Piazza

To handle questions posed outside of class, we will be using Piazza. Piazza is a free online gathering place where students can ask, answer, and explore 24/7, under the guidance of their instructors. On the class dashboard, students can post questions and collaborate Wikipedia-style to edit responses to these questions. I as an instructor can also answer questions, endorse student answers, and edit or delete any posted content.

Instead of emailing me math questions, I encourage you to post them on Piazza.

Each student will be invited to join Piazza by email. Please join it as soon as you can. All announcements, homework assignments, solutions, etc. will be posted on Piazza, NOT this web page or Canvas (which I don't plan to use).

Homework

There will be regular homework assignments.

Each homework will have two parts:

1. Exercises from the lecture notes. You can collaborate on these and will not need to submit them. I will post detailed solutions to all of them. After you are done with these, you will do:

2. Exercises on Edfinity. They will be similar to but not exactly the same as the exercises from my lecture notes. These you have to complete on your own.

For details see Piazza.
