This is subject to change but is a rough estimate
45% | Lab and Homework assignments |
10% | Class participation, attendance, and pre-reading quizzes |
20% | Midterm Examination |
25% | Final Examination |
As discussed in responsibilities, your participation involves:
There will be one midterm examination and one final for the semester. Details and dates will be released as they are available. Please read the section on accommodations if you are need of extra time. You must inform me of accommodations or conflicts at least 2 weeks in advance of an exam.
Lab assignments are submitted electronically using the handin44 program, and are typically due by 11:59 p.m. on the due date. You may submit your assignment multiple times, but each submission overwrites the previous one and only the final submission will be graded. Most of the programming/lab assignments will provide the option of working in pairs. Written homeworks will most likely be assigned to individuals and not pairs.
Late Policy: Each individual will be given 3 late days for the semester and no more than 2 per assignments (i.e., lab or written homework). This will encompass any reason - illness, interviews, paper deadlines, etc. Past these days, late assignments will not be accepted except in very rare, extreme circumstances. In those cases, a penalty of 20% per late day will be assigned. You should budget your 3 days to account for future illnesses or assignment deadlines for other courses. Even if you do not fully complete a lab assignment you should submit what you have done to receive partial credit. Late days count against both partners in a group lab.
