http://faculty.washington.edu/rag/CLASSES/m124 is specific to my sections of Math 124: Sec BA,BB,BC
- Wed. and Thurs, 11AM-1PM (Jared Abwawo)
- Wed 1-2:30, Thurs, 1-4PM (David Ragozin)
- Stop me after class to arrange another a time if hours above are not possible. Please do no hesitate to see me. It is much better to raise questions as soon as they occur, rather than get farther behind.
- A worksheet with a sequence of guided discovery questions will form the basis for each Tuesday quiz section meeting, except on the midterm weeks (4th and 8th week). The worksheet is on line at the official class web site. Solutions to the worksheet will also be available at class site after the worksheet is due.
- Worksheets will be done in groups of 3 to 5(preferably 5). Each group will hand in one sheet with the names of all the people working in that group on that Tuesday. The submitted sheet should have each successive solution written by a different member of the group with cyclical reuse of members when there are more questions than group members. The member writing and the members watchingshould all attend to making the solution understandable, explanatory and as free from computational or algebraic mistakes as possible.
- Each person who works on the worksheet for the whole period will receive 2 points. Any person who works, but for less than 1/2 the period will receive 1 point. One worksheet session will be discarded from the point awards when calculating the worksheet contribution to your grade.
- Homework for each week is listed on the class web site . It is collected on the following Monday at the start of the lecture class. The homework for week 6, will be collected Tuesday, Feb 18 in quiz section, since Feb 17 is a holiday.)
- Do it! Solving the assigned problems is essential to learning the material. As an old Chinese proverb put it:
- Hand in your solutions by placing them in the pile for your section on the (lecture) table beforethe start of class.
- Answers, but not solutions, are available through the class web site .
- Seven homework sets will be graded and your best six will count toward your grade.
- Each homework will be worth 50 points: 10 points for each of 3 carefully graded problems (at least one of which will be from the non-Stewart problems) plus up to 20 points for showing solutions(not just answers) to the remaining, ungraded, problems.
| I hear, I forget; |
| I see, I remember; |
| I do, I understand! |
- There will be six half period quizzes given in Thursday sections on: Jan 9, 16, 23, Feb 6, 20 and Mar 6.
- Each quiz will be graded based on 10 points in total.
- Your best 5 quizzes will count toward your final grade.
- There will be two midterm exams and a final exam. A scientific calculator may be used on any exam. No graphing or symbolic calculators are allowed in exams. For each exam in class, you will be allowed one 8.5 by 11 sheets of handwritten notes (93.5 sq. in) but otherwise the exams will be closed book. Notes are something you produce yourself - not just copies of handouts, solutions from the web or copies of text pages; the act of writing or typing out notes serves as a review and reinforcement activity.
- You must provide solutions (see above under goals)to all exam problems.
