General Information
Tentative Plan of Lectures
Lab
Each student will be enrolled in a Thursday Lab; A lab will provide opportunities for reviews, help on homework, team work, presentations, and projects. Cumulative scores from the lab will count toward your final grade.
Homework
Problems will be assigned weekly, and listed below. A random subset of problems from each assignment will be graded. Late homework cannot be accepted. Students may consult
one another and discuss homework problems, however the assignments you turn in must represent your own work.
Time and effort spent on homework is always reflected in exam scores.
