Honor Code
Please refamiliarize yourself with
the GT honor code.
Homework
There will be approximately 6 homework assignments distributed throughout the semester. Homework will be graded and will contribute to your course grade. In addition, doing the homework should help you explore and understand the
concepts covered on the tests. Your are encouraged to discuss the
course material and homework problems with other classmates, but you should work the problems on paper on your own - no copying. Generally what this means is: 1) try the problem on your own, 2) then if necessary ask for help/suggestions, 3) then go back on your own and try to implement the suggestions.
Do not work with another student on the homework step-by-step.
Homework must also be in a standard format.
Homework must be turned in by the beginning of class (on the
designated due date) to be considered "not late." Late homework may be
turned in, but there is no guarantee that it will be graded. If it is graded,
there will be a penalty assessed. If unusual circumstances arise that will
prevent you from finishing your homework on time, please contact the instructor
IN ADVANCE, so that special consideration can be given.
Project
There will be a computer project assigned that will include a written report.
Exams
There will be one midterm (open book - tentatively scheduled for the week of June 6) and one
final exam on June 22.
