Attendance

Attendance is considered mandatory.
Attendance will be taken at the beginning of each class. If you are late, it is your responsibility to have your attendance properly recorded.
If you have a documented legitimate reason for missing class, see the instructor for getting credit for the class you missed.
Please, do not ask for credit for a particular class at a later date.

Homework

Homework assignments will be done using MyMathLab.
The homework assignment for a section will become available on the day the section is discussed in class. You will have approximately one week to finish the assignment. For instance, if a section is completed on Monday, you will be required to finish the homework for that assignment by midnight of the following Sunday.
Once the assignment becomes available and until it is due, you can work on the assignment until it is finished to your satisfaction. Once the assignment is due, the assignment can no longer be accessed.
The homework assignments are clearly indicated in the MyMathLab calendar.
You should plan to spend 2-3 for each class period reading the lesson, studying your notes, and doing the assigned homework.

Quizzes

There will be frequent unannounced quizzes throughout the course.
The quiz will consist of three to five problems from the recent homework assignments and problems that were discussed in class.
