| An overall 65 percent of the total evaluation points will be considered minimal passing with a required minimum of 50% of EACH of the four aspects of the class being necessary, but not sufficient to pass the class.
In this course you are being graded as an individual and you must do your own work. Academic dishonesty will result in failure for the assignment and may result in failure for the entire course. See University policies: Academic Honesty and Code of Student Rights and Responsibilities.
Assignments will be weighted by difficulty and will be graded on design, style, documentation, correctness, and completeness. Assignments are NOT turned-in to the Department Office NOR slid under the instructor's office door. Those assignments that are to be turned-in via paper must be turned-in at the start of the specified lecture.
Late assignments receive an automatic 20% penalty and an additional reduction of 20% for every additional week. If you are unable to take an examination or if you miss an assignment due date because of illness or emergency, you must present verifying written documentation.
