Examinations & Major
Assignments: The course assignments will include 5 homework assignments and
a project (in 3 parts). There are no examinations. I am flexible
about late submission of assignments, but I will not accept a late
submission of an assignment without prior approval. Homework assignments will include essay and analytical problems that cover topics from the lectures and readings. Projects will be team projects on specifications and design, will require the use of software tools. Grades will be based on homework (45%),
projects (45%), and class participation (10%). Final grades will be calculated
with specific grades assigned to average scores in a more or less traditional
manner (>92 = A; 88-91 = A-; 85-87 =B+; 82-84 = B; 78-81 = B-; 75-77 =C+;
72-74 =C; 68-71 = C-; 63-67 = D; <63 =F). NOTE: These have been changed to
reflect the new grading structure. I reserve the right to review the grade
distribution and lower the ranges of scores for a given grade
(e.g., perhaps 85-89 = A-; >90 = A). Students always expected to work
independently, except when collaboration is explicitly expected (such as for the
team projects). Failure to do independent work may result in a failing grade
for the assignment or, in some cases, for the course. Contacts
