20 July 2011. The voting in today's class
suggests that 28-July Thursday at 1pm is the best possible time
for the extra class.
This extra class will be Q&A session and I will answer your
questions (No new subjects will be lectured).
If you cannot make at this time and want to learn about the topics
we discussed at the review you can visit in my office
hours (or other time by appointment).
08 July 2011. The Old
Exam Archive is a good source to practice for the midterm.
These exams can give you the idea
how the midterm is going to be. There are two points you need to
take into account about the old exams archive :
1- These midterms are designed for 50 min, our midterm will be 60
minutes (we have 1 more question).
2- Chapter numbers were different in previous years. You can check
the following page (prepared by Andrew Loveless)
for correspondence of chapters
:http://www.math.washington.edu/~aloveles/Math120Fall2010/ExamCorrespondence.html
05 July 2011. I'm sending solution sketches for
some problems in the book. I skipped some calculation steps. Each
solution takes several minutes but you don't need to listen the
audio part. If you click any point in the text it will forward
or rewind the audio to that part of the solution.

From: Patrick Perkins <pperkins@uw.edu>
The Math Study Center is a great place for students to
work on math, whether or not they need help.
We are not a tutoring center in the traditional sense. We provide
a comfortable place and a supportive
atmosphere for students to come together and study, in groups or
individually. We have on staff a number
of tutors (both graduate student TA's and advanced undergraduates)
who will sit down with students to help
them get unstuck or to answer questions.
We do not provide long blocks of uninterrupted one-on-one
tutoring.
Textbooks, calculators and other study materials are available to
be checked out for in-room use.
The Math Study Center provides services for students in Math
111/2, 120 and 124/5/6 only.
...
The Math Study Center is located in B-014
Communications. Our hours this Summer are
Mon - Thu : 10:50 am - 5:40 pm
We open Tuesday, June 21.
