Homework Policy

• The homework consists of written assignments, and WeBWorK assignments. Written assignments are to be submitted in class and will emphasize proofs. WeBWorK assignments will be submitted electronically. If you do not receive an e-mail assigning you a login name and password for WeBWorK, then you should contact your instructor via e-mail as soon as possible: Dorothy.Wallace@Dartmouth.EDU or Alexander.Shumakovitch@Dartmouth.EDU.
• Written assignments will be assigned once a week and cover all the material studied during that week. They are due on Friday next week at the end of your section's lecture.
• WeBWorK assignments will be assigned twice a week. Monday assignment will cover material for Monday and next Wednesday and will be due at 8AM next Monday. Friday assignment will cover material for that Friday and will be due at 8AM next Wednesday. Please note that WeBWorK will not record solutions of the assignments past the closing date. There will be appropriate adjustments for holidays.

The Honor Principle

• On Exams: No help given or received.

• On Homework: Collaboration is permitted and encouraged, but NO COPYING. Discussions of the general ideas of the class with instructors, tutors, fellow students and others are desirable. However, each student is expected to complete his or her assignments individually and independently.

• On Projects: Each project will have collaboration/honor principle information listed on the front of the project. Students are responsible for reading and following the guidelines for each project. Note that the guidelines may change from project to project.
