Late work and/or extensions:
If you seek an extension on
an assignment and the request occurs after the due date or time, your
request will be summarily denied (except in the most extraordinary
circumstances). Such requests that occur before the due date and time will be
considered on a case-by-case basis.
Grading policy:
Your grade will be determined by your performance in four areas:
- Three tests (30%) -- Tests will occur during regular class meeting
times on 19 February, 4 April, and 2 May. Collaborative work on tests is not
permitted.
-
Quizzes (25%) -- All quizzes are take-home and
will be assigned and
collected on a weekly basis (except those weeks when tests occur). Generally,
quizzes are available online
on Fridays and are due at the beginning
of class on the following Tuesday. Although collaborative work on quizzes is
encouraged, each student must hand in his/her own quiz paper.
-
Computer Exercises (15%) --
At the end of each chapter of the text
is a set of exercises using the Matlab software package. Such exercises will
be assigned on a semi-regular basis. You may work on these exercises in groups
of at most three.
- Final exam (30%) -- Wednesday, 14 May, 1:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m.
Collaborative work on the final exam is not permitted.

x < 80
D: 60 < x < 70
