Students can submit Assignment 1 and Assignment 2 in a self-formed team of size 1 or 2 people.
Students submitting in a pair act as one unit:
- Both of the two students should fully understand all the answers in their submission
- Each student in the pair must understand the solution well enough in order to reconstruct it by him/herself
In the case of team submission, the assignment should include a brief statement about who contributed what.
- In most cases, students in the same team can expect to get the same mark for the team assignment

The video assignment is an individual assignment.

Each student are expected to upload a video talking about one topic from the assignments or labs, and the thinking behind it.
The length of the video should be between 4 to 8 minutes, with an under- and over- length penalty being 1 point per 10 seconds (or part thereof).
Grading scheme for the video assignment will be made available in advance of the due date.

Assignment submission that are late from 1 min to 24 hours attract a 5% penalty (of possible marks available).
Submissions late by more than 24 hours will not be accepted.
