There will be four scheduled one-hour exams. The second exam will cover material from chapters 1 through 5. The third exam will cover material from chapters 1 through 7. The fourth exam will cover material from chapters 1 through 8 and 10 and 13. The meeting is to discuss your individual goals and how this physics course helps you to achieve those goals.
Homework is assigned according to the syllabus.
Homework will be due one week after it is assigned. Homework will be collected occasionally and a sample problem graded. Satisfactory completion of the homework and the announced quizzes will serve as a tie-breaker for borderline grades. The final exam provides a second opportunity to demonstrate knowledge in areas that were missed or weak in the earlier tests. The exam will be divided into 5 parts, each graded separately.
