Homework

You will have weekly chapter assignments. These assignments consist of review questions, programs, and a quiz.

Assignments are due on the date indicated. No assignment will be accepted after the due date.

All work will be submitted in our Learning Management System (Canvas) using the assignments submission buttons or as an assessment (test).


Quizzes

Weekly quizzes will be given covering each chapter.

Lowest quiz grade will be dropped. Questions consist of true/false

questions. No make-up quizzes will be given.


Tests

2 Tests (midterm and final) consisting of approximately 10 multiple choice questions per chapter.

Two questions per test will be thrown out. Tests will only cover the chapters

indicated in the Calendar/Assignment Summary document.

You must notify me in advance if you will miss a test. Otherwise, you will receive a zero for the test.

Programming Project

Student will complete a programming project that represents a real world problem. The project will use all of concepts learned in the course.

We will be discussing the project as the semester progresses.



Virtual Classes

I will hold virtual classes each week for all online courses.

The schedule of virtual classes will be published the first week of class.

Virtual classes are optional, but I highly recommend you attend. We will be discussing the programming project as well as other topics.


Workload

As a rule, college classes require 1 – 3 hours of outside study for each class credit hour. This means this class will require 3 – 9 hours of outside work. Please remember this is only an estimate and your results will vary.

Because of the nature of software development, I would recommend you budget on the high side of this estimate.


Authorship

I encourage you to work with other students regarding course concepts. However, I expect all work submitted by you to be your own work.

Failure to comply with this rule will result in failure of the assignment for all concerned and withdrawal from the course with a grade of “Y” (withdraw failing).


Assignment / Program Submission

All assignments will be submitted in Canvas.

MS Word (preferred), RTF, or plain text for programming assignments are all acceptable.

Programs consisting of multiple files should be sent in a WinZip file.
