Assignment
is due at the beginning of the class. No late work is accepted. Plagiarism
is defined as “to steal and pass off (the ideas or words of another) as
one's own, to use (another's production) without crediting the source” and
“to commit literary theft: present as new and original an idea or product
derived from an existing source” as on Merriam-Webster Online http://www.m-w.com/.
Refer to http://www.lib.utk.edu/instruction/plagiarism/
for more details.
Assignments: Assignments will be given throughout
the semester, both in-class and out-of-class. These assignments will be
graded based on effort and organization. Collaboration with
other classmates is permissible (unless otherwise indicated), but each
student is expected to turn in his/her own assignment. Late assignments
will be given a 10% grade penalty per day. Out-of-class assignments are due
at the beginning of class. Unorganized or unstapled assignments will result
in a grade penalty. Effort is defined as an earnest or strenuous
attempt. All work must be shown for full credit.
Project:
There will be a group
project assigned during the semester. The project will be a hands-on
opportunity to apply the techniques discussed in class to an application.
Late project reports will not be accepted. Groups will be assigned.
Collaboration between group members is required; whereas, collaboration
with members outside of the group is not allowed. The project may be separated
into multiple phases, each with its own due date, more details will be
provided throughout the semester.
Quizzes: There will be no makeup quizzes (except under extreme
circumstances), and the student should give 48-hours prior notice
to the instructor so the makeup can be scheduled for before the
regular quiz date.
