Comprehensive Final Exam
Class discussion Since the style
of the class sessions will be interactive, the student is expected to
come to the class with prepared questions, comments and/or application
examples. The student should try (through class discussions) to adapt
the computer concepts to his/her major field of study.
Programs The student will be assigned six programming
assignments, and he/she will construct and execute the solutions using Visual
Basic. The student is responsible for constructing a set of test-data, which
covers all of the possibilities inherent in that program assignment. The
student must submit the following materials for each program: a title,
description header for each program, a list of inputs, a program listing, and
an output list. Programs are graded upon degree of success, precise
implementation of the theoretic concepts, and use of appropriate program
structure. There will be a penalty for late submissions.
Honesty Policy It is expected that all students will
conduct themselves in an honest manner (see the CCSU Student Handbook), and
never claim work which is not their own. Violating this policy will result in a
substantial grade penalty, and could result in expulsion from the University.
However, students are allowed to discuss programming assignments with others
and receive debugging help from others.
Attendance It
is expected that the student will attend class sessions regularly. However,
recognizing individual differences, each student is responsible for his/her own
attendance and for making-up any missed study or work. Limited assistance will
be offered to those with plausible reasons for absences; unexcused absences
result in the student being totally responsible for make-up process.
Help with computers The University offers some student assistants who may be of value
in helping the students with computer function only, not with program writing.
Grades and evaluation The student will be evaluated regularly during the semester and
should be aware of his/her progress continuously during the semester. The Final
Grade for the course will be reported according to the stated University
policy. The basis for the Final Grade is shown below in its general form:
