Supplemental Instruction: Our SI Leader is Heather Jenkins. She attends the lectures and then holds study sessions three nights a week to answer your questions on the lecture, to help you with homework, and to work additional problems.

 

Math Lab: The Math Lab is a free tutoring service for all 100-level math courses. No appointment is necessary. See http://www.math.sc.edu/mathlab.html for details.

 

Homework: A few homework problems will be assigned each class. Be sure to do these problems before the next class. Your solutions will not be collected. Quizzes will be based on homework problems.

 

Quizzes: There will be a five-minute quiz at the end of most of the lectures. Each quiz will be worth 12 points. Your best 15 scores will be chosen to constitute a quiz grade of a possible 180 points. There will be no makeup quizzes.

 

Maple Labs and Recitations: These are held by the Teaching Assistant. A total of up to 160 points will be awarded based on the completed assignments and the attendance. See the syllabus of the TA for details.

 

Exams: There will be three 75-minute exams announced well in advance of their date (tentative dates Feb. 13, Mar. 8, Apr. 12). Each exam will be worth 120 points. There will be no makeup exams.

 

Final exam: There will be a final exam worth 300 points on Wednesday, May 2 at 9:00 AM. All students must take the Final Exam.

 

Grading: You have a total of 1000 possible points: 180 points for the quiz grade, 160 points for the Maple assignments and attendance of recitations, 120 points for each of the three 75-minute exams, and 300 points for the Final Exam. Your final grade will be determined from these 1000 points as follows:
