Homework

Due dates:  The homework for each week's lectures is due in class on Tuesday of the following week.  (Example:  hwk on 3.6, 7.1, and 7.2 is due Aug 21).  I will accept late homework up to 4:00 Friday afternoon (2 points off).  I will not collect homework during finals week.

Format:

Use standard notebook paper.  Do not use spiral notebook paper unless you trim the ragged edge.

Start a new page for each lesson.

Put your name in the upper right corner of the page; do not write in the upper left corner.

Write clearly and organize your work neatly in one or two columns.

Leave at least one space between problems.

Staple your pages together in order in the upper left corner of the page.

Each question: Include:

  • A brief summary of the question.  Do not copy the text of word problems--summarize them.
  • Your work (or a statement of why you chose your answer).
  • The answer.
  • A check for accuracy (Optional, but important if you really want to learn)

 

Labs:  There will be five 10-point labs, including labs using Maple or Excel.  In addition, homework assignments will usually include graphing calculator and/or computer problems.

 

Chapter Tests

Preparation:  Understand the concepts and be able to solve the types of problems in the Study Guide on the web site, and in the Chapter Review in the textbook: 

Notes: You may use one 3x5 card of notes.

Work:  You must clearly show your work to explain/justify your answers.

Calculator: For most questions, you may not use a calculator except to check your work at the end of the test period.

Make-ups are available if you miss a chapter test due to an emergency.  You may make up one chapter test without penalty.  For each additional make-up, your score will be reduced by 10% (unless you make prior arrangements).  Deadline: within one week of the original test.

Location/Time of Make-ups:  Developmental Ed Office in Communications Building, 8AM to 3PM.  Make-ups may not be taken during the regular class period.

Lowest test:  Your lowest test will be replaced by your final exam percentage, if it helps your grade.

Final Exam:  The final exam is comprehensive.

 

Quizzes  will be scored at 2 points each.  These may add to the points available for the class.  There will be no make-ups.

 

Final Grade

Your final grade will be based on the points earned for the class, with the following exceptions:

1.  If you have a C (70%) or better on both the final exam and the homework, you will receive a C or better in the course.  2.  If you do not take the final exam, you will receive a D or F in the course.  3.  If both the final exam and the chapter tests are below 68%, you will receive a D or F in the course.

 

Attendance for the full class period is mandatory. I may count you absent if you arrive late or leave early.  If you wish to drop the class, that is your responsibility.  However, I may drop you for nonattendance.  Examples:  (1) absence for a full week of consecutive classes, (2) missing a test and not arranging for a make-up, or (3) missing a total of four or more class periods if you are failing the course.

 

Academic Honesty.  It is your responsibility to refrain from cheating in any form, and to refuse to aid or abet any form of academic dishonesty.  See the Merced College Academic Honesty Procedure (under "Civil Assurances" in the Schedule of Classes) for definitions and a partial list of possible disciplinary actions.  For a first offense, expect to receive a zero score for the particular assignment or exam;  for a repeated offense, expect a failing grade for the course and referral to the Office of Instruction (since serious or repeated offenses may result in suspension from the college).

 

Cell Phones and Pagers are disruptive.  Except for public safety (police, fire, paramedic), please make them silent.  Cell phones may not be used or on students' desks during any test.
