Important dates: Last day for automatic withdrawals is Wednesday, March 8. The common final exam for Math 212 is Monday, May 1 from 5-7 pm.

Grading Procedure and class policies: Homework is due daily in lecture. Assignments turned in at least half and hour before lecture but outside of class will also be accepted. Your six lowest scores will be dropped and no homework will be accepted late for any reason. There will be quizzes in your fourth hour recitation section as well as random pop quizzes in class. You will be allowed to drop 3 of each and there will be no make-ups. Allowing for six dropped homeworks, 3 dropped recitation quizzes, and 3 dropped pop quizzes should cover all extramural activities, illnesses, and other excused absences. The adjacent table gives the relative contribution of your exams, final exam, homework, and quizzes to your class grade.
 
Homework Format: Homework should be turned in on 8.5x11 inch notebook paper. The problems should be labeled and your work should be shown neatly. If the problem has a simple numerical answer, that answer should be given and boxed at the lower right of your work. With one exception, you have 5 problems per day that will be graded on a scale of 0-10. Each problem will receive 2 points if you have shown the necessary work and your answer is correct, 1 point if you have shown your work neatly and if you have made a minor mistake, and 0 points if you do not show adequate work that I can read or if you have a fundamental problem with the material.

Cheating: It is impossible to cheat on homework and quizzes. All homework and all quizzes are open text and you can talk to anyone about them at any time. All quizzes can be worked in groups and I encourage you to take advantage of this policy. If you are struggling, ask a neighbor, me, or your AI. If you are not struggling, be willing to explain your work to those around you. You can learn a lot more by not only being able to do the work yourself but being able to explain it to other people.

All exams are closed-book, closed-neighbor, closed-instructor, closed-AI, closed-calculator, closed-notes, etc... Cheating on an exam will not be tolerated. My policy for anyone caught cheating on any exam, including the final exam, is to award the culprit a "0" for that exam. All cheating offenses will be reported to the Dean of Students who may impose additional sanctions.

Resources: You should begin your homework as soon as possible after the lecture it is assigned. If you have difficulties, you have many resources available to help you. The department sponsors help sessions from 4:40-6:35 Monday through Thursday in SE 240 and I have office hours on Sunday in order to cover your needs for Monday's homework. Further, tutoring is available from Academic Services in the dorms in the evenings. Class time will generally be devoted to new material and not to answering questions about the homework.
