2 30 Oct: Exam 2 01 Nov: Last day to drop course 25 Nov: Week of Thanksgiving break 13 Dec: Final Exam 8:00 10:00 AM Course Activities Class Attendance, Participation, and Decorum Students are expected to maintain a certain level of decorum, including: 1. Arriving to class on time 2. Turning off cell phones 3. Closing laptops during lectures and class discussions 4. Not sleeping during class 5. Not eating during class 6. Keeping side conversations to a minimum 7. Not leaving class until dismissed by the instructors Students who violate any or all of the above standards are subject to the loss of up to 10 points on their overall grade. In Class Quizzes There will be eight on line quizzes that cover material from the assigned textbook. These quizzes must be taken during the class period. Lab Exercises Learning to program requires hands on work at the computer, not just listening to lectures. Hence, we've designed a series of lab exercises that implement the concepts covered in the lectures. We start these labs during class so that the instructors are available to answer questions, clarify the requirements, or to help get you started. If you do not complete a lab during class hours, then you are expected to complete the assignment outside of class on or before the assigned due date. Late submissions will receive a reduced grade based on the lateness of the submission. Programming Homework This course activity involves preparing programs that implement specifications provided by the instructors. Each assignment is designed to use several concepts covered in the course. Students are expected to complete these assignments outside of class and submit them on or before their due date. Interim Examinations There will be two interim exams during the semester. Only authorized absences, with prior approval by the instructors, will be accepted for make up examinations. Exam will have a closed book section involving a set of questions and an open book problem solving section that requires students to write program for a given problem. Final Exam There will be a comprehensive two hour final exam. The format of the exam will be similar to the interim examinations. Honors Activities Writing Assignments There will be two to three assignments involving the computer and society where students will provide a report that analyze various sources for current trends, determine the different positions and provide a conclusion. Each assignment will have an in class discussion. s There will be two to three programming projects where students must develop a program based on a given requirement and specification. Students will then demonstrate their project to the class and explain their solution to the problem and the underlying idea behind it. Page 2 of 6

5 Course Student Learning Outcomes At the completion of this course the student will be able to: Course Student Learning Outcomes Write a program using an object oriented programming language Effectively use the various operators that are available in the programming language to evaluate complex expressions Effectively evaluate and use relational, Boolean, arithmetic, and compound conditional expressions Identify and resolve syntax, logical, and runtime errors using analytical and active debugging techniques Effectively use an integrated development environment and use online documentation Implement and take advantage of interrelated classes Effectively use control structures Understand and apply professional, ethical, legal, and social issues and responsibilities when developing solutions and writing programs How it ispracticed in this Course Writing Assignment Guided discussions during class periods How it is Assessed in this Course Writing Assignments Participation in class discussions Academic Conduct: Learning about programming is a hands on activity, not something that you can pick up by just reading a book or listening to a lecture. It is important that you do the work yourself to gain this experience. To that end, you may discuss programming concepts and techniques with others, consult the web or other textbooks, or study code that is available from various sources but the work you submit must be your own. Here are some examples of appropriate and inappropriate conduct: You need to insert an IF statement in your program and you can't remember whether or not parentheses are required. You ask a friend who says, yes, they are required. This is acceptable. You're running late on an assignment and in order to hand a program in on time, you copy ten lines of code from a classmate. This conduct is NOT ACCEPTABLE by either student. You must neither directly copy code from someone else nor offer your code to another student or allow it to be copied. After struggling for some time, you do a search on the internet and find a snippet of code that you adapt to your problem and insert into your program. You comment your code to acknowledge the source. This is acceptable. After struggling for some time, you do a search on the internet and find a program that does exactly what you need. You submit it as your own work. This conduct is NOT ACCEPTABLE. It is your responsibility to satisfy the spirit of this conduct. If you have any questions, please ask one of the instructors for clarification. Depending on the severity of the offense, the instructors may: Take no action Penalize the student on the assignment in question Assign the student a failing grade in the course Page 5 of 6
