After the first week, homework assignments will be posted on Fridays, a week before they are due - you will have a weekly quiz based on the homework problems, lab work, and the concepts they test, at the start of class on Fridays. A subset of the weekly homework problems are underlined and bold-face, and you will hand in carefully written up solutions to this subset for grading, also at the start of class on Fridays. There will also be lab worksheets. Some of the problems on these worksheets will be from the homework due Friday. Other problems will be handed in separately, before the start of class on Wednesdays.
