Homework
Graded weekly assignments
There will be regular graded HW assignments, assigned on a weekly basis and
posted on the main Coursesite. These will be due via the section specific Coursesite
on Tuesday of the following week at 11 pm Eastern Standard Time. Answer Keys
will be published the next day (Wednesday) on the main Coursesite. Late HW will
not be accepted. Each HW will consist of approximate 18-20 problems - about six
problems per covered book section - and you will be required to turn in the solutions
to all of the assigned problems. However, only five problems will be graded - but
you will not know in advance which ones. The graded problems will be graded on
a 0, 1, 2 scale. So, each HW assignment is out of 10 points.
There will be 15 HWs in total HW 0 - Hw 14. HW 0 is not graded but its submission
is required in short order to insure that all are comfortable with the submission
protocols. HW 14 will also not be graded. This leaves 13 graded HWs.
In part to compensate for illness, bad luck, etc., the lowest three homework scores
of HW1 - HW 13 will be dropped. Students may discuss the homework with other
students, but must write their solutions individually.
Copying of hand-written,
typed, or on-line solutions is not allowed under any circumstances and will be re-
ported as plagiarism.
(More information about academic integrity can be found
at
www.lehigh.edu/~indost/conduct/aiforstudents.shtml
.) Students are ad-
vised not to upload solutions (for either tests or homeworks) to any internet site.
Quizzes
There will be weekly quizzes in recitation, except for the first, last, and
exam weeks. The lowest two quizzes will be dropped.
