Mathematics, like sports, can only be learned by practice. You will be expected to spend 3-6hrs per week doing both. If you fail to do these, I believe there is little chance for you to pass this course. The lecture is not intended to supplant the text but to supplement the text.
Top students read the material and ask questions during class.
Students who do not ask questions will not have their questions answered. In this course new material will be presented daily. Students who turn in late assignments are penalizing themselves by not concentration on the current material under discussion. I therefore suggest students turn in assignments on the due date or at the latest at the next class period. Academic honesty is fundamental to the activities and principles of a university.
