Course Policy: [go to top]
- Teaching and Learning Methodology:This course covers content through presentations and with supporting material. The instructor will share resources like code-scripts, tools, reading materials like research papers way ahead before the scheduled class.
- Academic Honesty: If A helps B in a Task X -> B doesn't get opportunity to do task X, B doesn't learn the skill to do task X, B gets spoilt-dependent-unfit for jobs requiring skills of task X, You may think it is okay to do it only once and not repeat it, But when a task is done once it gets wired into the brain as being "okay" and unless there is a strong reason it will repeat. If you want to help, help to learn!
- Zero Tolerance on Plagiarism:This course requires student to submit assignments, participate in in-class activities, give mid and final exams, work with groups on projects and so on. Any forms of cheating or plagiarism will result in a score of “0” for projects, assignments or exams. Egregious cases will result in a grade of “F” for the course.
- Absentee policy: You are expected to attend and participate in all lectures and lab sessions (graded or ungraded). However, if any quiz/activity is held during the lecture session that you are absent, you will be given a ‘0’ for the same. There will be NO make up classes/quizzes/activities. These rules are not meant to be demeaning or penalizing. They are stated to establish a clear understanding of the instructor expectations for student participation and demeanor in the classroom. These rules are meant to help/motivate you in achieving that success.
- Use of AI Tools: Students are free to use different AI tools like ChatGPT, Co-pilot, etc. for the course assignments/activities. However, please do mention what tools and how they have been used in the submission report. Remember the different demos given in the class on how sometimes these tools can mislead or provide wrong solutions. Its important to know the concept before using the tools. Tools are at the end-of-the day enablers. Today it will be ChatGPT tomorrow it will be something else but the concepts needs to be clear to leverage the different tools. Bottomline, feel free to use different tools but use them wisely!
- Submission Deadlines: Considering the class head-count is below 30, there will be NO extensions! for any graded task. It is your responsibility to submit an assignment or a task activity on a prescribed deadline. Please do not wait until last minute to submit your submission. If you couldn't submit any graded task due to health issues/attending a game/attending a conference/personal issue - please work with Dr. Vinay for exemptions.
- Grading Policy: Once a grade for certain course deliverable (class activity, assignments, MID, Final exam, etc.) is released, the students may request a re-evaluation (with appropriate reasons) of the grade up to a week after the grade has been posted. After that, the student may not discuss prior grades with the instructor (even if the instructors or TAs are at fault). There will be no makeup activity/test under any circumstances unless prior permission is granted. Late submissions will not be entertained unless there is a genuine health reason. Appropriate medical documentation will be needed in such cases - - please work with Dr. Vinay.
- Grading Distribution: The course instructor reserves the right to make minor modifications to the above distribution based on the progress of the courses. Below is the overall grade distribution.
| Deliverables | Weightage |
|---|
| Assignment (2) | 25% |
| Home Work (2) | 10% |
| MID(2) | 25% |
| FINAL EXAM(1) | 40% |
- Evaluation Rubric: All evaluations as part of this course follow below evaluation rubric. TAs will follow below guidelines for evaluating assignments and lab activities for this course.
| Rubric | Input(15%) | Logic(60%) | Output(15%) | Submission(10%) |
|---|
| Exceptional (100%) | All inputs are working as per the requirements | Logic is accurate and as per the requirements defined in the question | All outputs are returned as per the requirements | Script submissions are correct and as per requirements |
| Acceptable (70%) | Inputs are partially working as per the requirements | Logic is almost correct and as per the requirements defined in the question | Outputs are partially returned as per the requirements | Script submissions is partially correct and as per requirements |
| Beginning (30%) | At least one input is working as per the requirements | Logic is partially correct and as per the requirements defined in the question | At least one output is returned as per the requirement | Atleast one part of the script submission is correct and as per requirements |
