Grading Policies:
|
| Homeworks can be worked on
collaboratively, but each
person must turn
in their own unique
writeup/analysis. Groupwork should be written up ApJ-style, with a title/abstract, sections describing introduction, methodology, results (and discussion thereof), and conclusions, and a properly formatted reference list. Groupwork should be written up collaboratively, with an explicit statement at the end describing how the work was divided up amongst the team. Graduate Students will typically have an extra problem or two on each homework set, will have more detailed group assignments, and will also have a project (paper & presentation) on a topic chosen in consultation with the instructor. Late HW policy: You get one free late (up to 1 week) homework. After that, it's a penalty of 20% for every day late. Late groupwork will not be accepted. |
