Syllabus: Please peruse the syllabus for this course.

Office hours: I am in my office on MWF: 9-10, 11-12; MW: 1:30-2:30; TR: 9:30-11. If these times don't work, please schedule an appointment to meet with me.

Practice Homework: I expect everyone to complete all homework problems listed below. Please feel free to ask about homework questions at the beginning of class. If no one asks, I will assume everyone understands those problems. If there is not enough time in class to answer questions on the homework, please ask after class.

Online Material: The online homework and quizzes can be found through the Course Compass site.

Class Labs: You may use the following for assistance in these projects: the book, your group partners, your friendly professor, your class notes, Excel, and a graphing calculator. I will grade these projects guided by a Project Checklist. I encourage you to download this yourself and make sure that you can answer "yes" to all of the questions before you submit these projects. All due dates for projects (listed on the syllabus) are at the beginning of the appropriate class.

Office of Disability Services: Any student who feels s/he may need an accommodation based on the impact of a physical, psychological, medical, or learning disability should contact either Dr. Sally Scott (Office of Disability Services; 103 Graham; 395-2391) or me privately.
