That’s right!
![Page 11: A Few Tips for the CS Freshmen](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081404/55942cf11a28ab0a1f8b45fb/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Keep it simple!
• (exact) same
• (new) invention
• (natural) instinct
• (originally) created
• (new) recruit
• (over) exaggerate

Command of English
• Adverbs weaken your writing, because these excess words are not adequately descriptive.
• The girl runs quickly vs. the girl sprints.
• The cat walks slowly vs. the cat tiptoes.
• The door didn't shut noisily vs. the door banged shut.

Do you manage your time?
• Keep a calendar.
• Be systematic: I even put a calendar event “Make a bad face to the gatekeeper of my apartment complex for not giving me the garage key”.
• Don’t count on your memory: Your memory will fail you.

Personally
• I think, in 2018, Istanbul Sehir University should be a place where no-one cheats …
![Page 16: A Few Tips for the CS Freshmen](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081404/55942cf11a28ab0a1f8b45fb/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Have you cheated before?
• I have seen and heard blunt acts of plagiarism. (FACT)
• In an exam, I would like to leave the class to themselves with a peace of mind. (TRUST)
• If you don’t trust me and if I don’t trust you, how can we cooperate for your personal growth?(EDUCATION)
• Do you see cheating as an act of play?

How can we cope with cheating?
• Dr. Ali Çakmak: lets change our assessment criteria and methods to force students into no-plagiarism.
• Dr. Mehmet Genç: We need a national propaganda for demeaning publicly any acts of plagiarism.
• Dr. Tarık Arıcı: Let’s study Behavioural Science for getting enough experience on how to cultivate positive behaviour.
• Dr. Ahmet Bulut: I will trust you.

The goal of education
![Page 19: A Few Tips for the CS Freshmen](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081404/55942cf11a28ab0a1f8b45fb/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Have empathy!
• During the course registrations, I get at least 10 emails per day from each one of the students that I advise.
• The number of students that are under my academic advisory is 88.
• 88 x 10 emails = 880 emails.
• (880 emails x 30 seconds) / 3600 = 7 hours.

Could you be a Talebe instead of a Student?• We are planning to teach you Structural Thinking.
