You can not readily make up the material missed if you are absent. It is strongly recommended that you do not miss any of the classes. Students are responsible for all material covered in the course, regardless of their attendance. The only two days which you MUST attend classes are the days of student presentations.
Students are responsible for monitoring their own progress and understanding all homework problems.
The exam questions will be similar to the homework problems. A short quiz may be given at any time and may be unannounced. Each exam will be given in class. The dates for the exams are given on the accompanying schedule, but these dates are subject to change. Make-up exams will only be given in extreme cases.
