Specific research project requirements are attached to the syllabus. There will be intermediate requirements prior to turning in the final project. This class will use the group format in addition to traditional presentation of homework solutions. Students will have an opportunity to be included on a phone-chain list, coordinated by the professor, in order to facilitate study groups and emergency snow closing notification. Class attendance is an important component of this course.
Students learn from one another as well as from the professor.
Promptness is also important because late arrivals are disruptive to the class as a whole. Attendance will be taken and excessive absences will affect your grade. For each absence over three, your final grade point average will be reduced one point. Late arrival counts as an absence. Preparation of all assignments before class.
