Homework policy:
Homework is an important part of this class.
In order to learn the material well, it is imperative to do all of it.
Homework must be written neatly and stapled together.
Late homework will not be accepted.
I will drop your lowest homework score.
The homework assignments are listed here.
Additional student resources:
Besides attending class, reading the text, and doing the assigned
homework problems, students can also attend my office hours for help,
can do additional problems from the book, and also attend the
Math Lab
(in MAP 113).
Please make use of all available resources!
