We encourage you to discuss homework problems with your classmates. This is one of the best ways to improve your understanding of the course. However, your solutions must be written up on your own. Collaboration during the write-up stage, or handing in homework that is almost identical to a classmate's, is cheating and may result in a score of zero for all your homework.

Homework should be neatly and clearly written, using complete sentences and correct grammar. You must show your method of solution. Corrections and strikeouts are acceptable if done neatly.

Homework should be handed in on time. Late homework will be graded only under unusual circumstances and only if arrangements have been made in advance.

Homework should be stapled.

The graders have the right to deduct marks for homework for not following these guidelines. In particular, homework which looks like scrap paper, which contains only answers and no method of solution, or which appears to have been written at the last minute or without reasonable care, will not receive full credit. In extreme cases, it may not be graded.
