You are unlikely to learn the material in this course by reading the book and listening to the lecture alone. You will be practicing the analysis of data both in class and out. Homework and Classwork You will receive homework assignments throughout the course to guide your practice. You are absolutely free to work together in preparing answers to these assignments, but each individual should write up his or her answers alone. When you are asked to obtain data for an exercise, every person must do so individually, unless instructed otherwise.
Homework is to be turned in at the end of the class period.
Homework assignments will be checked in by the t.a., but not thoroughly graded. The solutions will be available on the webpage, and it will be your responsibility to check your solutions for correctness. In addition, we will from time to time have exercises or discussions in class in which you will be asked to collect, analyze, or interpret data. Sometimes the exercises will be completed and turned in during the class period. Other times, materials for class discussions and exercises will be provided in advance.
