NJIT HONOR CODE

All Students should be aware that the Department of Mathematical Sciences takes the NJIT Honor code very seriously and enforces it strictly.  This means there must not be any forms of plagiarism, i.e., copying of homework, class projects, or lab assignments, or any form of cheating in quizzes and exams.  Under the Honor Code, students are obligated to report any such activities to the Instructor.

Please note that the University Drop Date November 3, 2008 deadline will be strictly enforced.

 

       Homework & Quiz Policy:  Calculus is learned by solving problems. It is therefore vital that you complete and turn in all the homework assignments on time. The homework assignments will be reviewed and returned to you. You can find the list of the required homework exercises for each lecture in the Course Outline section. You should also feel free to pursue other problems that are not contained in this set. Homework problems are due and will be collected at the beginning of the next lecture.

A short quiz based on the homework problems will be given during each lecture.  In addition, weekly quizzes will be given during the recitation sessions.  All of the quizzes will be graded and returned to you.  The homework and quizzes are intended to develop your problem-solving skills and to prepare you for the exams.
The homework and quiz grades will be a component of your course grade.

       Attendance:  Math 112 meets four times a week; there are three lectures and one recitation class. Recitation classes provide an additional opportunity for you to seek help with homework and concepts taught in class. Attendance at all classes (both lecture and recitation) will be recorded and is mandatory. Please make sure you read and fully understand the Department’s Attendance Policy. This policy will be strictly enforced. NOTE: Tardiness to class and/or recitation hour counts as a half absence. For additional details, please click here.

       MATLAB:  MATLAB is a mathematical software program that is used throughout the science and engineering curricula. Several MATLAB assignments will be given out. These assignments have been designed to help you learn how to use this software in order to visualize many of the concepts taught in class. MATLAB assignments will be graded and counted as a quiz.

       Exams:  There will be three common midterm exams during the semester and one common final exam during the final exam week. Midterm exams are held on Wednesdays on the following days:

Exam 1

September 24, 2008

4:15 – 5:40pm

5:45pm to 7:10pm

Exam 2

October 29, 2008

4:15 – 5:40pm

5:45pm to 7:10pm

Exam 3

November 19, 2008

4:15 – 5:40pm

5:45pm to 7:10pm

The time of the midterm exams is 4:15-5:40 pm for daytime students and 5:45-7:10 pm for evening students. The final exam will test your knowledge of all the course material taught in the entire course. The final exam will be scheduled during the exam period. Make sure you read and fully understand the department's Examination Policy.  This policy will be strictly enforced. Please note that calculators, cellular phones, beepers, and all other electronic devices may not be used during any exam.

       Makeup Exam Policy:  There will be NO makeup exams during the semester. In the event the Final Exam is not taken, under rare circumstances where the student has a legitimate reason for missing the final exam, a makeup exam will be administered by the math department. In any case the student must notify the Math Department Office and the Instructor that the exam will be missed and present written verifiable proof of the reason for missing the exam, e.g., a doctors note, police report, court notice, etc., clearly stating the date AND time of the mitigating problem.

       Further Assistance:  For further questions, students should contact their instructor. All instructors have regular office hours during the week. These office hours are listed at the link above by clicking on the Instructor’s name. Teaching Assistants are also available in the math learning center.

       Cellular Phones:  All cellular phones and beepers must be switched off during all class times.
