General Information

TEXT: Watt, 3D Computer Graphics, third edition

 

INSTRUCTOR:

 

Prof. James K. Hahn
Office: 720B
E-mail:  hahn@gwu.edu

OFFICE HOURS: Mondays, Wednesdays 4:00-6:00

 

ASSIGNMENTS:  There will be approximately four programming assignments in addition to a term project. Late assignments will not be accepted. The assignments will demonstrate concepts learned in class. The assignments will be handed-in by posting to the class web page and by emailing the grader: jinge@gwu.edu

 

EXAMS:  A mid-term and a final

 

PROJECT:  : Each student completes an individual final project. This project should not necessarily be the most challenging (i.e. the final project is weighted the same as the other four assignments). The topic of the final project is entirely up to the student. You should discuss the project with the instructor.

 

GRADES:  Based on the following weighting:

 

             Assignments + Project     50%
             Mid-term exam        20%
             Final exam     30%

Grading is on a curve, modified to account for overall class quality.

 

MISSED EXAM:  By prior arrangement only, or due to an immediate personal emergency.

 

COOPERATION: It is reasonable for you to discuss approaches to problem solutions with each other. It is unreasonable to collaboratively work out a detailed solution, to copy a solution, or to give away a solution.
