Lab Policies:
- Lab Assignments 95%, Attendance 5%
- No late work is accepted except in the case of documented emergencies. The student has a maximum of one week to make up the missed work.
- Attending a lab section other than yours without prior notice and a legitimate reason will result in being counted absent for that lab. You must inform the lab instructor ahead of time if a switch is needed.
- Using the lab when another class is in session is prohibited. You may use the lab only during your lab time or the open lab hours, which will be posted on the lab doors. A lab monitor will be available to answer your questions.
- Prepare for labs in advance, be on time, and do not hesitate to ask for help or clarifications.
- Assignments are due typically a week after the date they were assigned. However, you will be required to complete a portion of the assignments during lab.
- Assignments should be completed satisfying ALL the requirements detailed in the handouts provided.
Academic Honesty and Responsible use of Computer Resources:
The University of South Carolina and the Department of Computer Science and Engineering take a strong stand against cheating. Anyone caught cheating will receive a grade of F and the incident will be reported to the Office of Academic Integrity, which may result in further disciplinary action. You are allowed to ask for help in the labs and on certain parts of the projects and homework. View USC's Rules of Academic Responsibility.
The University of South Carolina has a strong policy against computer abuse. Students are expected to act responsibly using computers. This includes obeying all applicable laws regarding copyright and harassment. View the Student Guidelines for Responsible Computing.
If you are having trouble with an assignment, PLEASE do not cheat. Your instructors are available during their office hours and through e-mail to assist you with any difficulties you may be facing. Although cheating may at times seem like a quick fix to what can appear to be a desperate situation, it never is. Cheating will only cause you more problems if you are caught.
Here are a few specific actions that are considered cheating in lab:
1. Sharing (giving and/or receiving) assignments with other students. Do not share copies of your files in any format (hard copy, electronic file, sharing USBs, etc.) with other students.
2. Looking over another student's shoulder in lab and copying their work
3. Having another student dictate to you what to write word for word
4. Although giving your account username/password to another students is not cheating in and of itself, it may lead to unauthorized copying of your documents, so don't do it
5. Since this class is intended to teach HTML/XHTML programming, use of an HTML editor that generates HTML automatically (e.g. MS Word, Frontpage, DreamWeaver, etc.) is considered cheating and will be treated accordingly
