Individual effort is necessary for one to develop the expertise to cope successfully with quizzes and examinations. Homework will not be graded, but will be noted as completed and reviewed for class comprehension. Exams will be open, closed, or open and closed book. Open book permits the student to use as reference material class notes, homework and laboratory reports, which have been prepared by that student, as well as the assigned textbooks. No other reference material is permitted.
Closed book prohibits the use of any reference material, or texts.
Collaboration on exams is forbidden. Short quizzes will be given almost weekly. They may be announced, unannounced, and open or closed book. Calculator policy for each exam will be announced prior to the exam. In the event that major projects are assigned, they will be due on the date announced by the instructor.
