Homework Policy:
- Please turn in your homework on the date due before the lecture starts. NO late homework will be collected.
- Definition of “late”: when class is over and the instructor steps outside the classroom, homework turned in thereafter will be considered as “late” and will not be collected.
- Having no textbook is not a valid excuse for not doing your homework. It is the student’s responsibility to acquire textbook for his/her study and bring to the classroom.
- Homework can be turned in earlier than the due date.
- Homework dropped in the instructor’s departmental mailbox will NOT be collected;
- Homework slid into the instructor’s office will NOT be collected.
- Homework dropped in the “homework dropbox” in front of the department door will NOT be collected.
- If you want to turn in your homework other than the date due or if you want to turn in your homework outside the classroom, you need to turn in your homework to the Instructor either IN PERSON or a scanned copy through email to the TA with copy to the Instructor.
- You can ask your friend/classmate to turn in homework for you
- Homework must be stapled, instructor or TA will not be responsible for lost loose homework.
- Exceptions (late homework will be collected): medical emergency (student and important ones), transportation/traffic emergency; religious holidays/duty, jury duty and military duty. Evidences must be submitted.
Exams and Quizzes:
(1)Quizzes are open book and open notes. Exams are closed book closed notes with formula sheets.
(2)Formula sheets can be maximum 4 pages, A4 or letter size.
(3)Each student is responsible for preparing his/her own formula sheets.
(4)Formula sheets could include anything BUT: solutions to homework or examples. Student who failed to follow this rule will score zero in the exam and this cheating matter will be reported to the department and university.
(5)Formula sheets with your name must be turned in with the exam papers. Student who failed to follow this rule will score zero in the exam and this cheating matter will be reported to the department and university.
(6)There will be NO make-up quiz.
(7)There will be NOmake-up exam. Exceptions: medical emergency (student and important ones), transportation/traffic emergency; religious holidays/duty, jury duty and military duty. Documentary evidences must be submitted.
Disability Accommodations: If you need academic accommodations for disability you must have document which verifies the disability and makes you eligible for accommodations, then you can schedule an appointment with the instructor to make appropriate arrangements.
Academic Dishonesty:
There is a zero tolerance policy. Cheating of whatsoever will result in an automatic ‘F’ in this course and the matter will be turned over to the appropriate student disciplinary committee.
