Assignment Details:
All assignments are due by 9am on the due dates, unless otherwise specified. All assignments must be professional in appearance. Spelling, grammar and overall design will be considered in the grading process. Extensions will only be granted with appropriate documentation (e.g., a doctor's note) in advance of an assignment's due date. Late assignments will be assessed a penalty of 10% of the assignment value per day (i.e., if the assignment value is 30 marks the late penalty is 3 marks per day). Some late assignments will not be accepted (e.g., a presentation not given on the assigned day). Marks are raw scores that are totaled at the end of the course and converted to University of Alberta's letter grading scale.
Academic Integrity
The University of Alberta is committed to the highest standards of academic integrity and honesty. Students are expected to be familiar with these standards regarding academic honesty and to uphold the policies of the University in this respect. Students are particularly urged to familiarize themselves with the provisions of the Code of Student Behaviour (online at http://www.ualberta.ca/secretariat/appeals.htm) and avoid any behaviour which could potentially result in suspicions of cheating, plagiarism, misrepresentation of facts and/or participation in an offence. Academic dishonesty is a serious offence and can result in suspension or expulsion from the University.
