COURSE REQUIREMENTS:

1. REQUIRED TEXTBOOK:

The Complete C++ Training Course, 3/e Harvey M. Deitel, Deitel & Associates, Inc. Paul J. Deitel, Deitel & Associates, Inc. Copyright 2001 Prentice Hall Computer Books ISBN 0-13-089563-6

2. DISKETTE:

Students need several 31/2 Double Sided, High Density diskettes. They are available in the bookstore and at many retail establishments. Be sure to ask for a high-density disk.

3. GRADING:

Grades are based upon total points possible. Course grade will be determined by the 
following scale.

        - 90% of total points = A
        - 80% of total points = B
        - 70% of total points = C
        - 60% of total points = D
        - Students selecting Credit/No Credit must earn at least 70% to receive Credit.

Total points will be weighted:

        - Homework & quizzes       10%
        - Labs                                 20%
        - Midterm Test                    30%
        - Final                                 40%
            Total                            100%

4. OBJECTIVES:

The student will:

• Master program documentation.
• Demonstrate a working knowledge of C++ language constructs.
• Present a fully documented project, using the C++ language for project completion.
• Master program documentation.
• Solve moderately complex problems.

5. ATTENDANCE:

Attendance will be taken each class meeting. It has been my observation that a student who attends class, generally speaking, will do better than one who does not. If you are absent, it is your responsibility to get what you missed.

6. LAB ASSIGNMENTS:

Approximately two hours of each class will be spent in lab. This is part of the class meeting and may be spent as a directed lab in which we walk through a lab assignment, or unstructured where you will be give  an assignment to work on. In lab periods have me verify the completion of the assignment either checking your work on the computer or by turning in a printout of the finished project. Lab assignments are not homework! Homework will be assigned in addition to the lab assignments.

7. HOME WORK:

Homework will be assigned for each lecture. It will be graded and will account for 10% of your grade. Assignments are due on the date indicated. Late homework will be not accepted.

8. TESTING PROCEDURES:

- Only pencil and black or blues colored pens are acceptable for writing on test papers.
- NO talking allowed during tests except with instructor.
- ANY appearance of cheating (such as, looking at someone else’s papers, computer screen, talking or passing notes) will be considered cheating and grounds for dismissal from the class with a grade F for the semester. The person helping as well as the person receiving help will be dropped from class.
- Once the test begins, I will write on the board the ending time. No matter what time you begin the test, all papers will be collected at the time written on the board.
- If you know you will be absent for the test (vacation, business/work, illness), you need to make arrangements with me BEFORE test is given.
- If you fail to turn in a test, and take it home, you will receive zero points for that test.
