*solve, verify by PSPICE analysis and handed in 14 problems, only one
from each homework assignment
16.0 GRADING POLICY(PSPICE required)
16.1 WEEKLY QUIZZES STARTING THE THIRD WEEK
(9 QUIZZES WITH HIGHEST GRADES COUNTED) =56%
16.2 FINAL EXAM =30%
16.3 PSPICE PROBLEMS(1%/) DUE ONE WEEK AFTER PROBLEM =14%
ASSIGNED
----
TOTAL 100%
NOTE
16.6 QUIZZES, PSPICE PROBLEMS AND EXAMS ARE TO BE YOUR OWN WORK AS FOLLOWS:
YOU ARE TO NEITHER GIVE NOR RECEIVE ANY HELP DURING AN EXAM OR
QUIZ. YOU MAY POINT OUT HOW TO CORRECT ANOTHER STUDENT'S PSPICE PROBLEM, GIVEN THAT
THE STUDENT HAS TRIED THE PROBLEM.
ANY VIOLATION OF THIS WILL CAUSE THE STUDENT(S) INVOLVED TO
RECEIVE A FAILING GRADE FOR THE COURSE AND POSSIBLE EXPULSION FROM
THE COLLEGE.
