Lectures MWF 11:00--11:50AM, ENGRG E203.
Requirements and other expectations
This may be one of the first non-calculus mathematics classes you
take. You'll find the rhythm and demands of this class significantly
different from those of the calculus sequence. Both in class and
outside it, you'll be expected to generate and explore patterns. As a
second step, you'll need to write down clear statements (and proofs!)
or your assertions.
- Homework 30% Homework will be assigned weekly, and due on
Fridays at the beginning of class. No late homework will ever be
accepted. Your work must be neat, and the pages stapled, in order
to be graded. While you are encouraged to work in groups, the
written work you hand in must be your own. On each assignment
indicate who, if anybody you consulted with.
- Midterm 30% There will be a midterm
on Wednesday,
October 8 October 10
in class. No makeup exam will be given.
- Final exam 40% The final exam will be on Wednesday, December 12,
11:50AM-1:50PM.
Again, no makeup exam will be given. You must pass
the exam in order to pass the course.
University expectations for class behavior in general, and academic
integrity in particular, are detailed
here.
