Capa "paper" assignment rules:

1. If you turn in a paper CAPA assignment, your entire grade for that assignment is determined by what you turn in on paper. Anything you enter on computer will not count, even if your computer-entered score is higher than your paper score..

2. For CAPA questions which ask for numerical answers that are deteremined from a formula, you must give an algebraic formula for the final answer using only the symbols defined in the question plus, possibly, known constant like g, 2, pi, etc. You must show your derivation of the formula and you must enclose the final algebraic answer in a box. The numerical answer is not needed for "paper" CAPA and will not be graded if you include them. Units are never required for algebraic answers.

3. For qualitative questions, like a set of true/false statments, you must write both down the statement and the answer for each statement given.

4. For graph interpretation questions, you must give a brief explanation of how you arrive at the correct answer. Usually, you should include a diagram of the graph and some marks on the graph showing how you get the answer.

5. Deadlines for paper CAPA are absolute. If you cannot make it to the physics building on the due date, turn in the assignment the day before.

6. Partial credit will rarely be awarded. If the grader is convinced that the error is due to a trivial slip (for instance, a sign error that appeared only in one place in the derivation because it was copied incorrectly from line to the next), then the grader may award partial credit. If the wrong answer is due to an algebraic mistake, zero credit will be given. If the algebraic answer contains a symbol that is not given in the question and is not a standard constant (like g, G, pi, etc.), zero credit will be given. No credit will be given if a full derivation of the final formula is not shown.
