In this course you will be required to use a computer and the World Wide Web on a weekly basis. Students in Astronomy 1 have priority access to the IC computers. To identify you to the IC staff as an Astronomy 1 student, you will need a priority hour sticker. Be sure to bring a copy of your class schedule to prove that you are enrolled in Astronomy 1. However, only a few computers are available.
Assignments are to be handed in to designated boxes at the rear of the lecture hall.
Sorry, no late problem sets can be accepted. You are encouraged to work with your friends on the problem sets, but you must hand in your assignment in your own words and your own writing. The method you use to get the answer is as important as the answer itself. Problem set solutions will be made available on the Astronomy 1 homework web page. If you have questions about the grading of your problem sets and computer exercises, please refer them directly to the homework graders, NOT to the instructor.
