    Electronic Mail

    I will send various kinds of information by way of electronic mail addresses, and I will respond to questions from you sent by email. Please check your email frequently, and before working on an assignment, check whether I have sent out any changes.

    I will assume that when I send email out to the class, you have read it.

    Homework

    Assignments

    There will be weekly written assignments, generally available on the web on Thursday, and due at the beginning of class the following Thursday.

    Late Homework

    will not generally be accepted. Exceptions will be made only for exceptional extenuating circumstances (e.g. serious illness, family crisis). In all cases, exceptions must be discussed before the homework is due.

    Homework Policy

    The goal of the homework assignments is education, not evaluation. We must also be mindful of rules regarding academic honesty and plagarism. To facilitate these goals, we will use the following policy.

    Homework grading

    Each homework problem will be graded on the following scale: Note that this scale is not linear! A 4 does not correspond to 80% and a 3 does not correspon to 60%. Someone who gets a 4 on every homework problem and an A on each exam will receive an A in the course.

    Term Project

    The course will have a term project, due the last week of class. The project will be assigned around the middle of the term.

    Grading

    Academic Dishonesty

    I take academic integrity very seriously. I reserve the right to fail anyone for the entire semester based on any infractions. Ignorance of what consitutes dishonesty is not a defense. Please see me with any questions.

    Students with Disabilites

    I encourage students with disabilities, including invisible disabilities such as chronic diseases and learning disabilities, to discuss with me any appropriate accommodations that I might make on their behalf.
