Math 112A Daily Schedule
Your job in this course is to go through all of the material in
the text , including the Study Problems appendix. The lectures, quiz sections,
and study sessions serve primarily to support you in the learning you will
do by working through the material. Thus, if you are to get anything from
lectures and quiz sections, you absolutely must keep up with your work.
Below is a schedule for the work you must do, along with all the tests
you will take. As the quarter progresses, I will add links to files containing
summaries of the lectures, past quizzes, and handouts.
Note:
As the quarter progresses, I will add links to additional material. To
read some of these links you will need a copy of the Adobe Acrobat Reader.
If the computer you're working on doesn't yet have Acrobat Reader,
you can download it by clicking on the icon at the right.
