Assignment policy:
  1. Assignments will be due every week. Some will include Matlab problems to get practical exposure to the concepts seen during lecture. Please make sure you have access to Matlab. There is information for EWS here and for downloading here.
     
  2. Assignments are due on Tuesdays at 10.50 a.m. and submissions will be made via Gradescope. You can find instructions on how to scan/upload your assignments here.
     
  3. Late assignments will receive no credit.
    No exceptions, so don't wait until the last minute to submit it and then run into internet issues.
     
  4. In order to account for sickness, travel or internet issues, your two lowest assignment grades will be dropped.
     
  5. Make sure you box your answers and match problem parts accurately in Gradescope, or you will be deducted 10% of the corresponding problem part.
     
  6. Make sure that your assignments are neat enough to read. Graders has the flexibility to deduct points for lack of neatness.
     
  7. Assignments constitute an essential component of your learning experience in the course and prepare you for your exams in effective ways. Investing time to do your assignments with care will pay off when you are taking your exams.
    You will be expected to provide detailed explanations of your solutions in order to obtain full credit in your assignments. Conversely, solutions lacking full explanations will receive zero credit even when the answer provided may be correct and further incorrect answers without any work shown may lead to 'academic integrity violation' cases being opened against you.
    You are encouraged to collaborate to understand the problems in the assignment, but each student should solve the problems individually for submission even if they work together initially to understand how to solve the problems. Copying a joint solution is not acceptable.
    Please keep these cautionary remarks in mind as you are working out your assignments and avoid submitting unsubstantiated solutions to avoid any misinterpretations as explained above.
     
  8. Regrades: You will receive an email from Gradescope so you can log in and see your graded assignment. If after looking at the posted solutions, you feel there was an inaccuracy in the grading of your assignment, you can request a regrade within Gradescope itself.
    Make sure you submit regrade requests before 10.50 am on the Tuesday after your graded assignment is made available via Gradescope. Regrades will not be accepted after that date.
