You may end up working 15 hours/week outside of class. Hence, this class is like a full-time job!Course Materials Book: James W. Nilsson and Susan A. Riedel, ”Electric Circuits”, 8th Ed. GET THE EDITION WITHOUT THE PSPICE SUPPLEMENT! DO NOT USE ANY OTHER EDITION. Online notes: You can find these on the EE100 homepage: http://inst.eecs.berkeley.edu/~ee100Check the Handouts link. Prelabs, lab guides and lab reports: You can find these on the EE100 homepage under Labs. Nonlinear problem set: Available on the EE100 homepage under Homework.

Chapters refer to your book, nonlinear notes can be found on the EE100 homepage. Check the Handouts link. Usually, you are not responsible for some sections from a chapter. If that is the case, I will inform you in class well in advance of the reading. Homeworks refer to end of the chapter problems. For the nonlinear problem set(s), check the course homepage. Homework should be READABLE by the reader(s). If they are not, we WILL NOT grade them. HOMEWORKS ARE DUE ON MONDAYS @ 2:00 PM IN THE HOMEWORK BOXES IN THE CORY LOUNGE (240 CORY). NO LATE HOMEWORK WILL BE ACCEPTED, NO EXCEPTIONS! Homeworks can be done in groups of upto 2 or 3 students. TURN IN INDIVIDUAL COPIES AND IDENTIFY YOUR PARTNER(S) IN EACH COPY. MAKE SURE YOUR NAME, SID AND LAB SECTION TIME ARE ALSO VISIBLE. There is no lab the first week of classes. EXCEPT FOR THE FIRST DISCUSSION SECTION (Monday, 9:00 AM - 11:00 AM), there IS discussion the first week of classes. For lab guides, prelabs and lab reports check Course Materials chapter.Syllabus and Lab Schedule(contd.)Resources Your fellow students are the most important resource! Me, the TAs. Course website: http://inst.eecs.berkeley.edu/~ee100 Newsgroup: http://groups.google.com/group/ucberkeleyclassee100su07REGISTER ON THE NEWSGROUP BY THE END OF THE FIRST LECTURE! There may be tutoring available via HKN (EECS honors society):http://hkn.eecs.berkeley.edu There is a website for the course textbook:http://cwx.prenhall.com/bookbind/pubbooks/nilsson2/However, it is not necessary to go through this site inside-out. It just serves as extra reference material.Enrollment Information Lecture attendance is optional. Waiting lists: should not be an issue? YOU MUST ATTEND YOUR LAB SECTION. You cannot switch out of lab sections because it creates a logistical nightmare for us. Make sure you are in groups of two. If there are an odd number of students, the TA may form group(s) of three. Please refrain from asking HW questions in lab, this is what the discussion sections and office hours are for. Discussion sections are optional, but I highly encourage attending them since the course moves very quickly and you may need all the help you can get.Policy on Cheating IF WE CATCH YOU CHEATING, YOU ARE SCREWED. I WILL GIVE YOU AN ‘F’ IN THE COURSE AND I WILL MAKE SURE YOU ARE THROWN YOU OUT OF THE UNIVERSITY!Exams and Grades Grading policy goals1: it should provide a reasonably accurate measure of your understanding the material. it should minimize competitiveness and grade pressure. it should minimize the time I spend arguing with you about your points. Grade breakdown: [99,100]:A+ [90,99): A [87,90): A- [83,87): B+ [80,83): B (I want the class average to be a B) [77,80): B- [73,77): C+ [70,73): C [67,70): C- [63,67): D+ [60,63): D [57,60): D- < 57: F The grading scale above means 89.999 is an A-. Also, THERE IS NO CURVE! Although I want the class average to be a B I will NOT curve down. If all of you get an A thatsawesome! However, if the class average ends up being a C because of an exam, then I will decide the exam is at fault and adjust your grades accordingly1.1Ref: CS61A Course Handout, Harvey, Brian.Exams and Grades(contd.)
