Collaboration Guidelines
Collaboration Guidelines
DelftX Courses
This
file
presents
the
guidelines
for
successful
collaboration
during
this
DelftX
course.
They
will
assist
you
and
your
peers
in
truly
grasping
the
course
material,
whilst
still
being
able
to
help
each
other
out.
We,
as
course
staff,
will
actively
remove
posts
and
responses
in
the
discussion
forum,
which
we
feel
are
inappropriate
(literally
giving
answers,
rather
than
giving
tips).
Repeated
violation
of
the
guidelines
may
result
in
your
progress
in
the
course
being
erased
and/or
your
account
being
deactivated.
(Please
remember
that
the
edX
Honor
code
also
applies
outside
of
edx.org)
Here
we
go:
1. It
is
OK
to
discuss
the
general
approach
to
solving
a
problem.
2. It
is
OK
to
work
with
others
to
come
up
with
the
general
steps
for
a
solution
3. It
is
OK
to
give/receive
hints
when
you
or
someone
else
is
stuck.
4. It
is
not
OK
to
receive
the
details
of
a
solution,
these
you
should
work
out
yourself.
5. It
is
not
OK
to
simply
copy
someone
else’s
solution
/
let
your
solution
be
copied.

is
not
OK
to
plug
your
numbers
in
someone
else’s
formula
to
get
an
answer.
7. It
is
not
OK
to
consult
a
step-‐by-‐step
solution
to
a
problem,
when
the
deadline
has
not
passed
yet.
8. It
is
not
OK
to
share/receive
the
answers
to
an
assignment
before
its
deadline.
9. It
is
OK
to
let
someone
help
you
one
step
further
in
a
solution,
provided
that
you
have
given
it
a
wholehearted
attempt
and
are
stuck
for
some
time.
