of 10) to
ram@ces.iisc.ernet.in (could be in MS Excel)
5. assignments carry marks (and good question by moderators - they will get 'bonus' marks)
6. Chapter 2 - moderators, please plan your session well in advance.
--> Take up discussion - section wise
--> Divide sections of a chapter among moderators
--> Announce one assignment at the end of respective day ( 8.20 pm)
--> Once you get satisfactory answer for your question, proceed to the next section
--> Allow sharing of case studies
--> Need to evaluate the performance of participants.
--> Mail me the marks for each participant (including moderators).
--> For each day evaluate for 10 marks - depending on level of interaction, activity level, quality of answer...
Hope these clarifies most of queries raised as on date
