See a consultant in room ME 140 to establish an account if you do not already have one during the first week of classes. E-mail will be used on a regular basis in this course for communication between instructors and students. Reading and homework assignments are provided in the course syllabus. As basic preparation for each lecture, students should read the assigned section of the textbook before coming to class. The homework problems assigned from the textbook are illustrative of the general material and of problems found on exams.
Homework assignments are to be completed by the next class period after the assigned class period.
Unless announced otherwise, homework problems will be collected each week at the start of Wednesday s lecture. The two problems will be selected at random within each course division. No late homework will be accepted, unless you have your instructor s permission in advance. Solutions to all assigned problems will be posted on the bulletin board outside Room ME 161 and left for as long as space is available. A file of solutions for assignments up to the current one will be kept by the secretary in room ME 100.
