It is your responsibility to know what is going on in class. </DD></DL> <P> <H3>Exams:</H3> <DL> <DD>Four exams will be given during the semester. The lowest of these four exam scores will be dropped. There will also be a 2-hour cumulative final exam. The tentative dates for the midterm exams are</dd> <DD> <b>Exam 1:</b> Chapters 10,11 - January 31, 2008 (Thursday)</dd> <dd><b>Exam 2:</b> Chapter 12 - February 21, 2008 (Thursday)</dd> <dd><b>Exam 3:</b> Chapter 13 - March 20, 2008 (Thursday)</dd> <dd><b>Exam 4:</b> Chapter 14 - April 10, 2008 (Thursday)</dd> <dd><b>Final Exam: All Chapters - Please check Final Exam Schedule for the date and time.</b></dd> </DL> <H3>Makeup Exams:</H3> <DL> <DD><i>No makeup exams</i> will be given unless two or more exams are missed, in which case valid excuses are required for <i>each</i> missed exam. If only one exam is missed, then no excuse is required; the missed exam will count as your dropped score. </DD></DL> <H3>Retaining Exams:</H3> <DL> <DD>You should keep all your returned exams until you receive your final grade. You will need these exams to demonstrate that a grade was incorrectly recorded, should that happen. Any unclaimed midterm exams will be kept until the next exam is given, after which they will be discarded. </DD></DL> <H3>Homework:</H3> <DL> <DD>Homework will be assigned but not collected. It is strongly advised that you do all of the assigned homework since the exam questions will closely resemble the homework problems. Success in most math classes requires spending at least 1 to 2 hours doing homework for every hour of lecture, so be prepared to devote from 8 to 12 hours per week of your time to this course. </dd></dl> <H3>Extra Credit:</H3> <DL> <DD>There will be no extra credit assignments available. </DD></DL> <H3>Course Grade:</H3> <DL> <DD>Midterm exams (3): 100 points each. Final exam: 150 points. </DD></DL> <H3>Final Grades:</H3> <DL> <DD>The university's +/- grading policy will be used in assigning final grades. If your overall percentage of total points falls into the following range, you will receive the corresponding grade:</dd> <dd>97-100 (A+), 93-96 (A), 90-92 (A-), 87-89 (B+), 83-86 (B), 80-82 (B-), </dd> <dd>77-79 (C+), 73-76 (C), 70-72 (C-), 67-69 (D+), 63-66 (D), 60-62 (D-), 0-59 (F).</dd> </DL> <H3>Calculator Usage:</H3> <dl> <dd>Graphing calculators will be allowed, but you cannot use a calculator with a built-in computer algebra system (e.g., TI-92) on any of the exams. Also, you may not use your cell phone as a calculator.</dd> </dl> <H3>Getting Help:</H3> <ul> <li>There is a Student Solutions Manual available as a companion to the text. It contains answers to all the odd-numbered problems. </li> <li>There is a Math Tutor Lab in PHY 107. The tentative hours of operation are MTWR 9:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. and F 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. The purpose of the lab is to answer generic questions on the course material. You may also ask questions about odd-numbered exercises. </li> <li>Arrange to meet your instructor outside of class. </li> </ul> <H3>Miscellaneous Policies:</H3> <ul> <li> Cheating will not be tolerated. The university policy on Academic Dishonesty is explained at the website <A href="http://www.ugs.usf.edu/catalogs/0708/adadap.htm ">http://www.ugs.usf.edu/catalogs/0708/adadap.htm</a>. </li> <li>Students who must miss a class period due to a major religious observance must notify the instructor of this absence, in writing, by Wednesday, January 9. </li> <li>Any student with a disability is encouraged to meet privately with the instructor during the first week of classes to discuss accommodations. The student must bring a current Memorandum of Accommodations from the Office of Student Disability Services (SVC 1133). This is a prerequisite for receiving accommodations. Exam accommodations through the Office of Student Disability Services require two weeks advance notice. All course handouts are available in alternate format if requested in the student's Memorandum of Accommodations. </li> <li><i>Please</i> do not hold conversations, either with your classmates or your cell phones, during the lecture sessions. (Cell phones must be turned off at all times.) </li>You are encouraged to take notes and may tape the lectures, but neither your notes nor your tapes are to be sold. <li>The last day to withdraw from this course and receive a tuition refund is Friday, January 11 (by 5:00 p.m.). </li>The last day to withdraw from this course and receive a grade of "W" is Friday, March 22. <li>S-U Policy: Students who want to take this course for a grade of S-U must sign the S-U contract no later than the end of the third week of classes. There will be no exceptions. For further information on S-U grades, please see the website <A href="http://www.ugs.usf.edu/catalogs/0708/gradetc.htm">http://www.ugs.usf.edu/catalogs/0708/gradetc.htm</a>. </li> <li>A grade of "I" indicates incomplete work and will only be assigned when most of the coursework has already been completed with a passing grade.
