week11 quiz, question 4

The Joy of Computing using Python
Error in Evaluation of Week 11 Quiz - Question 4

I am reaching out regarding an error in the evaluation of Question 4 in Week 11’s quiz. The question asked how to simulate pressing Enter, and the lecture material (Lecture Part 4) clearly demonstrates using Keys.ENTER. Based on this, I answered Keys.ENTER, but it was marked incorrect. While I know that both are the right methods, I marked my answer based on the lectures material. I dont think I should be penalized for that.

This incorrect marking directly impacts my grade, despite following the instruction provided in the course content. I request that this question be reviewed and my answer be re-evaluated accordingly.

Thank you for addressing this oversight.

Hi,

input field.send keys(Keys.RETURN) sends the Enter (Return) key to the input
field, simulating the action of pressing Enter. While Keys.ENTER could also work,
Keys.RETURN is the standard in this context.

Thanks
TA

Will you be kind enough to update the marks of that week's assignment then ?

The lecture material (Lecture Part 4) clearly demonstrates using Keys.ENTER. and I am aware that both work technically, I followed the course material to answer the quiz and getting penalised for that isnt fair at all. Kindly look into that

Dear TA,

First the question itself wrong. In Python the method is  send_keys(Keys.RETURN) or  send_keys(Keys.ENTER) and not  send keys(Keys.RETURN)

sendKeys(Keys.RETURN) is  available in JAVA not Python. Kindly look in to the mistake and help the learner.

Thank you

Yes, Q.4 in  Week 11: Assignment 11 Quiz was wrong.

There was a typo in the question.  send keys(Keys.RETURN)

Underscores were missing from the options.

Even after that the question was not evaluated in favour of the students.

I don't understand why the course TAs are having a difficult time to understand this, why can't they just admit their mistake in evaluation of this question and re-evaluate the question. Don't they understand that these assignment scores affect our overall score.
This is not fair.

But I think we, as NPTEL Learners, should give up this hope that they will rectify their mistakes.

If you remember, @Kamala Malar, in the last semester run of this course, there were a number of wrong & ambiguous questions and their incorrect evaluations.

But the course TAs kept defending their wrong answers. Ultimately, the NPTEL Learners lost their marks.

They don't understand that its their duty to put correct and non-ambiguous questions in the assignments and be ready to re-evaluate the question if there is any inadvertent mistake.

I hope the conduction of this course will improve in future.

@ Prateek Don't Worry  Prof. Sudarshan Iyengar Sir Team will take necessary steps to solve the issue.
