There will be no make-ups for midterm and final exam. If you had legitimate reasons that would prevent you from attending the midterm, you should ask instructor's permission in advance (at least 24 hours before the scheduled exam time) unless under unexpected situations such as accidents.

The instructor may also demand the group members to state their individual contributions to the project/assignment in order to determine a fair distribution of the grades.
RULE 3: Maintain class attendance. Class attendance is a vital part of the teaching and learning process. If our record showed that you had missed some lectures for no legitimate reasons, your whole grade will be deducted accordingly. Again, computers (including your own) can only be used for the tasks the instructor asks you to perform. No other work, e.g. homework assignments of this or other classes, is allowed during the lecture time. RULE 4: On time. Homework assignments, project proposals, and reports of final projects have to be handed in on time, as specified in the course
