Grading
The grade you earn in this class will be based on homework, quizzes, in-class exams, and your
final exam. The grade breakdown is as follows:

Homework
Homework is to be checked/turned in at the beginning of class. As a general rule, I do not accept
late homework. You are expected to do every assignment in its entirety.
Examinations
You will have regular in-class tests and quizzes throughout the semester. In general, they will not
be cumulative and will be based on material recently covered in class. However, the final exam
will contain all the material covered during the entire semester.
Attendance and Lateness (in accordance with Math Department policy)
Attendance will be taken at the beginning of each class. You are late if you arrive in class after
your name is called. You are absent if you do not arrive during the first ten minutes of class.
You will be assigned a WU grade after a 6th unexcused absence.
In order for an absence to be excused, you need to email me on the same day with a legitimate
reason.
I strongly recommend you show up to class on time.
General advice
Get an early start. And do not fall behind in class. The material covered in the beginning is easier
than that covered towards the end, but the course builds on prior material, and the speed at which
I cover the topics will increase. So if you keep pace, you won’t have to worry about catching up.
I will give regular tests and homework so that you can keep track of how you are doing, but if
you are having trouble in the class or if there are circumstances I should be made aware of, it is
your responsibility to speak to me. If you don't tell me, I can't help you.

COURSE ASSESSMENT TOOLS
Please describe below all assessment tools that are used in the course.
You may also indicate the percentage that each assessment contributes to the final grade.
1. Class work (60%)
2. Final exam (40%)
DEPARTMENTAL LEARNING OUTCOMES
The mathematics department, in its varied courses, aims to teach students to
a. perform numeric and symbolic computations
b. construct and apply symbolic and graphical representations of functions
c. model real-life problems mathematically
d use technology appropriately to analyze mathematical problems
e. state (e1) and apply (e2) mathematical definitions and theorems
f. prove fundamental theorems
g. construct and present (generally in writing, but, occasionally, orally) a
rigorous mathematical argument.
Academic Integrity: The CCNY policy on academic integrity will be followed. (See the link to this policy on the
bottom of the home page of the CCNY website.) In regard to homework problems: Students are strongly encouraged
to work together, but should not simply copy someone else’s work. When homework problems are due, students will
be chosen at random to present their solutions to the class.
