Ethics

Students are expected to uphold high ethical standards in this course including adherence to Oregon State University Academic Regulations and Student Regulations. You are permitted and to a great extent encouraged to seek the advice of others. However, there is an obvious difference between a constructive discussion about a homework problem and copying homework.

Copying is not permitted. Any help/advice you receive must be fully documented so that you do not falsely represent yourself and your work. All material submitted for grade MUST contain complete documentation including a "references" section appended to the end of each submission. The following are some examples of how to properly document your work.

1) Using only the course text book, you complete a homework set.
References: None

2) You work with a group to complete a homework set.
References: I worked concurrently with Joe Smith, and Sam Brown on this homework set as part of a study group.

3) You are stuck on how to draw a timing diagram on a homework set and ask Joe Blow how he approached the problem.
References: Joe Blow explained how to set up the timing diagram on problem 1.

4) You cannot get your simulation to give correct results. You look at Sally's working code.
References: I looked at Sally's code to try and figure out what was going wrong.
