The tests are tentatively scheduled for Thursday February 1, Thursday March 1, and Thursday April 19. Selected problems will be collected and graded each week. The homework will count 100 points, the same as one exam. I do not accept late homework. Instead, I will drop your lowest homework score at the end of the semester.
Homework is an essential component of the course.
I encourage you to discuss the homework problems with other students and with me, but you should write your own solutions. When you write up your homework use complete sentences, showing calculations and reasoning in a clear, logical order. Staple your homework pages together. It is the student s responsibility to keep informed of any announcements, syllabus adjustments, changes in exam times or policy changes made during scheduled classes. The total number of points available on tests and homework is 600.
