During the week after the grades are announced for the first exam, a student has the opportunity to change from team to individual . For students in the team category, homework assignments are submitted as a team. The team contribution grade is based on discussion section attendance and TA subjective evaluation. If a team member fails to do his or her assignment, the entire team will be penalized for the missing work. All solutions to the homework assignments, discussion section events, and exams will be put on reserve in a binder in the Engineering Library.
All exams are open book and open notes.
Arithmetic errors on exams and homework are usually penalized a few points. Conceptual errors or errors in logic are severely penalized. On exams, always show the computations or logic that led to your solution, label the solution, and cross out any work that you do not want graded. If your exam contains erroneous information or computations, even if you have the correct solution, you will still be penalized. Hand in your note and exam to me no later than 2 weeks after the exam is returned.
