Spring 2019 Course Syllabi

Evaluation Homework – 20% Homework can be found under the homework tab in MyMathLab. You may work ahead, but each homework assignment should be completed by the time of the mid-chapter quiz. You will need to achieve 70% or more to proceed to the next section. You will have three tries to complete each homework problem, so use your thinking carefully as you proceed. Quizzes – 30% Mid chapter quizzes will be taken on paper in class unless otherwise stated. Missed quizzes must be made up within three business days. Tests – 50% There will be five exams throughout the semester. Your final exam may replace your lowest test score. Makeups must be requested within a week, will be a different version of the exam, and may be harder. Do your best to take the exams with the class, in order to be fair to all students and yourself. Based on North Dakota state policy, students must earn a grade of C or higher to be promoted to the next level of college mathematics. Letter grades are assigned using the following scale. A 89.5%-100% B 79.5-89.49% C 69.5%-79.49% D 59.5%-69.49% F 59.49% or lower Class Policies Attendance The sequential nature of mathematics makes it necessary for students to attend class and participate on a regular basis. Attendance is not mandatory, but be aware that your learning may suffer if you are not present. Assignments Students may work ahead in the homework, but make sure that you are at least complete to the level we are covering in class as it is very easy to fall behind in math.
