It is your responsibility! ¨ Check announcements in lectures, newsgroups, or web pages n MPs will be done in Groups of 3 -4 students ¨ Start forming groups as soon as possible!! ¨ Recommend 3 in a group CS 414 - Spring 2012
Group Setup Process n Organize Groups among yourself between 1/18 and 1/23 ¨ Use n Email to TA Arefin (marefin 2@illinois. edu) your group formation by 1/23 ¨ n n newsgroup to find group partners If you cannot find a group, email immediately to the TA – email your request as well as skills you can bring to the table. TSG will setup accounts and directories for groups. Between 1/26 and 1/30 the TA (Shu) will inform each group their login and password to start to work on the Linux machines. CS 414 - Spring 2012
Peer Evaluation n Each group will submit at the end self-evaluation and evaluation of other group members By Friday 5/4 each peer submits ‘peer evaluation’ of his/her group n Evaluation will include n ¨ ¨ ¨ His/her own self-evaluation His/her evaluation of each group member for each MP Evaluation should include contribution of each member to each MP Evaluations will be sent to instructor only (klara@illinois. edu) Evaluations will be known only to the instructor, i. e. , will not be revealed neither to any other group members nor TA. CS 414 - Spring 2012
Peer Evaluation – form submitted to instructor at the end of the semester MP 1 MP 2 Self. Evaluation Group Member X Group Member Y Group Member Z CS 414 - Spring 2012 MP 3 MP 4
Re-grading policy Students have 1 week (after the grade for homework/MPs/exam is released into the gradebook) to request for re-grading n Re-grading requests need to be in writing to the TA n After the re-grading period, no re-grading request will be granted for this Homework/MP/exam. n CS 414 - Spring 2012
Cheating Policy n n n Academic integrity Exams must be your own – if cheating, then students will get a failing grade in the course. Homework must be your own - first offense 0 point, second offense F grade in the course Both the cheater and the student who aided the cheater will be held responsible for the cheating Machine problems will be graded per group, i. e. , each member gets the same number of points. CS 414 - Spring 2012
