■ Important announcements

1. NOTICE ON PLAGIARISM (抄襲的問題)

I have witnessed an increase in academic dishonesty nowadays. Students who are caught copying work without referencing it will receive an automatic grade of 0 points. Even if you paraphrase material (use your own words) you must still provide page number/author. I am very serious about this and will not negotiate with students who are caught copying work.
現今在學術上不誠實的情形增加了。被發現未註明引用資料即抄襲他人作品的學生,必然獲得零分。即使以自己的用語改述他人作品,仍必須提供作者及其出處頁數。我對此非常嚴格,而且一旦發現有抄襲著作情形,將無任何討論餘地。
2. I will not sign up any request for withdrawal from class; therefore, please evaluate your time and work before choosing this seminar.
3. All written work shall be submitted on the website NTU Cool. All announcements will be posted on the course website NTU Cool. Additionally, all information will be sent to NTU mailbox of all enrolled students. It is essential for students to check their NTU mailbox regularly.
4. Enrollment will be held irregularly. Poor presence will surely cast very negative impact upon the final grading. On the contrary, pro-active participation will contribute to final grading.
5. Please obey the university and college rules, no food and drinking is allowed in class.
