This course requires a graphing calculator. Any brand is acceptable, but we recommend TI-85 which we will use in class. No late homework will be graded. The TI-85 does not have a printer so graphs will need to be copied from the calculator screen.
Homework needs to be legible to be graded.
Consider using graph paper. To be successful in this course, or any math course, you must do lots of problems. You will not succeed if you don't do the homework, and that means not just the hand-in problems. To keep you honest on the homework that doesn't get graded, I call on people in class to put problems from the homework on the board. This classroom participation counts toward your grade.
