Homework

Homework will typically be due on Monday and Friday, at the beginning of class. Due dates are marked on the daily tentative calendar.

In RED BOLD are problems to hand-in. Any problems which are not in bold you are encouraged to do for practice/extra-study but do not turn them in.

Please note that I can't grade anything that I can't read--write legibly! Also, I can't assign a grade if I do not have a name--don't give me anonymous assignments!

Math is in many ways a social science. I strongly encourage you to talk to others in the class, or to me, about the homework. However, the work that you hand in should be in your own words and indicate your understanding of the problem. Calculators will not be required; if you have a calculator and want to use it, it should be a non-graphing calculator without memory capabilities.
