Attendance Policy: Attendance at all classes will be recorded and is mandatory. Please make sure you read and fully understand the Math Department’s Attendance Policy. This policy will be strictly enforced. Students are expected to attend class. Each class is a learning experience that cannot be replicated through simply “getting the notes.”
Homework and Quiz Policy: The homework assignments are online. In order to do the assignments you need to have a student access code. You can get an access code with a new book purchase that is bundled with MyMathLab or by buying the code separately at the campus bookstore. If you buy a new book from another source make sure it is bundled with MyMathLab. In addition on the first day of class your course instructor will give you an additional code needed to access the homework assignments. A quiz based on the homework problems will be given each week online or in class. There will be a short quiz every week on the material covered during the previous week. All of the quizzes will be graded. The homework and quizzes are intended to develop your problem-solving skills and to prepare you for the exams. The quiz and homework grades will be a significant component of your course grade.
How to Get Started with MyMathLab:
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. Each MATLAB assignment will be graded and will be counted as a weekly quiz grade.
Exams: There will be two common midterm exams held during the semester and one comprehensive common final exam. Exams are held on the following days:
Common Midterm Exam I |
June 20, 2018 |
Common Midterm Exam II |
July 18, 2018 |
Final Exam |
August 6, 2018 |
Makeup Exam Policy: To properly report your absence from a midterm or final exam, please review and follow the required steps under the DMS Examination Policy found here:
Cellular Phones: All cellular phones and other electronic devices must be switched off during all class times.
