Handouts & Files
- Syllabus (.pdf)
The late-homework policy was updated on Sep 24,
2008 to the students advantage and to simplify the administration
of the course. You still have the opportunity to submit only two
(2) homework late without any explanation and without any
penalty. However, the delay has been extended from being Tuesday
noon to Tuesday 5:30 p.m. (i.e., right before the recitation). The
cover page should be submitted at the beginning of either the
class or the recitation.
Track your grade on this course by filling
your grades, available from Blackboard, in the blue-highlited cells
of the Excel file (.xls).
