Please see the course syllabus ( http://www.math.uiuc.edu/~kmortens/344/syllabus.html ) for information about what will be covered on each exam. Tests will include a variety of types of questions, with a few (but certainly not all) questions directly from homework problems. The final exam will cover material from the entire course.
Problem sets:
Problem sets will be due every class day. You can
find the problem sets assigned so far at http://www.math.uiuc.edu/~kmortens/344/homework.html
.
You
may work with others on the problem sets if you wish. However, each
person should write up the solutions on their own; to do otherwise will
be considered plagiarism.
Problem sets will be graded and returned to you and will count as part of your course grade.
I normally do not accept late problem sets. If you cannot turn in a problem set on time due to some very unusual circumstances. please contact me as soon as possible.
Office hours: I am happy to meet with you in my office to discuss course material. During my regular office hours, you can just drop in without an appointment. I can also meet you at other times - please make an appointment to do so. I am normally on campus between 9:00 and 3:00 every weekday, until 5:00 some weekdays.
I am glad to discuss homework problems with you during office hours. However, I will expect you to have made a good effort to do the problem ahead of time and to bring your scratch work with you.
Calculators: Calculators may be used on problem sets and exams, although you should be sure to show enough of your work to demonstrate that you understand the procedure.
Course grade: Your course grade will be determined
as follows:
Exam #1
15%
Exam #2
15%
Exam #3
15%
Final Exam 30%
Homework 25%
