[253] Exam information - important, do not delete...

[Richard Smith <smith@sfu.ca>]

Dear 253,

I am sure you may not want to think about exams this morning, but  
here's a 'heads up' on the final exam:

* The exam is "take home" and will be distributed via WebCT and you  
will submit it through WebCT.

* Do NOT show up at the room/time on the printed exam schedule. Please.

* You will have (more than) a whole day to do the exam.

* I will post the exam on WebCT at 9:30am on the 18th of April.

* It will be due - no late submissions allowed - at 11:30am on the  
19th of April.

* It will be long answer (short essay), with choice allowed (i.e.,  
"do x of these y questions").

* It will be 2/5 from Wade Rowland, 3/5 from the lectures.

* You will be asked for integrating/reflective questions, not factual  
detail questions.

* You can use books, notes, eLive, whatever you like but NOT another  
person. This is to be your own work, done in private without help  
from friends, fellow students, etc. Do NOT copy answers from web  
sites or other material you find... this is to be your own work.

* Anything you cite needs to be properly referenced and quotations  
indicated. If you are unsure how to do this, refer to the citation  
guides on the library web site and take the "plagiarism tutorial"  
that is available on the library web site (there is a link inside our  
WebCT site). For the most part, however, you are not expected to be  
doing research for this - it is the kind of thing you *could* write  
in a 3 hr in class exam.

Good luck!
