| HOMEWORK Homework will not be collected, but it is essential that you do all of it. If you are having problems with a particular subject, you should work even more problems than are assigned.
| TESTS (1) Short (about 5 minutes) quizzes. (2) Laboratories using Maple. (3) Five one hour exams. (4) Comprehensive Final. (5) Two skills tests
| GRADING POLICY (1) The quizzes will count 100 points, and the lowest one will be dropped. (2) The laboratories count 100 points. (3) Each one hour exam counts 100 points. (4) The final counts 200 points. The lowest of the five one-hour exam grades will be dropped unless the final examination grade is lower than every one of the five one-hour exam grades. In this case the final will contibute only 100 points to your grade instead of 200. The two skills test will be administered on line. You will be allowed to take as many practice tests as you wish, and this can be done at home or anywhere with access to the internet. You will be allowed a few chances to take the test for credit and such tests will be conducted in a proctored situation. Although no credit is given for these tests, both must be passed or you will fail the course. If you pass both skills tests, you are assured of the grade given below if your percentage falls in the indicated range. Plus and minus grades will not be given.
| GRADING SCALE |
| Average | Grade | | 90 - 100%
| A | | 80 - 89%
| B | | 70 - 79%
| C | | 0 - 69%
| F | | NC POLICY If your grade average is less than 70%, you might be eligible to receive an NC grade instead of an F. You may receive an NC if you meet the following criteria: passage of both skills tests; regular attendance; taking most quizzes, all exams, and the final; and an overall average of at least 50%.
