IMPORTANT:
assignments represent INDIVIDUAL
pieces of work. However, I encourage students to work together in
groups to master techniques and materials relevant to the
assignments. Final writeups will however be necessarily
individual. Instances of plagiarism will be dealt with severely. Assignment 1: Lower Fraser Valley
