Homework & Exams

All exams will be closed-book. No make-up exams will be granted, except approved in advance by myself or in the case of a legitimate unforeseen emergency.
Homework will be assigned approximately once a week. Please turn in your homework before class on the due date. No late homework will be accepted. Any assignment that exceeds one page in length must be stapled (not paper-clipped, not ripped and folded at the corners. Stapled.)
Students are expected to abide by the ASU Academic Integrity Policy on all work related to this course. Unless specifically stated, students must complete all written work independently. This includes but is not limited to exams, quizzes, lab reports, and any homework. The full text of ASU's Academic Integrity Policy is located online at http://www.asu.edu/studentlife/judicial/integrity.html
Tips:
- Pre-study relevant sections in the textbook before class.
- Attend all classes.
- Review class notes.
- Do your homework independently, and discuss extra problems in groups.
