Grading

Grading policy is summarized in the following table.

What?	When?	How Much?
Quizzes	each Thursday	25%
Exam 1	Monday, September 25th	15%
Exam 2	Monday, October 23	15%
Exam 3	Wednesday, November 29th	15%
Final exam	Wednesday, December 13th, 1:30-4:30pm	30%

Homework:

There will be homework assigned each Wednesday.
The homework will not be graded, but see "Quizzes", below.
Working in groups is permitted.

Quizzes:

At the end of class each Thursday, there will be a quiz.
Some, if not all, of the quiz will consist of problems assigned as homework.
There will be no make-up quizzes offered; however, the three lowest quiz grades will be dropped.
Grades will be given primarily for a clear explanation of the work involved in the solution, and only secondarily for correctness of the answer.

Exams:

There will be no make-up exams except in extraordinary circumstances and by permission of the Emergency Dean.
Exams will take places during the normal class time. Please arrive 5-10 minutes early. Take an exam from the proctor and sit in the seat indicated on the front of the exam.
No calculators, cell phones, or ear phones/buds of any kind are permitted; use of any of the above will result in a 0 for the exam.

General Comments about Discussion Sessions:

Discussion sessions will usually be devoted to answering questions about the homework, but there will also be topics introduced in discussion session which we do not have time to cover in class.
You must of course attend discussion session to take the quizzes. I recommend that you attend all discussion sessions even when there is no quiz.

The most common question so far has been, "Am I in the correct calculus course?" The math department has provided a webpage to help you decide whether you should take Math 220, 221 or 231. If you are still in doubt, ask your Diana Armstrong who can be found on the third floor of Altgeld Hall in room 313.
