If two or more assignment submissions are found to be similar, all related grades for thisassignment will be 0; a second occurrence will result in an F grade for all related students.

In-Class: Most classes will have in-class activities, including e.g. problem solving or group work.Regular attendance and active participation may result in extra points, at Instructors discretion.
