CSE 151 Policies
Introduction to Artificial Intelligence

Grades

Grades will be determined by your performance on the two exams (midterm and final), nine written homework assignments and three programming assignments. Your single lowest written homework assignment score will not be taken into account. The following formula will be used:

written homework 30%
programming assignments 25%
midterm 20%
final 25%

Written Assignments

You must work independently on the written homework assignments. (See Academic Dishonesty, below).

Programming Assignments

You may work alone or in groups of up to three people on the programming assignments. Groups will turn in a single version of the code, but each member of the group must turn in their own written document explaining how the program works and answering any questions asked in the assignments. All programming assignments will be done in Lisp and the code turned in using the turnin utility. (Consult with the course TA if you are unfamiliar with the turnin utility.)

Late Homework Policy

Homework (including programming assignments) is due in class on the day given on the assignment. Late homework will be accepted up to two days (excluding Saturday and Sunday) late for 80% of your grade.

Examinations

Exams will be in-class, closed-book. You may bring a single sheet of notes (both sides) on 8.5 by 11 inch paper in your own handwriting.

Academic Dishonesty

We recognize that it is unrealistic to assume that you will not talk to other students in the course about homework problems, but it is considered plagarism to turn in uncredited work that is not your own. If you talk to other students about the problems, make sure that your write-up is your own. If you find the solution to a homework problem in a book or in the solutions to another problem set, the reference should be credited. Duplicate homework papers or problems will get a grade of 0. Since the tests will be based on the problem-solving skills learned doing the home-work, the more time and effort you choose to put into the homework, the better shape you will be in for the exams.

If you are found cheating on an exam you will receive a grade of 0 on the exam. Further action may be taken in accordance with the applicable UCSD rules on academic honesty.
