. If we assume that the overall score of a course is 100 points, the maximum pointsattainable by any student at the end of the course is clearly 100. However, the maximum pointsattainable by student at week 5 will depend on the number of homework assignments, projects ormidterm exams completed at that stage and their respective weights in computing the overall 100points that the course is based on. For instance, in this statistics course the grading scheme was: • Homework: 30% (5 assignments, 6% each assignment) • Midterm exam: 30% • Final exam: 40%The deadline for dropping this course was the end of week 8 of the semester. By the end of thatweek, the students had finished 3 homework assignments and the midterm exam. The maximumnumber of

The activities include teaching the inventory control policies tostudents in a regular class setting, then providing an overview on a game developed on MS Excel.In the game, the lead time and customer demand variables are defined uncertain, and not given tostudents, which make the assignment an ill-structured problem.
