Homework Assignment Guidelines

Sourced from http://cmosedu.com/jbaker/courses/homework.txt

 

         Homework is due at the beginning of the lecture. Please don't work on your homework while the instructor is lecturing.

         Only use one side of a sheet of paper (8.5 by 11 inches).

         Please dont turn in thick book binders for your homeworks. The homework results must be presented in a clear yet concise manner with neatly organized simulation results.

         The homework problem number/statement/question should be placed before the solution Simulation results should always follow, and be integrated with, a problem's solution.

         Simulation results should never be tacked on to the end of the homework set (you will lose points!)

         A simulation plot should never occupy one whole page (place simulation results in a word document so they are oriented in the same direction as the hand calculations, that is, not landscape).

         When possible put a box around your answers.

         Reduce the size of the plots so, say, 4 or 6 plots could be placed on one sheet of paper. If you only have one plot for a problem's solution then place/write your hand calculations on the same sheet as the Spectre results (this plot) to minimize paper usage.

         Simulation results should always have either hand written or computer-generated indications (arrows, labels, comments, etc) on them so it's easy to see what's being shown (read this once again, using a pencil/pen and writing on the plot to indicate what's going on is encouraged!).

         Do not use one whole sheet of paper, a cover sheet, for your name and the homework number. These can be included on top of the page containing your first solution.
