We may have some ordinary homeworks and some projects. The procedures are somewhat different:

Homework Policy:
It is required that the homework submitted by each student be his/her own thoughts. Discussion with others about how to do the assignment is acceptable, indeed encouraged. However, the final writing up of the assignment should represent each student's understanding of the problem and should not be copied from another student.

You are strongly encouraged not to rely on solutions that can be found on the web, at least until you have thoroughly exhausted your own efforts, and those of your colleagues. And then you must reformulate the solution in your own words and ideas.

Project Policy:
Unlike ordinary homework, where though communication is encouraged, each individual is expected to work through all parts him/her-self, in a project it is acceptible for each member to have only read through and understood each part, without actually having worked through each part individually.

The project is to be written up consistently, coherently, and neatly, on a computer, preferably in TeX or LaTeX. Each member is responsible for proofreading before submission.
