Submit Homework Assignments

Overview

This document describes how to submit your homework assignments. Our current technique is to use WebCT.

Before You Submit

  1. Check your answers to make sure you have all the required information.
  2. Create a README.txt file that includes the following information:
    • Your name
    • Assignment number
    • Number of hours you needed to complete the assignment
    • Name of each file followed by a brief description
    • Comments on the status of the assignment submitted
    • Any extra credit features you implemented

Example README.txt

Name: Jane User, Joe Partner
Asn#: 3
Hours: 9.7
Files:
- MyMain.java: The main file
- Console.java: User input methods
- README.txt: Meta information about the homework files.
Status: Completed
Extra Credit: None

Submission Instructions

Submit the files using WebCT. After logging in to WebCT, click the Assignments link and click the correct assignment number. Follow the instructions for uploading your files to the server.

Do NOT zip files or alter them from text in any way. Do not submit Word or Excel documents unless specifically allowed in the assignment instructions.

In Case of Difficulty

If WebCT is not available, or is giving you trouble, then contact the instructor for assistance. If the hour is late and your assignment is due early the next day, then email the instructor with a description of the problem and attach your assignment, with a copy to yourself. Also, bring your assignment to class in digital form so you can try to upload before class.

The instructor cannot post your grade unless you submit your assignment using WebCT. Thus, the instructor will work with you to get your assignment submitted through WebCT. However, the final responsibility for submitting assignments to WebCT on time rests with the student. Please plan ahead in case of difficulties.
