Grading
There will be two midterms,
one final exam, homework assignments, worksheets and quizzes. The midterms are
25% each, the final is 30%, the homework assignments 10%, the worksheets 5% and
the quizzes are 5% of your total grade. Late homework is not accepted. There
are no make ups for quizzes or worksheets.
Calculator
Policy
On the exams and the quizzes
you can use a scientific calculator. It should be non-graphing and not
programmable. It should not have any calculus capabilities. Check for buttons
with d/dx and the integral sign. Those are not acceptable. I suggest you use
the same calculator when you do your homework assignments.
