TAs will hold office hours NA Notes about Labs A complete set of administrative lab rules as well as specific technical instructions has been posted on “Course Information and Lab Rules” section of Blackboard. In particular, please read the “Lab Rules” document carefully; the rules will be strictly enforced. An excerpt of the most important items is listed below: 1. Each lab consists of a pre‐lab assignment, the lab work (i.e., the experiment and its measurements), and a final lab report. Each student’s complete pre‐lab assignment will be marked at the beginning 3
of the corresponding lab session. A student who has not attempted the pre‐lab assignment will not be allowed to perform the lab experiment, will be asked to leave the laboratory, and will receive ZERO on that lab. The lab work and results of each group will be assessed by the end of the corresponding lab session. A “TA Copy” of the results shall be submitted by each group prior to their departure from the laboratory. Refer to the corresponding “Lab Instructions” documents posted on Blackboard. 2. A pre‐lab assignment may require that each student simulate the lab circuits using a circuit‐
simulation software (e.g., Multisim or pSPICE). The required circuit simulation software comes with the textbook, but it is also available for students’ use in the lab rooms ENG406, ENG408, ENG409, ENG411, ENG412, ENG306, ENG307, and ENG308. 3. Subsequent to a lab, each group shall submit a formal (i.e., typed up and properly formatted) lab report directly to the TA in charge, at the start of the next new lab session. Lab reports that are handed in late will receive a penalty of 25% per day (including the weekends). Any report that has been slid under any professor's or TA's office door, or given to the front office, or delivered through any method other than direct submission to the TA will be given ZERO. 4. To be permitted to participate in the lab, each student must have his/her own lab kit. Students without the lab kit will be asked to leave the laboratory and receive ZERO on that particular lab. 5. The information about lab kit sale by the Department will be announced through Blackboard. However, if you wish to purchase the lab kit from a supplier of your choice, a complete list of components has been given in the “Lab Rules” document posted under the “Course Information and Lab Rules” section of Blackboard. 6. It is the students’ responsibility to access and print the corresponding lab instructions from Blackboard on a timely basis. The instructions are posted under the “Course Information and Lab Rules” section of Blackboard. Important Notes
1. All of the required course-specific written reports will be assessed not only on their technical/academic
merit, but also on the communication skills exhibited through these reports.
2. All assignment and lab/tutorial reports must have the standard cover page which can be completed and
printed from the Department website at www.ee.ryerson.ca. The cover page must be signed by the
student(s) prior to submission of the work. Submissions without the cover pages will not be accepted.
3. Should a student miss a mid-term test or equivalent (e.g. studio or presentation), with appropriate
documentation, a make-up will be scheduled as soon as possible in the same semester. Make-ups should
cover the same material as the original assessment but need not be of an identical format. Only if it is not
possible to schedule such a make-up may the weight of the missed work be placed on the final exam, or
another single assessment. This may not cause that exam or assessment to be worth more than 70% of the
student’s final grade. If a student misses a scheduled make-up test or exam, the grade may be distributed over
other course assessments even if that makes the grade on the final exam worth more than 70% of the final
grade in the course.
4. Students who miss a final exam for a verifiable reason and who cannot be given a make-up exam prior to the
submission of final course grades, must be given a grade of INC (as outlined in the Grading Promotion and
Academic Standing Policy) and a make-up exam (normally within 2 weeks of the beginning of the next
semester) that carries the same weight and measures the same knowledge, must be scheduled.
5. Medical or Compassionate documents for the missing of an exam must be submitted within 3 working days
of the exam. Students are responsible for notifying the instructor that they will be missing an exam as soon as
possible.
6. Requests for accommodation of specific religious or spiritual observance must be presented to the instructor
no later than two weeks prior to the conflict in question (in the case of final examinations within two weeks

of the release of the examination schedule). In extenuating circumstances this deadline may be extended. If
the dates are not known well in advance because they are linked to other conditions, requests should be
submitted as soon as possible in advance of the required observance. Given that timely requests will prevent
difficulties with arranging constructive accommodations, students are strongly encouraged to notify the
instructor of an observance accommodation issue within the first two weeks of classes.
The results of the first test or mid-term exam will be returned to students before the deadline to drop an
undergraduate course in good Academic Standing.
Students are required to adhere to all relevant University policies including:
Undergraduate Grading, Promotion and Academic Standing, http://www.ryerson.ca/senate/policies/pol46.pdf
Student Code of Academic Conduct, http://www.ryerson.ca/senate/policies/pol60.pdf
Student Code of Non-Academic Conduct, http://www.ryerson.ca/senate/policies/pol61.pdf

Est. of Stud. Email Accts for Official Univ. Commun., http://www.ryerson.ca/senate/policies/pol157.pdf
Students are required to obtain and maintain a Ryerson Matrix e-mail account for timely communications
between the instructor and the students.
Any changes in the course outline, test dates, marking or evaluation will be discussed in class prior to being
implemented.
In-class use of cellular telephones is not permitted. Please turn off your cell phone prior to class. Quiet use
of laptops, text-messengers and similar non-audible devices are permitted only in the rear rows of the class.
This restriction allows use of such devices by their users while limiting audible and visual distractions to
other students. This policy may change without notice.
Labs, projects handed in past the due date and time will not be accepted for marking and will receive a mark
of ZERO. In some genuine cases late submission will be allowed with a penalty of 5% per day.
Students found to have plagiarized any portion of their labs and final project will receive a grade of zero on
the complete project. This automatically will lead to a failing grade
