Simply put, academic integrity is about respecting yourself and
respecting others. You respect yourself by submitting work completed through your
own effort; you respect others by acknowledging contribution from others when such
external contribution is allowed, e.g., for group projects. When your individual
effort is required, for exams and in-class quizzes, you may neither seek nor
accept help from others. You must read the complete
Code of Academic Integrity
as it applies to this course. Ignorance of the Code is not an acceptable excuse.

Upson B7 is a computer lab.
(UPS B7 is split in half; we will use the right half.) The first
two weeks and then every other week, discussion will take place in the lab
instead of the regular classrooms. A reminder of the
section location will be posted every Monday.

Required material:
Optional software:
MATLAB Student Version (2008 or later)
You must adhere to the
Code of Academic Integrity for all work.
Items that count towards your course grade include homework
(programming projects), section/lab exercises, quizzes,
and exams (prelims and final).
- CS1112 students are allowed to drop one project (e.g.,
you added the course late, you slept in and missed the deadline,
you submitted the wrong file, your partner forgot to submit
your joint work, your dog ate your hard disk, etc.).
CIS1121 students may not drop any projects.
- Discussion exercises are assigned and checked in section only.
CS1112 students may have two non-excused absences;
CIS1121 students may have one non-excused absence.
- In-class quizzes usually are done using clickers. For each question,
- earn one point for submitting an answer
- earn another point for getting the correct answer
You will get full credit (1% of course grade) if you earn half of
the maximum possible number of quiz points.
We will start counting the questions as quiz questions after the "Add deadline," end of week 3.
- CS1112 uses the following weights to determine the course grade:
| Exercises (E) |
= |
4% (discussion exercises) |
| Quizzes (Q) |
= |
1% (in lecture) |
| Projects (P) |
= |
25% |
| Prelim 1 (T1) |
= |
10% |
| Prelim 2 (T2) |
= |
15% |
| Prelim 3 (T3) |
= |
15% |
| Final (F) |
= |
30% |
CIS1121 uses the following weights to determine the course grade:
| Exercises (E) |
= |
9% (discussion exercises) |
| Quizzes (Q) |
= |
1% (in lecture) |
| Projects 1-3 (P) |
= |
30% |
| Prelim 1 (T1) |
= |
20% |
| Prelim 2 (T2) |
= |
40% |
Prelim 2 serves as the final exam of CIS1121.
Your course grade will follow the "cut-off" structure given below.
You need an overall score higher than 55 (out of 100) to get a "D" ("marginal pass").
Note that your College (or Major) may require a "C-" to be a passing grade.
We reserve the right to make adjustments both up and down based on our knowledge of
each student.
Overall score Letter
93-100 A-,A,A+
80-89 B-,B,B+
65-76 C-,C,C+
All homework and tests must be completed at their scheduled time unless
your request for special accommodation has been approved beforehand.
Any request for exam-taking accommodation
must be made at least two weeks before the exam,
with documentation from Student Disability Services.
If you have an illness that prevents you from completing required work, email the
course instructor as soon as possible to make an alternative arrangement for
submiting or making up the work.
You must write all exams at the scheduled times unless you have
another exam officially scheduled at the same time.
Topics and the course schedule are given below.
Selected lecture slides and example code
will be posted after each lecture.
These posted files are not complete transcripts of the lectures.
You are expected to attend lecture and to take notes for yourself.
