ALEKS Course Code: 9EGUF- RLWKV

Students are required to progress through the material according to the following schedule:

Topic Due Date
Arithmetic 09/07
Real Numbers 09/28
Linear Equations 10/19
Linear Functions 11/09
Polynomials 11/25
Rational Expressions 12/07
Quadratics 12/07

 A quiz will follow the completion of the Arithmetic, Real Numbers, Linear Functions, Polynomials, and Rational Expression sections during the next regularly scheduled class.  However, if the student finishes the material early, the quiz may be taken early.  Furthermore, if the student did not pass or wants to improve their grade, the quiz may be retaken the following class until the due date of the objective has expired.  All those students, regardless whether they have completed the material or not, and have not passed the quiz, must be present in class on the day following due date to take the quiz.  The student may bring a note card the size of a 3x5 index card.

The midterm exam will follow the Linear Equation section on Monday, October 20 and the final exam will be on Monday, December 8.  The student is required to be present in class for each exam.  The final exam will emphasize material covered since the midterm exam.  Please share these dates with your employer, if necessary, so they can plan on not requiring your services during those class periods.  The student may bring a note card the size of a 3x5 index card.

Immediately after the above due dates, the system advances the student to the next section even if the student has not completed it.  Therefore, it is imperative that the student progresses through the material at a pace that will guarantee they finish each section in the required time period.

Accelerated Study

A student who completes all of the material prior to the end of the course will be allowed to take the final exam at that time.  The course grade will be determined solely by the score on the exam.  If the student is satisfied with this grade, then this will be the final grade.  If the student is not satisfied, the student will have to restudy those sections missed on the exam before trying again.

Attendance

Daily attendance is encouraged, but not required.  An instructor will be present to help the student with any questions during regular class time.  Attendance is required for each in-class assessment.
