Assignment Policy • •

• •

•

•

Assignments will be posted and announced on the course web page. All assignments must be submitted electronically (unless it is otherwise indicated explicitly). Hard-copy or written work, if required, must be handed in using the drop-off box located in BA2220 by 1 pm on the due date (at which time they are collected). Faxed or emailed assignments will NOT be accepted. You must work on all assignments by yourself. (See Cheating/Plagiarism for details.) Lateness. You have one grace day for the entire term for which you may use towards a late assignment without penalty. To use a grace day, you must specifically indicate so on your written assignment. (Submit a README.txt file with a statement if there is no written work required.) Without the statement or if your grace day has been used, you are subject to the following penalty: - You may turn in your assignment up to 2 days late. - For each day that you are late for, a 20% of the mark you get for your work is deducted (i.e. an assignment turned 2 days late with a mark of 80% will end up being 64%). No assignment will be accepted after 2 days (3 days if grace day is used), and will be given a grade of 0. The last assignment, however, must be received by Dec 7, 2007 due to university policy. Marking and Re-marking. Each assignment will be marked by one TA. The same TA will be monitoring the bulletin board before its due date. After returning an assignment, a postmarking office hour will be hosted by the TA in charge. Check the web page for announcement. You should come to the office hour to learn about how the assignment is marked. If you decide to request for re-marking, submit the initial request to the responsible TA within 7 days from the announced return date (no new requests will be accepted after that). Further requests should be taken up with the instructor. Cheating/Plagiarism. The policy of your faculty or school will be in effect. (See Arts and Sciences Code of Behaviour on Academic Matters at http://www.artsandscience.utoronto.ca/ofr/calendar/rules.htm#behaviour, and Francois Pitt's "How to Avoid Plagiarism" http://www.cs.toronto.edu/~fpitt/documents/plagiarism.html). You are encouraged to discuss problems with your classmates; however, all work that you submit must be your own. When you submit an assignment with your name on it or via your CDF account, you are certifying that you have done the work by yourself. Talk to the instructor if you are having difficulties with the course work.

Communication and Email Policy •

• •

Questions and comments regarding general course work should be posted on the course bulletin board at https://csc.cdf.toronto.edu/bb/YaBB.pl?board=CSC309H1F/. There are 6 boards: 1 main board for general requests, questions, feedbacks, or comments; 4 sub-boards for individual assignments; and 1 sub-board for test-related questions. Feel free to use the board to communicate any non-private course-related matters. The board will be monitored regularly and posts will be replied by TAs (or instructor) within 24 hours except on weekend or holidays. In particular, use the board to request additional office hours from TAs. Official announcements will be made on the course web page under “Announcements”. Email the instructor or the TAs only on matters that you feel inappropriate for the bulleting board, e.g., to set up an appointment outside of the posted office hours, or to discuss your specific situation. Your email will be replied within 24 hours except on weekend or holidays. Please make sure to include CSC309 in the subject line. Page 3 of 4
