Homework Homework will be assigned in Canvas and graded in MyOpenMath. Student will access and

complete the homework on Canvas. Homework is not meant to be memorized. Problems

appearing on the exam should not be expected to come directly from the homework. Homework

assignments will have a due date, so students should pay close attention to both date and time. It

is the students’ responsibility to be aware of the schedule changes announced by the instructor.

Late homework assignments are not accepted for any reasons. MyOpenMath grades parts of

problems as all correct or all wrong. There is no partial credit on homework; however, students

have multiple chances to solve each problem. Completion of these homework assignments will

make up 24% of the course grade. There is no make-up for missed homework, for any reasons.

Worksheet Along with homework, worksheets will be assigned from various topics of the course. Students

will pay attention to the due dates and complete the worksheets on time. Students will need to

print the worksheets, work on them, and then upload a scanned pdf document on Canvas. Students

can ask for help from the TA or the course instructor to solve the worksheets. No late worksheets

will be accepted. Completion of worksheets will make up 5% of the course grade.

Help on Worksheet/Homework Assignments

To solve homework and worksheet problems, the students can ask for help the following way:

1. Student can join the online sessions offered by the course TA.

TA Hours

Kirsten Hernquist W3:30-5:00pm; F9-9:45am

2. Student can join the sessions offered by the course instructor.

illness, family emergency, military obligation, court-imposed legal obligations or participation in

University-approved activities, such as participating on an athletic or scholastic team, musical and

theatrical performances and debate activities. It is the students’ responsibility to give the instructor

notice prior to any missed work. Any student missing a test without an official excuse will receive

a zero grade. Any excusable absence must be documented by a verifiable source, and the instructor

must be notified AT LEAST THREE DAYS prior to the due date. Except in extraordinary

circumstances, all make-up tests must be taken before the next scheduled test. In an emergency

situation the student must inform the instructor about their missed work within 2 days of the due

date for the missed work. The student must provide university-approved documents within 2 days

of the due date for a missed work in order to be allowed to make-up the missed work. All make-

Attendance Policy Students are expected to attend all of their scheduled University classes and to satisfy all

academic objectives as outlined by the instructor. The effect of absences upon grades is

determined by the instructor, and the University reserves the right to deal at any time with

individual cases of non-attendance. Students are responsible for arranging to make up work

missed because of legitimate class absence, such as illness, family emergencies, military

obligation, court-imposed legal obligations or participation in University-approved activities.

Examples of University-approved reasons for absences include participating on an athletic or

scholastic team, musical and theatrical performances and debate activities. It is the student’s

responsibility to give the instructor notice prior to any anticipated absences and within a

reasonable amount of time after an unanticipated absence, ordinarily by the next scheduled class

meeting. Instructors must allow each student who is absent for a University-approved reason the

opportunity to make up work missed without any reduction in the student’s final course grade as

a direct result of such absence.

Recommend disciplinary action for students whose behavior may be judged as disruptive

under the Student Code of Conduct.

Counseling and Psychological Services (CAPS) Center Life as a university student can be challenging physically, mentally and emotionally. Students
