Homework Policy |
• | WeBWorK problems will be assigned
daily. They are due by 10am on the day of the next class
meeting. |
• | Written assignments will be
assigned weekly, posted to
the assignments page. They will be
due each Wednesday, turned into homework boxes in Kemeny, and they
will typically cover the material up through the previous
Friday. So the first written assignment (available on the
assignments page) covers the first three classes worth of material
and is due on Wednesday of week 2. There will also be a WeBWorK
assignment due that day; plan ahead.
|
• | Late homework will be accepted
only in case of serious, unpredictable events such as documented
illness or family emergency. Unexcused late and missing papers
count zero. Starting assignments early will ensure you have at
least some work to submit for grading. |
• | Consult the honor principle (below) as it applies to this course. |
Grades |
The course grade will be based upon the scores on the midterm
exam, homework, and the final exam as follows:
|
WeBWorK |
50 points |
Written Homework |
50 points |
Midterm Exams |
100 points (each) |
Final Exam |
150 points |
Total |
450 points |
If you have a conflict with one of the midterm exams because of a
religious observance, scheduled extracurricular activity such as a
game or performance [not practice], scheduled laboratory for another
course, or similar commitment, please see your instructor as soon as
possible. If you must miss a class, it is your responsibility to
submit all homework on time, and to arrange to get notes from a
classmate.
The Honor Principle |
Academic integrity is at the core of our mission as mathematicians and
educators, and we take it very seriously. We also believe in working
and learning together. |
On Homework: |
Collaboration is permitted and encouraged, but no copying ,
and to be clear, this means no copying even from a board or scrap of
paper on which a solution was hashed out
collaboratively. What a student turns in as a homework
solution is to be his or her own understanding of how to do the
problems. Students must state what sources they have consulted, with
whom they have collaborated, and from whom they have received
help. The solutions you submit must be written by you alone. Any
copying (electronic or otherwise) of another person's solutions, in
whole or in part, is a violation of the Academic Honor Code.
|
On Exams: |
Students may not receive assistance of
any kind from any source (living, published, electronic, etc), except
the professor, and may not give assistance to anyone. Matters of
clarification are to be left to the professor.
If you have any questions as to whether some action would be
acceptable under the Academic Honor Code, please speak to your instructor, and they
will be glad to help clarify things. It is always easier to ask
beforehand.
|
Tutorials |
Tutorial assistance for this course, that is, help with your homework,
will be available in 007 Kemeny, Sundays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays
evenings 7 - 9pm. Tutorials will begin on Tuesday, March 29. Your
tutor's name is Angelica Babei. |
Disabilities, Religious Observances, etc. |
We encourage any students with
disabilities, including "invisible" disabilities such as chronic
diseases and learning disabilities, to discuss appropriate
accommodations with me, which might help you with this class, either
after class or during office hours. Dartmouth College has an active
program to help students with disabilities, and I am happy to do
whatever I can to help out, as appropriate. |
Any student with a documented disability requiring academic
adjustments or accommodations is requested to speak with their instructor by the end
of the second week of the term. All discussions will remain
confidential, although the
Student Accessibility Services
may be consulted to
verify the documentation of the disability and advise on an
appropriate response to the need. It is important, however, that you
talk to us soon, so that we can make whatever arrangements might be
needed in a timely fashion. |
Some students may wish to take part in religious observances that
occur during this academic term. If you have a religious observance
that conflicts with your participation in the course, please meet with
your instructors before the end of the second week of the term to discuss
appropriate accommodations. |
