Course Info

Textbooks: Do you really want to buy another $90 textbook? For this class, we're going to be using a combination of class notes and online resources. Not using a formal textbook, however, means that attendance will be incredibly important for this class!


Grading

Your grade for this course will come from two primiary components: the assignments/project and exams. The first two assignments are to be done by yourself, and the remaining assignments are to be done in teams. Assignments 3-6 are effectively the term project (building the processor and then the rest of the system to implement a simple video game). The weightings are given as follows:
  • Assignment 1: 5% (solo)
  • Assignment 2: 5% (solo)
  • Assignment 3: 10% (team)
  • Assignment 4: 10% (team)
  • Assignment 5: 10% (team)
  • Assignment 6: 20% (team)
  • Midterm: 10% (solo)
  • Check-Up Quiz: 5% (solo)
  • Final Exam: 25% (solo)
We will not explicitly be checking attendance. Note, however, that since we're not using a textbook for this course, I can assure you that there will be a very strong correlation between your attendance and your grades.


Collaboration, Cheating, etc.
