I expect you to maintain a high level of academic integrity in this course.
Please read FIU's Code of Academic Integrity.
You are allowed to consult other books in solving assignment problems, or to discuss the problems with other students, but you must do the assignments on your own.
For each assignment, you must upload the soft copy of the assignment through Canvas before the deadline and submit a printed copy of the assignment along with the signed originality declaration, in class on the due date.
I will grant incomplete only in extreme circumstances, such as medical emergencies with proper documentation.
I expect you to attend zoom sessions regularly and promptly, and to participate in discussions. Feel free to ask questions -- if something is unclear to you, it is probably unclear to others as well.
