Ground Rules for Take-Home Tests

• While you are working on a Manifolds exam, you may not discuss anything about the Manifolds course with any of your classmates. Once you look at the exam problems, you are considered to be working on the exam. So finish any discussions of homework you want to have before opening the test.
• The only resources you may use during the exam are the text; the course website and Workspace; your course notes, homework, and any previous tests; and me. You also may talk with me or the TA about previous homework problems. No use of other resources - living, hard copy, or electronic - is allowed. Do be sure to ask me if what needs to be proved is unclear.
• Other than this restriction on resources, the guidelines are the same as for homework. This includes citing the results of previously assigned homework (including W problems) and the inclusion of 5 writing points in the total score.
• If you and a classmate have both turned in your test papers, you may discuss the test with each other. Please do not do so in a public area (e.g., the lounge or an office with an open door) until the day after the due date for the test.

The Midterm

The midterm is now available at the course Workspace, and will be due on Friday, November 13. You may turn it in to me in class, in my office, or in my mailbox in the lounge no later than 4 PM on the due date.
