CSC444/344: Assessment [4/7] Previous pageContentsNext page

There will be weekly assignments, a midterm, and a final. The course grade will be computed as follows:

You must hand in the homework each week in order to receive the 10 points for homework. Note, however, that I will only review homework in detail for students whose final score is borderline (say between an A- and a B+).

The midterm and final will be cumulative. You must earn a passing grade on the midterm and final to pass the course.

There will be no make-up exams nor extra credit assignments. If there is an extreme emergency and you must miss an exam, you must notify me in advance and provide documented evidence of the emergency.

Students in the distance learning section of the course are expected to take both exams at the same time as the on-campus section of the course. If there is not sufficient space in the regular classroom to accommodate all students, another location will be provided for distance learning students.

Unless otherwise stated, homework assignments are due by 5:30PM before class the week after they are assigned. Any assignment handed in after the deadline will be considered late. Assignments that are late will lose 50% of the points for each day that they are late. No assignment will be accepted more than two days after its due date (including Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays). Assignment deadlines will be strictly enforced; however, your lowest homework score will be dropped in the calculation of your final grade.

Homework assignments must be submitted through the online system. Email submissions will not be accepted.

Distance learning students are subject to the same homework deadlines as students in the regular section of the course.

Program submissions will be assessed on whether they achieve the set task and the quality of the code.
