If you have a legitimate conflict with these exams dates and times, please contact your instructor as soon as possible.  Please do not wait until shortly before the exam.

Note. Exams will not be given early to accommodate travel plans.

Homework Policy

Homework will be assigned and completed electronically via the Webwork system. A username and password will be e-mailed to you at the start of the quarter. Assignments will open on each class day and will be due in approximately one week later. It is highly recommended that you begin each homework when it is set.

The homework scores not only count count towards your final grade and allow you to practice and refine your skills but, historically, those students who do the homework sets regularly fair better on the exams.

Grades

The course grade will be based upon the scores on the quizzes, the midterm exam, the final exam, and the homework.

Quizzes 50 points
Midterm exam 50 points
Final exam 100 points
Homework

Total 250 points

The Honor Principle

Private Tutoring

Tutor Clearinghouse may have private one-on-one tutors available for Math 8. The tutors are recruited on the basis that they have done well in the subject, and are trained by the Academic Skills Center. If a student receives financial aid, the College will pay for three hours of tutoring per week. If you would like to have a tutor, please go to 301 Collis and fill out an application as early in the term as possible.

Disabilities

Students with disabilities who will be taking this course and may need disability-related classroom accommodations are encouraged to make an appointment to see their instructor as soon as possible. (All discussions will remain confidential, although the Student Disabilities Coordinator may be consulted to verify the documentation of the disability.) Also, they should stop by the Academic Skills Center in Collis Center to register for support services.
