  3. Assessment • Assessment • Written assignments 10% • Laboratories 5% • Programming project 10% • Quizzes during lectures 5% • Final Examination 70% • Passing requirement • at lest 30 marks in the final exam, AND at least 35 marks in overall • Attendance requirement • A student who has been absent without approval for more than 15% of the lectures shall receive an F grade.

  4. Remarks • Hard Deadlines • Late submission is not accepted • No deadline extension • Programming Project will be assessed by individual demo and Q&A • Plagiarism is forbidden • The student who copied program/assignments from others or who provided his/her program/assignments to others, will get an F grade in this subject. • Plagiarism will also be reported to our department for further action. • Lab discipline • You are not allowed to do anything unrelated to COMP2330. E.g., you cannot browse unrelated websites such as stock price, football match, etc. • Penalty: deducting 1 mark per time of violation • At most 5 marks of penalty
