Class Assignments

Disclaimer: This is a living document, which means it is always changing. Please make sure that you are regularly checking to see if any changes have been made.

 

Note: As with many college courses, students are expected to have read the material and done some work prior to class. This way they come prepared with questions about the material and are ready to discuss what is being taught. If the first time a student hears some of the formulas or vocabulary is during the lecture, they will become lost.

 

For each module, you will complete the reading and OYOs at home. We will go over the OYO, reviews and practice problems in class. Be prepared for a quiz over the reading and or vocabulary each week. Also, be prepared to have any at home assignment taken up for a grade. If you do not have the assignment, your grade will be a zero. No exceptions.

 

We will probably not finish the entire text before the end of the year but, we will get as far as we can. This will depend entirely on you, the student. Make sure you stay focused and are prepared for and during each class.
