Class Meeting Schedule
Below you will find the course lesson, exam, and final exam schedule. The dates indicated in the
column to the right are required submission deadlines meant to encourage diligent practice and the
ongoing development of your algebra skills.
Two to five sections will be assigned for each weekly lesson. Each lesson consists of the in-class
lecture/notes followed by eText readings and homework in Pearson MyLab/Mastering
(MyMathLab). On occasion, a project may be assigned to accompany a lesson. Topics and
assignments for each week are due as assigned in the table below. Homework scores will be
available in MyMathLab. Projects and exams will be graded within one week.
If you are unable to submit an assessment on time, you are 1) still required to submit the
assessment as soon as possible, and 2) required to notify the instructor of your circumstances for
being late and to request more time.
