    Homework: Homework will be assigned, but not collected. However, many homework problems, with or without slight modifications, will appear in quizzes and tests (so will the examples that I work on in my lectures). Thus, it is absolutely imperative to work on each of the assigned problems.

    Missed tests: There will be no makeup tests/quizzes. If you miss a final exam without a valid excuse, a zero will be averaged into your grade.

    Grading: Class tests - 40%, final examination -35%, quizzes - 15%, Maple Lab homework - 10%. In computing your quiz average I will drop the lowest 3 grades. The homework and quizzes grades will only count if the weighted average grade on class tests and the final exam is 60 or above.
