Each week you will need to take one or more quizzes (one for each chapter.) There is no
time limit on the quizzes, and you can take each one as many times as you like. The
highest grade you earn will be the grade recorded in the gradebook. The quiz for each
week will be available until 11:45 p.m. Saturday night.
Final Exam:
A comprehensive final exam will be taken at the end of the term. It will have a 2-hour
time limit, and it can only be taken once.
Attendance: Regular participation is expected. Students should complete all
assignments by the due dates.
Be sure to read my Lecture Notes for each chapter. They will be posted weekly in our
classroom.
