If an exam is missed, your total points possible will be adjusted accordingly. The schedule is flexible. Much material is required. It is not possible for an instructor to cover all the course material without student independent study. As students are interested in a particular topic or as test scores warrant review, more time will be spent on a chapter, or as may be required.
Homework serves as a focus of class discussion.
It is due at the first of class, normally within 30 seconds of the start of class. Please make and retain a photocopy of your homework for your participation in the class discussion. Your homework will be graded for effort, not for correctness.
