Course Policies
Integrity of Scholarship
Plagiarism will not be tolerated.
Incidents
of plagiarism will be taken seriously, and could result in your
expulsion
from the University. Other penalties include, but are not limited to,
receiving
a grade of 0 for the assignment or test in question, receiving an 'F'
for
the course. The course policies regarding Integrity of Scholarship are
described in the following very important document: http://www-cse.ucsd.edu/users/baden/Honesty.html.
You are assumed to be familiar with
the UCSD Policy on Integrity of Scholarship and the course policy as
described
in this document. If you have any questions about these policies, be
sure
to discuss them with us.
Re-grade Policy
Re-grade requests should be made to the TA
and will be accepted for one week only, starting from the day the
assignment
or exam is returned. If disagreements persist after the regrade, please
see Alin. Tampering with any graded paper is considered a very serious
form of cheating.
Late assignments
Makeups or extensions will not be granted
except in true hardship cases. If you miss a deadline or a test due to
illness or a personal emergency, let us know as soon as possible. An
extension
or makeup will be granted only if you can provide an adequate
justification.
You may be asked to document your absence, e.g. a note from a doctor or
supervisor. If your absence is planned, then you must notify us in
advance.
If you are absent from a test or miss a deadline without a reasonable
explanation,
you will receive a zero grade, and similarly, late assignments will
generally
not be accepted.
Running out of computer time the night
before the assignment is due is not a valid excuse for lateness. You
are
responsible for planning around such contingencies; you should monitor
your account balance and inform us well in advance (at least 3 working
days) of any deadline if your account balance runs out of time!!!!!!
Email
In the interest of managing the email
traffic
generated in a course of this size, we ask that you stick to a few
common-sense
principles. First, we want to maintain free and open lines of
communication
so that we can communicate urgent information in a timely fashion.
Thus,
your email messages should be brief, for example "I couldn't come
to
office hours today and I need to talk with you about X. Can we meet
sometime
on Wed afternoon?" Questions about course content or assignments
and
exams are best handled in office hours. If you must use email, please
try
to solve your problem first with the TA before contacting the professor.
We can usually respond to brief
messages
within one working day. Slightly longer messages may take more time to
generate a response, and we may not have time to answer long and
involved
messages. Please keep in mind that email is not an adequate
replacement
for personal contact, which is vital part of instruction. In
particular,
email is not a substitute for office hours or for attending class.
If you have any questions about these
policies
please see Alin during office hours.
