Course Policy

Assignments

Weekly Assignments: Assignments based on course reading and lecture material will be assigned on a weekly basis. All work must be neat and legible. Illegible or poorly formatted work receives no credit. No late homeworks will be accepted. Absolutley no exceptions. The homework is primarily designed to help you learn the material and prepare you for the exams. In the case you absolutely cannot turn in a homework, note that each homework assignment is worth less than 1 percent of your grade.

Programming Projects

There will be substantial programming projects.

No late projects will be accepted. If you have not completed the project by the due date, be sure to submit whatever results you have for partial credit. If you submit nothing by the due date, you will receive no credit for the project.

Excused absences are handled in accordance with CSU policies. If you are ill please let us know right away. CSU requires verifiable proof (e.g. a note from the health center) for students who wish to not be penalized for missed classes and work.

Turning in Work

Assignments will be submitted via RamCT unless stated otherwise.
Collaboration: We encourage you to talk with other students about your assignments and questions, but make sure you do your own homework. You may not copy another student's program or other work (either with or without their knowledge), nor write code or other work for them.
Please read the departmental policy statement regarding incompletes, academic integrity, and class attendance. This policy statement can be read here: student information.
