Expectations

Due Dates and Times
    Homework from Lay will be assigned weekly and is due at the beginning of class each Wednesday. Homework papers should be neat, organized, and clearly presented. Multiple pages should include your name at the top of each page and should be stapled together. If you write on both sides of the paper, make sure that the writing is not visible from the opposite side.

Structure
    Each assignment will be worth 25 points and will consist of both computational and theoretical problems. You may do extra even-numbered problems for extra credit. Though you may do as many extra problems as you desire, your total score on any given assignment is limited to 30 points. Computational problems are worth 1 point each (maximum 3 points per assignment) and theoretical problems are worth 2 points each. Any extra problems should be placed after the required problems and should be ordered by section.

Style
    Homework papers should be neat, organized, and clearly presented. 

    Unless a problem is purely computational, prose explanations of your work should always be included.  In fact, the explanation is the most important part of your response. Complete sentences should be used at all times.

Collaboration
    Collaboration on homework is expected and encouraged. There will be no reduction in score due to working with others provided the following guidelines are adhered to:

  • All students in the group understand the solution and are not merely copying solutions.
  • All collaboration is credited. This will generally take the form of a note at the end of a solution like “the solutions was compared with that of John Martin for verification” or “this solution was developed in collaboration with Jane Smith and Samantha Jones.”
  • Collaboration is encouraged, but you must do your own, independent write up. Mere copying of another's work is not acceptable.
