Grading Policy

Your course grade is a weighted average of the following performance scores: homework (20%), midterm exam (35%) and final exam (45%).

Exams

There will be one midterm during the term. It is scheduled for Friday, Feb . The final is scheduled for Thursday, March 17 . All the exams will be in Deady 102. For each exam, you may bring two formula sheets, i.e., two 8.5 by 11 sheets of paper with whatever formulas and notes you would find useful.

Homework

Homework is due WEEKLY in class on Mondays. No homework will be accepted late. You may drop ONE homework. If a situation develops in which you need more than one homework dropped, such as a prolonged illness, you should notify me as soon as possible verbally and in writing. You may turn in homework early, of course, if you know in advance that you will have to miss class. Please do homework on 8.5 by 11 paper, folded once the long way. Put your name on the front, but don't write your student ID number on any homework paper.

Attendance:

You are responsible for all the announcements, changes, course information, and topics that I cover in class. If you miss a substantial number of lectures (more than 5) without discussing the matter with me and without a valid excuse, I may refuse to accept homework from you, late or on time, unless you have attended class.

  • If you cannot make my office hours, please feel free to stop by my office anytime.
