Academic Integrity
So important that it gets its own page
Attendance
You are expected to attend class (on both Tuesdays and Thursdays) and you will lose points if you fail to show up more than three times. We take attendance using either clicker questions or in-class quizzes. If you need to be absent for more than three classes for any reason, reach out to the instructors.
If you are caught trying to sign in or pick up a quiz for an absent friend, we will consider this an academic integrity violation and treat it as such. If your friends ask you to do this for them, tell them you do not want an F in the course and academic integrity violation on your record.
Q&S Forms
There will usually be a Q&S form due before every class. We expect you to complete these before class begins. Like attendance, you will only be penalized after missing more than three Q&S forms. If you fail to turn these in on time for class, you can still receive 70% credit by turning them in by 11:59PM Central on Friday.
Labs
Labs come with a list of JUnit tests to help guide students past common problems. Passing all of the tests does not guarantee anything when it comes to a grade on the assignment. Labs are read by the instructors. Students are provided feedback and given an initial grade. Students then have a week from that feedback to turn in revisions which will then be reviewed and given a final grade.
Late Submissions, Good Faith Efforts
Failure to turn in a good faith effort of lab on time is penalized a mere 10% and (perhaps more significantly) misses out on valuable feedback.
An example of a good faith submission might be a mostly completed assignment with a couple bugs and comments for graders that detail what went wrong in your implementation.
Studios
Studios are graded automatically by how well they passes their JUnit test suites.
Studios can receive up to 70% credit up to a week after they are due.
It should go without saying that any dishonest effort to pass the tests without solving the problem would be an academic integrity violation.
Weekly Updates
Every week, you will be sent an email updating you about your progress for that week. The update will include how much credit you received on the Q&S forms, your progress on the current assignment, and any comments that TAs might have for you based on the state of your assignment. These weekly updates are only meant to help you and do not represent your final grades. For example, even if you do not get full credit on the Q&S forms because you got quiz questions wrong, as long as we see that the majority of your Q&S forms received full credit, wrong answers from genuine attempts will not be docked.
