*then click on courses
*then click on score reports
*you will then be asked to enter your network ID and password to see your scores.

After you have been authenticated, a list of your grades will appear in the form similar to the following example:

C1|Doe Joe Robert JDOE|hw1:100/100 hw2:#/100 ex1:95/100 hw3:100/100 hw4:100/100 hw5:90/100 hw6:90/100 hw7:100/100 ex2:85/100 hw8:30**/100 hw9:95/100 hw10:100/100 average: 97.31/100=A+

A # symbol indicates a score that has not yet been entered. A * symbol indicates a score that has been dropped.

Dividing lines will be:

Exams: Approximate topics and dates of hour exams:

In case of illness or other legitimate excuse, a letter from your dean indicating that you are unable to take the exam at the designated date and time must be presented to the instructor. If you have a valid schedule conflict (say, your regular evening class/lab is at the same time as Math. 241 exam), you must see Professor Igor Nikolaev and bring a printout of your schedule with your name printed in your schedule. If you are excused by the dean of your college or, in case of a schedule conflict, by Professor Nikolaev, then you will be given make up exam. To schedule the make up exam you must see Professor Nikolaev.

Cheating: Please note that if you have with you during the exam, including the final exam, or quiz, calculator, notes, text books, your own scratch paper, etc. (not in your back pack), then it will be considered as cheating. Each instance of cheating (not limited to the above description) can result a warning, point deductions from the score for the written test (minimum 20pts, maximum 100pts), failure in the course and can be a cause for dismissal from the university. Please refer to the Academic Integrity in the Student Code for more information. Please note that

"The instructor may impose one or more of the following penalties for an infraction of academic integrity:
(1) a written notice of warning with a copy to the student's file in the office of the college in which the student is enrolled and to the Senate Committee on Student Discipline;
(2) a reduced grade on the assignment;
(3) a failing grade (zero if graded numerically) for the assignment;
(4) a reduced grade for the course;
(5) a failing grade for the course;
(6) a denial of credit for the proficiency exam; or
(7) any other penalty negotiated and agreed to, in writing, by both parties (not subject to appeal)

(d) The instructor may recommend to the department or unit executive officer (hereafter abbreviated DEO) that the student be suspended or dismissed from the University. Such a recommendation would be made in addition to penalties imposed by the instructor." (see Academic Integrity).

There will be make-up exams. You must have a legitimate, documentable excuse, to take a make up exam. You must let me know at least a week in advance about possible conflict (excluding cases when you are sick, then you email as soon as you can). Notice that oversleeping is not a legitimate excuse. If you missed the exam without a legitimate excuse, the score will be recorded as 0.

Home works: 

Final Exam: 8:00-11:00 AM, Tuesday, December 15; room: TBA. This time is unchangeable.
