Hardware: Lesson Choices
Choose one of the two graded assessments. Choice 1: If you want to build a computer using simulated hardware components, choose the Quiz/Graded Plugin. | Choice 2: If you want to build a computer using real hardware components, choose the Peer Review. Note that once you complete one of the two graded assessment, you may still be prompted to complete the other assessment and the week completion check mark may not appear. This a current limitation on the UI that Coursera will be fixing soon. You can disregard and continue through the course, your progress will be recorded.
