The homework for the class is just the Math 240 Core Problems list (see the link to the Math 240 homepage below). I will not collect homework, but will instead give (not that hard) quizzes at the end of every other lecture or so. There is plenty of material to cover, so we will need to move quickly, requiring up to several hours of work on your part each day. The breakdown for grading will be as follows: Quizzes will count for 35%, the first exam will count for 30%, and the final exam (NOT cumulative) will count for 30%. The lowest quiz grade will be dropped. If you are going to miss a quiz, please notify me in advance.
Starting the second week, quizzes will be on Tuesdays and Thursdays at the end of class.
Exam 1 is on Wednesday, July 24th. You are allowed one 8.5 x 11 cheat sheet (both sides if you wish). ANSWERS TO THE "SOME FUN PROBLEMS" CAN BE FOUND HERE.
The final exam will take place on Thursday, August 9th. You are allowed one 8.5 x 11 cheat sheet (both sides if you wish). SAMPLE FINAL QUESTIONS AND SOLUTIONS CAN BE FOUND HERE.
