- Homework
- The purpose of the homework is for you to actively engage in
learning the
methods, techniques, and problem-solving skills in the course.
- It is acceptable (and actually encouraged) to discuss the
course material
and to work on homework problems with other students. However, each
student must
individually write up his or her own solution.
- It is a violation of the Honor Code to copy a homework
solution from other
people or other sources (such as a solutions manual).
- You are encouraged to check the final results of your
problem-solving work
by looking at the answers at the back of the textbook. If your final
answer
is not correct, you should reexamine your calculations and possibly
reconsider
your approach to solving the problem. Your written solution to any
problem
should show fully and clearly your work and methods to solve the
problem. It is
a violation of the Honor Code to simply copy the final answer from the
back of
the textbook.
- Tests, Qizzes and Exams
- All qizzes, tests, and exams must be taken in your classroom
or in the
specific area designated by your instructor.
- All qizzes, tests, and exams are closed-book with no notes
available
(either in writing or in electronic form).
- Calculation with graphing calculators is permitted, except
as designated
by your instructor. If you are using a calculator capable of symbolic
manipulations (like, e.g., TI-89, Casio Algebra FX 2.0, HP49G, etc),
you should
not use these capabilities. For example, if you are using a TI-89, it
must be in the approximate
mode
during the test, not in exact
or auto mode.
- All Graded Work
- You must write out a complete, honest, and detailed
acknowledgement of all
assistance you received and all resources you used (including other
people) on
all written work submitted for a grade. There is no specific format you
must
use.
- Ask your instructor if you are uncertain. When in doubt,
write it out.
- You must write out the Honor Pledge by hand and sign it.
