We will be following the textbook closely. To succeed in the course you need to attend the lectures and then review the textbook promptly. You may discuss homework problems with your classmates but you MUST write up your solutions independently. Every student should do his or her own work. Timely work You should turn in your assignments in a timely fashion.
All assignments are due at the beginning of class on the due date.
Grading The grades for the undergraduate section and the graduate section will be determined separately. Then the student has to set up a meeting with the instructor to discuss about the proposal and get the instructor's approval for the proposed study. A final type-written study report is required and is due on April 18. The format of the report should follow that of a journal article and should include the title, an abstract, an introduction, the main content, the conclusion, and a list of references. Mid-term I will be held in class on February 21, 2001.
