CS 1A : Coursework

I will try to keep the following calendars as up-to-date as possible. Assignments not announced here will always be announced during lecture. If you miss lecture (or a part of lecture) be sure to get information on anything you may have missed from your colleagues including due dates or quiz & exam dates.

Calendar for 10000 - MW 1:20p-2:20p
Calendar for 10005 - TTh 9:00a-10:20a
Calendar for 10010 - TTh 10:30a-11:50a
Calendar for 10015 - W 6:00p-8:50p

Assignments will be posted here. Due dates will be discussed in class or posted on the calendar. Be sure to package your assignments properly. Assignments must include a cover sheet. If a cover is not provided please create your own as described in the syllabus for details). The "shrink wrap" is the online book.

Assignments should be completed in the CS labs. All necessary software is installed on the machines in the labs and the lab aides are there to help you if you have any questions. Check the learning center schedule for the semester so that you can schedule time in to complete the assignments on time.

Although I encourage all students to complete the assignments in lab, you may complete assignments at home provided you have the appropriate software. For programming assignments students are required to use the eclipse integrated development environment. Unfortunately, we are unable to provide technical support for the installation of any software. The unavailablility of required software on your computer will not serve as an excuse for late assignments.

Assignment #1	Word Processing in MS Word note: for this assignment you will need the section on Word for Geniuses in the online book.
Assignment #2	Spreadsheets in MS Excel note: for this assignment you will need the section on Spreadsheets for Geniuses in the online book.
Assignment #3	Programming Basics
Assignment #4	Selection & Repetition
Assignment #5	Basic Input & Output
Assignment #6	Nested If-Then-Else Statements
Assignment #7	Repetition

The lab assignments can be completed in the learning center and will be due at the end of class (unless otherwise specified in class). Late labs will not be accepted without the instructor's prior approval and at the instructor's discretion. The lowest lab grade will be dropped so you can miss one without being penalized.
Note: You should avoid waiting until the last minute to print lab assignments as the labs/printers may be busy just before an assignment is due.
