GRADING
The final grade is calculated as follows:
Assignments (35%): 4 equally weighted assignments
Midterm (25%)
Final (40%)
Remarks:
- You have the chance to improve your final grade by adding an extra of at most 10%. There are some
optional bonus
(that count as a surplus to your final grade):
- 2-3 short quizzes each of 15 minutes long. All together will count
as
a total surplus of 5%.
- One exam testing mathematical prerequisites. This counts as a 5% top-up to your final grade.
- Your final grade is amenable to change, conforming to
departmental requirements.
PREPARING ASSIGNMENT REPORTS -
COLLABORATION POLICY
- The assignments should be done individually by each student. You
are not only allowed but also
encouraged to form study groups. Your assignment report must be prepared solely by you
(avoid plagiarism).
- Every assignment comes with a cover page. Please mention every person you collaborated with or write
"Collaborators: none". Fill-in every field and sign the cover page in the designated area.
- No late assignments unless there is an acceptable and documented reason. In case of a late
assignment you must inform the instructor before the deadline.
- Remarking requests: Every remarking request should be addressed directly to the instructor of the
course. You should attach an extra cover page mentioning the reason for remarking.
- Here is a document containing suggestions of how to present your work
both in the assignments and tests [in html].
