Copying from any outside sources (e.g. Fellow students, and Internet, etc.) on any material to be graded is not permitted, and will be considered cheating. Cheating will result in failure of the assignment, failure of the class and/or face possible disciplinary action. Each student is responsible for securing his or her work from copying. Each student is expected to abide by college policies on academic conduct. 11. Due Date All assignments must be turned in the class on the due date for full credit. No assignment will be accepted after class on the due date. Since the group assignment is due in week 14, papers for this presentation should be submitted before one week of the 14th week. Failure of submission and presentation of the group assignment in week 14 will be awarded as zero out of 10 points. 12. Classroom Behavior Anything that disturbs your instructor or your colleagues during the class period is considered a troublesome behavior. Examples include: Using mobiles, PDA, making offensive remarks, sleeping, working on assignments related to other courses, etc. troublesome behaviors are completely prohibited. 13.
