Discussion sections: (all sections meet on Tuesdays & Thursdays)
Test dates (Evening Exams): Final exam: Monday, Dec 12, 7:00-10:00 PM


Grading policy: The breakup will be: Homework - 12%, Quizzes/Worksheets - 8%, 3 Midterm Exams - 16% each, Final exam - 32%.

Homework: Homework must be completed on WebAssign. Homework will be assigned after each lecture, to be completed by the start of lecture two class periods later. For instance, homework assigned on Wednesday will be due on Monday. Late homeworks will not be accepted, but the lowest 4 scores will be dropped.
You will need a class key in order to enroll in WebAssign. When you create the account, it is crucial to use your official University of Illinois email address (i.e. netID@illinois.edu) as your account email so that your HW scores will be credited toward your grade. Go here for technical assistance with WebAssign.

Worksheets & Quizzes: There will periodically be quizzes given during discussion, but never during the week of an exam. These will be announced ahead of time in discussion. At other times, you may be given a worksheet to complete during discussion. Any absence will result in a score of 0, but the lowest 4 scores will be dropped.

Exam/Quiz policy: No use of notes or electronic devices of any kind (including calculators, smartphones, or ipods) will be permitted. Students will not be permitted to leave the room and reenter during an exam. Please plan accordingly.

Conflict Exams: If you have a conflict with one of the exam times, please consult the university policy on evening midterm exam and final exam conflicts. Based on that, if you think your situation qualifies you take the conflict exam, please contact me as soon as possible, but no later than a week before the exam in question.

Missed Exams: There will be no makeup exams. In the case of a valid, documented excuse, as outlined in the Student code, you will be excused from the exam. Documentation for excused absences must be obtained from the Emergency Dean and turned in to me within one week of the missed exam. Be aware that a note from the Emergency Dean does not guarantee that you will be excused from the exam.

Grading corrections: If you think there may be a grading error on one of your quizzes or exams, discuss it first with your TA or with the head TA. If that does not settle the matter, then explain the situation in writing, attach it to your exam paper, and give the paper to me in class or in my mailbox in 250 Altgeld. The deadline for all such requests is one week after the exam or quiz has been returned. Note: this means one week after your TA returned the paper, regardless of whether or not you were in class to receive it on that day.


Disabilities: Students with disabilities who require reasonable accommodations to participate in this class are asked to see me as soon as possible. In particular, any accommodations for exams must be arranged a week in advance and will require a letter from DRES.
