CIS with Maureen Greenbaum

;Maureen
If I ran a school, I'd give the average grade to the ones who gave me all the right answers,
for being good parrots.
I'd give the top grades to those who made a lot of mistakes and told me about them,
and then told me what they learned from them.

-- R. Buckminster Fuller

Finals Spring 2008

The last day of classes was May 6.

Finals will be in N35 (normal classroom) on the date/times as posted in the Nomahegan building:
 
bulletCIS100-007 official time is Tuesday, May 13 9:30 to noon

and
bulletCIS100-008 official time is Tuesday, May 13 12:30 to 3pm

Students who have to take the final are welcome to come to either. 
The exam looks like a combo of the quizzes.

 

Academic Integrity

I encourage students to help one another in this course.  Help means explaining the material.  It is a proven fact that the explainer learns more than the "explainee".  But all work/quizzes submitted MUST to the work of the student turning it it.  Students who violate these rules are subject to failure of the entire course or even suspension from UCC as documented in the student handbook and available online.

Education is knowing where to go to find out what you need to know;
and it's knowing how to use the information you get.
