Grading

  Group Projects
These will be due every two weeks.  Each project will require 2-3 group meetings outside of class; it is recommended that you schedule these in advance.  All group reports must be typed.  LaTeX is recommended but other mathematical typesetting packages are acceptable.

Exams
On Fridays when group reports are NOT due there will be an in class quiz.  These quizzes will cover elementary material from lecture.  If you are following what is going on in lecture,  they should not be difficult.  If you are not following the lectures or group discussions come see me.

Final Exam
There will be a final exam.  The format of this exam is to be determined.  It will either be an in class exam or a take home modeling project.
