Homeworks are issued
on Tuesdays and due back on the following Tuesday before 5:00 pm. The review
session held every Monday evening (8:00 pm, Room 111) addresses difficulties
students may have on homework problems or course material.
Homeworks are
not awarded specific grades, but rather evaluated according to either a
satisfactory or an incomplete performance. The homework is a learning exercise
only and it will only be factored into the final grade in unusual circumstances
or if the student’s grade is borderline. The evaluation of homework is based on
the following system:
ü+ (or 3) -
Most problems were completed satisfactorily, with only a few minor errors/computational
mistakes.
ü (or 2) - Most
problems were attempted or a few major mistakes were made on some of the
problems.
ü - (or 1) –
Some problems were attempted, but the homework was mostly incomplete.
The TA will
keep me informed on the progress and performance of all students with respect
to homework exercises.
