Policy and dates
- Policy on attendance Students are
required to attend all lectures. The penalty for unexcused absences
is:
-
| 2-3 absences: |
grade penalty |
| 4 absences: |
F on the course |
-
There will be unannounced quizzes. In addition to giving the student
the incentive to study on a continuous basis, they allow me to record
attendance. Missing a quiz, or failing to collect one, each counts as
an absence.
- Grading policy
-
| homework |
20% |
| quiz |
20% |

The score on the final will replace the lower score of the two partial
exams if the student is in good standing, meaning: satisfactory record
of class attendance (not more than 2 absences), and a score of at
least 50% on homework.
