As always, cheating will not be tolerated. It is important therefore that I clarify the "ground rules" of this examination. Please read these carefully.
1. | Naturally no help in answering the questions may be received from anyone (except yourself) during the examination. The work you hand in should be your own work. |
2. | Students may bring with them to the examination one (1) 3" x 5" card crammed as full as they care to make it of notes to use during the examination. You may use any abbreviations or diagrams on the card you find helpful (as well as English, of course). You may not use any unusual aids (e.g., magnifying glass, microfiche reader) during the examination to read the card. (Your usual spectacles and contact lenses are not "unusual aids.") No other books or notes may be used during the examination. Cell phones must be put away. |
3. | What appears on the note card you bring to class should be your own work. Each person should be the "author" of his or her own card. One exception: you may include quotations (but not photocopied) on your card from the textbook or from anything I have handed out or put up on the board during class. |
4. | Anyone who uses such a card must hand it in with the examination with her or his name clearly on it. (The card does not have to be legible otherwise--just so you can read it.) The card will not be used to help determine a grade for the examination. (So on the examination don't say "see point 6a on the card.") I will return these cards to you when I return your graded examination. |
