They  will assist you and your peers in truly grasping the course material, whilst still being  able to help each other out.  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.  6. It is not OK to plug your numbers in someone else’s formula to get an answer.  7. It is not 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.  And most important!  10. After you have collaborated with others to find a solution, you should be able to solve a similar problem by yourself the next time!
