Lab/homework due dates:
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.
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 and at
other times at the discretion of the instructor.
Ethical issues/professional conduct:
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.
