Calculators
The following will be the only calculators allowed during exams:
 Casio: All fx-115 models. Any Casio calculator must contain fx-115 in its model name.
 Hewlett Packard: The HP 33s and HP 35s models, but no others.
 Texas Instruments: All TI-30X and TI-36X models. Any Texas Instruments calculator must
contain either TI-30X or TI-36X in its model name.
These are the same calculators that are currently being allowed in the Fundamental of Engineering (FE) and
Professional Engineering (PE) exams (http://ncees.org/exams/calculator-policy/). It is your responsibility to
get acquainted with the features of the calculator you decide to use.

Homework
Homework assignments are to be completed using the Pearson MasteringEngineering online homework
system (http://www.pearsonmylabandmastering.com/). Access to MasteringEngineering can be purchased
at the Bookstore as a textbox bundle or individual access card. Each assignment will take approximate
4+ hours to complete. Assignments are due on the specified due date by 7:30am. Late homework will not
be accepted. Students should keep a paper record of the solution to homework problems. A portion of the
HW grade will come from a single homework problem that will be collected in-class (on the specified
due date at 7:30am). Homework must be completed using the Exam Problem Structure and are graded
according to it.
COURSE ID: MESTEWART66606
Quiz
Quizzes are conducted every class using clickers. A clicker can be purchased at the UTEP Bookstore
(http://www.utepbookstore.com/). The 3 lowest quiz grades are dropped. Clicker must be registered
through the Turning Technologies Registration Tool on Blackboard. Failure to register your clicker will
result in you receive zero credit on ALL clicker based assignments. The clicker registration deadline is
September 2nd at 7:30am. There are NO deadline extensions.
Exams
Exam dates are listed in the course schedule; however, dates are subject to change. Any corrections will be
announced in class and via email. You will be allowed a one page, single sided formula sheet. No
solution to problems may be listed upon it. It must be stapled to your exam when you turn it in. Electronic
devices (e.g. laptops, tablets, cell phones, etc.) are not permitted. Hoodies must be down, hats must be
turned backwards. If there is evidence that you have cheated on an exam, the exam will be declared invalid,
and you will fail the course. To receive full credit on the exam the exam problem solution must conform
to the following structure:
Exam Problem Structure
1. Knowns/Unknowns: List the given parameters. List the parameters you must find.
2. Free Body Diagram: Draw a neat FBD that includes arrows with arrowheads, dimensions, and all
the parameters needed to solve the problem. (When appropriate).
3. Assumptions: List any assumptions made, and the equations you will need to solve the problem.
4. Steps: Give necessary details so that people can easily follow your calculations. Answers without
the steps will not be accepted.
5. Equations: label each equation with a number (1), (2), (3), etc.
6. Answer: Include units and box your final answers.
7. Neatness: Disorganized, incomplete, and/or copied work will be penalized.

Course Guide
In this course, students are required to watch lecture videos and complete readings before attending class.
During class, the instructor will lead students through the steps to solving several example problems.
Students will then be tasked with complete exercises that will be graded via clickers. Success in this
classroom environment will require that students prepare extensively before attending each lecture. Failure
to maintain attendance or prepare before class will severely hurt student performance. Before class students
should practices the examples given in the text and solve as many unassigned problems as possible. This
course should requires approximately 10 after-class hours each week. Students are encouraged to
comment on videos and make requests for the video solution to problems from the book.
Students must subscribe to the following YouTube channel
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCj6f8_XHXWlRQPSDYONM6-g
Attendance and Tardiness
Attendance is mandatory. Absences can be checked by the instructor through quizzes, exams, roll calling,
randomly picked names for problem solving in class, or other mechanisms. You could receive an F grade
if you miss more than three classes without the instructor’s consent. The instructor appreciates all efforts to
attend the class. Exams and quizzes are given at the beginning of the classes. No additional time will be
allowed for late attendees. If a student misses ANY assignment due to university related duty, serious
illness, or family emergency a makeup assignment may be arranged. Written proof must be provide along
with contact information for verification. The instructor MUST be notified of the absence PRIOR to the
absence. A message may be left with the Instructor 24/7 by phone or email.
Course Drop
It is the student’s responsibility to officially drop a course that s/he no longer wishes to take before the
course drop deadline. Failure to do so WILL result in a grade of “F” on the student’s academic record. If
you fall behind, do not give up and quit attending without dropping the course first. Athletes must receive
permission from the Miner Athletic Advising Center before dropping a course. International students with
F or J visas must receive permission from the Office of International Programs before dropping a course.
Study Aids
Instructor’s Office Hour
No appointment is needed during office hours. Visits outside office hours are welcome (if the door is
open); however, discussion time may be limited due to other commitments. Please make an appointment
(via phone call or email) for a full meeting.
Teaching Assistant
The TA will assist the instructor in grading homework, proctoring exams, and answering questions. There
will be TA’s office hours to answer your questions.

ACES and the Tutoring Center
Students are reminded of the tutoring services available in the ACES and the library. The University
provides these services to you. Check the schedules and make use of the services.
Policy on Cheating
Students are expected to be above reproach in all-scholastic activities. Students who engage in scholastic
dishonesty are subject to disciplinary penalties, including the possibility of failure in the course and
dismissal from the university. Scholastic dishonesty includes but is not limited to cheating, plagiarism,
collusion, the submission for credit of any work or materials that are attributable in whole or in part to
another person, taking an examination for another person, any act designed to give unfair advantage to a
student, or the attempt to commit such acts (Regents= Rules and Regulations, Part One, Chapter VI,
Section 3, Subsection 3.2, Subdivision 3.22). Scholastic dishonesty harms the individual, all students, and
the integrity of the university; policies on scholastic dishonesty will be strictly enforced.
