This text is an online resource called zyBooks.Every class you will be expected to have a certain set of “participation and challengeactivities” completed before class starts (from zyBooks). It is automatically graded and Iwill transfer that grade to my gradebook in Moodle.During class you will have a chance to get help on any material previously assigned inzyBooks. I will also assign a set of problems to be completed in class. They may be azyLab (that comes with your zyBook) or it may be something I have created.Finally there will be several (approximately 5-7) larger coding projects that go with eachlanguage we cover.Self-instruction: You are allowed and encouraged to work together on the self-instruction materials. Youare not allowed to email/post/share your work, but you are encouraged to meet insmall groups and work through the material together.You are NOT permitted to share code or discuss the out-of-class projects with anyoneexcept me. If you are suspected of cheating, you will automatically fail this course.Grades: Zybooks – 20%­Class Assignments – 25% (may include quizzes)­Attendance – 15% (2 points each class, 2 present, 1 late or excused, 0 absent)­Projects – 40% (may include a project that must be completed in class)­                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       Attendance and Make Up Work: A substantial portion of in class time will be spent on coding activities. In the event ofsubstantial and documented extenuating circumstances, I will consider allowing amakeup. However, there are no guarantees.Required Online Learning Subscription 1. 	­ Sign in or create an account at learn.zybooks.com 2. 	­ Enter zyBook code:  UMTCSCI205DuceSpring2019  3.

Cheating:Cheating, as defined in the student code of conduct, will result in an automatic failure ofthe course, and may include all additional measures enumerated in the student code ofconduct.Student Outcomes:•	 Become proficient in the following programming languages: C, C++.•	 Understand the concepts and principles of programming languages and object-oriented programming.•	 Understand the principles and implementation of memory allocation anddeallocation, type checking, scope, polymorphism, inheritance.•	 Analyze a complex computing problem and to apply principles of computing andother relevant disciplines to identify solutions.•	 Design, implement, and evaluate a computing based solution to meet a givenset of computing requirements in the context of the program’s discipline.Late Drops: The University’s policy on drops after 45 days of instruction is very specific. TheComputer Science Department follows this policy rigorously. There are fivecircumstances under which a late drop might be approved: registration errors, accidentor illness, family emergency, change in work schedule, no assessment of performance inclass after this deadline. Except in very unusual circumstances, I will only approve latedrops if there is documented justification for one of these circumstances.Disabilities:This course is accessible to and usable by otherwise qualified students with disabilities.To request reasonable program modifications, please consult with the instructor.Disability Services for Students will assist the instructor and student in the modificationprocess.
