Quizzes and exams

*    You may work together on the on-line quizzes and exams if you wish, but if you do, this should involve only discussion of the questions. All submitted work must be your own. If your answers in a quiz or exam closely resemble those of anyone else in this class, it will be considered cheating. This will automatically result in at least no credit for the quiz or exam in question, possibly also failure of the course, and you will be referred to your dean for disciplinary action. This is university policy and there will be no exceptions.

*    Late submissions will not be accepted (unless you have good reasons for not being able to complete an assignment on time and these are explained to the instructor well in advance of the assignment due date).

*    Since most of the testing will be done on-line, please be careful when you type; our time should be spent helping you learn, not manually correcting grades because you mistyped most of your answers (and therefore they were not accepted as correct). Please familiarize yourselves with your keyboard and always make sure you review your answers before submitting them.

*    In order to help you, we will also circulate a leaflet with basics about exam-taking using webct.

 

In the classroom

*    Feel free to ask questions in class. Come to office hours or sections if you have questions above and beyond those addressed in class.

*    Come to class on time!

*    No cell phones, pagers, or disruptions of any kind during the class hour, please.

 

General

*    If you miss class for whatever reason, please visit webct to get the handouts. It's your responsibility to remember to do this.

*    Don't come to our office hours expecting a run-down of what we did in a class that you missed, for whatever reason. Visit the web site to get the handouts (and any keys), consult with a friend, and then if you have additional questions, come to our office hours or to section with them.
