CPSC 141: Discrete Computational Mathematics I

Policies

Prerequisites:
If you do not have Math 12, or Math 115, you must have permission of instructor or risk being de-registered.
Homework:
All homework must be submitted on paper that is approximately 8½×11″. All homework must be stapled in the top left-hand corner; have a complete name and student number in the top right hand corner; and be easily readable.
Examination attendance:
Students are always expected to attend examinations at their normally scheduled time. If this proves impossible, or would cause a student a grave hardship: Students who have not made alternative arrangements by the time of the examination and who do not attend the examination receive 0%. Students who receive 0% for bona fide reasons which prevented them from contacing me prior to the examination and who provide me with medical or other documentation may have their course grading scheme changed appropriately.
Examination materials:
Lectures:
Attendance in this course is the student's responsibility and is not monitored by the instructor. Students are entirely responsible for being aware of material discussed in lecture, even if they are unavoidably prevented from attending.
Marking Scheme:
I reserve the right to change weightings given in the marking scheme on the course outline. Students are guaranteed that their letter grade will not decrease as the result of such a change.
Cell phones:
If you bring a cell-phone to class, please be prepared to share your conversation with the rest of the class.
Cheating:
First offenses result in a grade of -100% on the assignment in question and formal notification of the College Dean. Allowing someone to copy your work is cheating. The UNBC Calendar describes academic offenses and possible penalties in more detail.
