If you miss more than 3 lectures, then for each lecture missed (beyond 3), the cumulative score on the assignments required to earn credit for the class is increased by 5 points. For example, if you attend 10 of the 15 lectures, credit will be given if your cumulative score on the assignments is 80% or better. |
| Collaboration Policy |
The homework assignment must be done individually. Collaboration on the homework assignment is not allowed. Programs can be done in pairs. You may have one partner for each programming assignment. You may not pair program with multiple partners on the same assignment. Your partner must be currently enrolled in this course. Using someone else's work or allowing someone else to have access to your work in violation of the collaboration policy is academic misconduct and will be dealt with in accordance with University Academic Misconduct procedures. If you are not sure if something violates the collaboration policy, please ask me. Ignorance of what constitutes a violation of the policy is not a defense; it is your responsibility to know what is allowed/disallowed. |
