Academic Integrity - CSCI 531, Spring 2016 |
|
All homeworks must be solved and written independently, or you will
be penalized for cheating. The USC
Student Conduct Code prohibits
plagiarism.
All USC students are responsible for reading and following the
Student Conduct Code,
which appears on pp. 132-146 of the 2011-2012 SCampus.
In this course we encourage students to study together. This includes discussing general strategies to be used on individual assignments. However, all work submitted for the class is to be done individually. Some examples of what is not allowed by the conduct code: copying all or part of someone else's work (by hand or by looking at others' files, either secretly or if shown), and submitting it as your own; giving another student in the class a copy of your assignment solution; consulting with another student during an exam. Also, under no circumstances can you use code from previous semesters written by another student. If you have questions about what is allowed, please discuss it with the instructor. Students who violate University standards of academic integrity are subject to disciplinary sanctions, including failure in the course and suspension from the University. Since dishonesty in any form harms the individual, other students, and the University, policies on academic integrity will be strictly enforced. We expect you to familiarize yourself with the Academic Integrity guidelines found in the current SCampus. Violations of the Student Conduct Code will be filed with the Office of Student Conduct, and appropriate sanctions will be given.
