1) Practicum: Practicum sessions will include computer projects and student project presentations. Some of the practicum sessions may be allocated to problem-solving sessions and/or exams. \\ 2) Homework: No credit will be given for late weekly homework assignments for any reason. It is extremely important that the homework problems be worked regularly - not only for the sake of the grade, but also to ensure sufficient facility in problem solving so that you can perform well within the constraints of an hour's test or final exam. \\ 3) Miscellaneous (please read this carefully!) Please note that group study for working out solutions to homework problems and computer projects is acceptable, and helpful to many students. However, the homework or project report you turn in should be written out on your own, and not copied verbatim from another student's work or from the material found Online. It should reflect your understanding of the material. Homework problems or practicum reports which are turned in and found to be verbatim copies of each other will be given zero credit, regardless of which is the original work. All work on an exam is to be entirely on your own.
