Professor Pries, Section 001 | Wednesday, December 20th, 9 AM-Noon |
Homework: Although no homework will be collected, you are expected
to do all the homework problems. This is your main indicator of how well
you are absorbing the material, and it provides examples of types of questions
that will appear on exams. You should try the problems immediately after
the material is presented in class. Solutions are on reserve in the math library.
Grading: The course grades will be computed as follows.
Help: Help is available if you have trouble with homework
or lecture material. Your instructor's office
hours are the first place to start, but if you are unable to attend
them, you should go the Mathematics
Help Room (406 Mathematics) or
Barnard Mathematics
Help Room (333 Milbank Hall, on the Barnard campus)
. These rooms
are always staffed by at least one mathematics professor or graduate student
Monday through Friday during business hours. You may drop by whenever the
Help Room is open; no appointment is necessary.
Schedule of Lectures
This schedule is tentative and may be modified as the course progresses.
Please read the relevant textbook sections before the lecture.
