Collaboration• We encourage you to work together and learn from one
another• What you submit should be your own work• Acknowledge the contribution of others• The course policy handout lays out many examples:
– After working an assignment independently, you compare responses with another student which alerts you to an error in your own work which you then correct. You should state at the end of your submission that you corrected your error on the basis of checking responses with the other student. No credit will be lost if the response is correct, the acknowledgment is made, and no direct copying of the other response is involved.
