ICS 23 / CSE 23 - How to Submit Projects


The procedure

This quarter, we're using a system we built called Checkmate, which allows you to submit your projects via the Web. In order to use it, you first have to activate your UCInetID if you haven't already. UCI provides all its students with basic computing, including electronic mail and other Internet services, via a "UCInetID" computer account. Instructions for activating this account are available from several sources, but perhaps the easiest way is to activate your account on-line at activate.uci.edu. All ICS 23 students need this account, both for using Checkmate, and also so that the course staff can email you when necessary. If you have not activated your UCInetID, do so immediately.

To use Checkmate once you've activated your UCInetID, all you need to do is go to checkmate.ics.uci.edu, log in using your UCInetID, and follow the instructions there. (If you get a message about security certificates, just click "Continue.")

If you have any reason to believe that the system isn't working as you believe it should, read the instructions carefully, try it a second time, and if you're still having difficulty, send us an email describing the problem as precisely as possible. If you keep us informed about problems in a timely way, we will make sure that any problems with Checkmate won't affect your grade.
