Dr. Melanie A. Sutton [all classes]

Course policies and such...

• Program/lab/homework due dates: Programs, labs, and/or homeworks should be turned in no later than the assigned due date. If you are having difficulty with your assignments, please take the initiative to see me well before any deadlines.

  Laboratory exercises are posted on the Weekly Course Outline page for this class, and should be completed sometime during the assigned week. These exercises will help you to avoid common mistakes and thus are an investment in terms of your training to become a proficient scientist. We will go over the assignments in class and questions related to each of them will show up on tests.

• Examinations: Make-up examinations will be given in cases of medical emergencies.

• Ethical issues/professional conduct: This course is also structured around a set of graded assignments to enable you to develop and build upon your analytical and logical reasoning skills. Please remember that, unless otherwise indicated, individual work must be turned in for all assignments. Please review UWF's on-line plagiarism policy for additional information. For those assignments and labs where you are instructed to seek out a classmate and work together, please note that each student is still required to understand all the material covered in the given assignment. We will also sometimes work out problems in class in small groups so that you can see alternative approaches.

If you have a need for any in-class accommodations or special test-taking arrangements, please get in touch with me at your earliest convenience.
