There will be 10 assignments, which collectively count for 16% of your grade.
Not turning in an assignment results in a 0, and not submitting 3 or more generally results in an F for the Assignments portion of your grade, which can pull your overall grade down by a full letter grade. Submitting them on time keeps you (and the whole class) on track, so make sure to mark the deadlines in your calendar. See the Grading page for more details.
Assignments are posted below in reverse chronological order…
