H. Freeman, New York.Prerequisites: Successful completion of Mathematics Diagnostics Test or Course 1 with grade ofC- or better.Class meetings: This course meets for lecture three days a week and for discussion section one daya week (four times total). I will conduct lectures on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Pleasefeel free to ask questions in lecture, though preferably none regarding homework problems.Please turn off all cell phones, pagers, and other electronic devices before the lecture.On Tuesdays or Thursdays your teaching assistant (TA) will lead a discussion section wherehe or she can answer any questions, and homework problems can be discussed. The TAs willalso help with those problems during their office hours.Questions concerning homework problems and the course material should first be addressedto the TAs, and then to me, if further clarification seems necessary. Questions concerninggrading should be primarily addressed to me, and not the TAs.Homework: Assigned every week, and collected during lecture on Friday (except on 02/25).Homework is due no later than five minutes after the beginning of the lecture.No late homework will be accepted.Due on Chapter, Section, Problem No.1 01/07 2.1: 1, 3, 14, 18, 21; 2.2: 1, 9, 20, 34, 42; 2.3: 6, 15, 24, 27; 2.4: 1, 14, 33, 53; 2.5: 10,24, 47; 2.6: 11, 13, 15, 412 01/14 3.1: 1, 27, 42, 48; 3.2: 14, 21, 53; 3.3: 2, 8; 3.4: 1, 18, 32; 3.5: 9, 283 01/21 3.6: 9, 32; 3.7: 3, 8,56, 59; 3.8: 10, 22, 32,41; 3.9: 5, 18, 24, 354 01/28 4.1: 1, 5, 18, 28, 36, 495 02/04 4.2: 1, 8, 12, 24, 35; 4.3: 2, 8, 11, 16, 26; 4.4: 2, 5, 12, 21, 326 02/11 4.5: 2, 9, 27, 42, 63; 4.6:1, 4, 10, 18, 45; 4.8: 16, 34, 37, 46, 577 02/18 5.1: 9, 25, 45, 54, 60, 70; 5.2: 6, 13, 30, 51, 69; 5.3: 8, 31, 36, 47; 5.4: 3, 14, 24, 308 03/04 5.5: 1, 8, 13, 17, 18; 5.6: 8, 16, 29, 63, 72, 74; 6.1: 1, 3, 12, 22, 32, 439 03/11 6.2: 1, 6, 9, 24, 56; 6.3: 6, 13, 19, 36, 49; 6.4: 4, 12, 19Your lowest homework score will be dropped when computing your grade. Homework willbe returned the following week in discussion section. The problems will range in difficultyfrom routine to more challenging. You may work together on the exercises, but any gradedassignment should represent your own work.Put the following information in the upper right hand corner of the first page:Your Name (first and last)Date, homework assignment numberTAs name, time and number of discussion section (1a–1f)On each additional page, put your name in the upper right-hand corner. Work single-sided,i.e., write on only one side of each sheet of paper. STAPLE homework that is more thanone page long. Remove all perforation before submitting. Write legibly. Label the chapter +section number as well as the problem number (e.g., 7.2 #2).Homework that fails to meet the above requirements will be marked “Unaccept-able” and returned unread.Exams: There will be midterm exams on Wednesday, January 26 and Friday, February 25, duringclass time. There will be a final exam on Wednesday, March 16, 11:30 am–2:30 pm, locationto be announced.No make up exams will be given under any circumstances.For each exam, you must bring a picture ID. No books, calculators, scratch paper or noteswill be allowed during exams.Disputing midterm grades: We put a lot of effort into grading your exams. If you feel that amistake was made in grading your midterm exam, you may request a re-grade. After eachmidterm is returned, a strict deadline will be posted on the web page until which a re-gradecan be requested. Be aware that a re-grade means that your exam will be graded from scratch,and it is entirely possible that you will receive a lower score than originally given, if I decidethat the original grade was too high.Final exams are kept for one quarter, stored for a second quarter to be picked up, and recycledsoon thereafter.Grading policy: Scores and final grades will be available on the MyUCLA gradebook. Your finalgrade will be based on the following:10% for homework, 25% for each midterm, 40% for final.Letter grades: Assigned according to the departmental guidelines for Math 31A. Letter gradeswill only be assigned for your final grade in this course.Academic dishonesty: Students are expected to be thoroughly familiar with the UCLA policy onacademic integrity. UCLA has instituted serious penalties for academic dishonesty. Copyingwork to be submitted for grade, or allowing your work to be submitted for grade to be copied,is considered academic dishonesty. Here, ‘copying’ does not only refer to producing verbatimcopies, but includes slightly adapting and submitting material originally due to someone else.Additional assistance: Besides the office hours (by the instructor and the TAs), additional helpis available Monday-Thursday, in the Student Math Center located in MS 3974, where un-dergraduate math majors as well as math graduate students will be able to help you.
