ASSIGNMENTS (SPRING 2012)

Jump Image Fast Links: Problem Sets | Online/Programming Assignments

There are two types of assignments you will complete in this course. Problem sets help you test your understanding of conceptual concepts in this course. Online/programming assignments help you test your programming skills or use of other online tools presented in class.

Academic Integrity

Remember that all work you submit must be your own work. You may ask others general questions about the assignments or course material, but you cannot share your answers to assignments or use all or part of another's solution. If you use material from another source, such as a quotation or code fragment, you should cite your source and check with the instructors to be sure you are not plagiarizing or committing academic dishonesty.

REQUIRED FOR ALL STUDENTS: Academic Integrity Form (pdf) - Print out this pdf file, read it carefully, fill in the required information, sign it, and hand this in at the start of class on Friday, January 20. This assignment is not graded, but you must hand this in to receive grades for all course assignments and exams.

Problem Sets

Policy on Problem Sets

Each problem set should be typed (or very neatly hand-written), stapled, and handed in on the given due date at the start of the class. All problem sets will be due on Fridays unless noted otherwise. There will be 11 problem sets, and we will drop the lowest grade of these assignments. All problem sets must be handed in on time; no late problem sets will be accepted.
