Bring your textbook and ACTIVITY BOOK PAGES TO CLASS DAILY. Bring your manipulative kit sets as needed. Calculators: NO CALCULATORS ARE ALLOWED ON QUIZZES AND EXAMS. Grading: Grades will be based on three evening exams (100 points each), quizzes (100 points), homework (50 points), and a comprehensive final exam (150 points). 360 of the 600 points (60%) is the lowest passing grade. Exams: The three exam dates are Tuesday, Sept 23rd at 6:30 in CL50; Thursday, Oct 23rd at 6:30 in LILY 1105; and Tuesday, Nov 18th at 6:30 in CL50. Put these dates on your calendar. Make-up exams will be given only if you have a valid excuse with documentation and the course coordinator has been notified prior to the exam. If you are unable to notify the coordinator prior to the exam, a valid explanation with documentation for the missed exam must be provided. Unexcused absence from an exam will result in a grade penalty. Homework: Homework is collected every day except possibly before exams. Neither early nor late homework will be accepted. Homework should be done neatly and with care, all steps must be shown, and multiple pages should be stapled. Correct answers without work or with incorrect work may not receive credit. The four lowest homework scores will be dropped at the end of the semester. Quizzes: A quiz will be given frequently. No make-up quizzes will be given, and quizzes will not be given early. The four lowest quiz scores will be dropped at the end of the semester. Important Dates: Last day to drop a course without it appearing on your record: Monday, September 8, 2008 Last day to drop a course: Tuesday, October 28, 2008 Attendance: Students are expected to attend every class meeting, and attendance will be recorded daily. Instructors, at their own discretion, may refuse to grade the homework or a quiz if you are absent for part of a class period. FOR STUDENTS CERTIFIED BY ODOS ADAPTIVE PROGRAMS: Students who have been certified by the Office of the Dean of Students-Adaptive Programs as eligible for academic adjustments should go to MATH 242 with a copy of their certification letter and request an Information Sheet for this semester, which explains how to proceed this semester to get these adjustments made in Mathematics courses. It is not the same as last semester. This should be
