I will collect homework once a week in class. While most of the homework problems will be pencil and paper, some problems will also require the use of Maple. Late homework will not be accepted. However, the 2 lowest scores will be dropped. Hour exams are tentatively scheduled as listed above. The final will be comprehensive, and approximately 80% of the problems will be taken from the material covered in the midterms. Make-ups for tests will be given only when authorized in advance by the instructor. Only 90% of the make-up score will count.
