General Education Learning Goals:

• Critical Thinking
• Communication
• Quantitative Reasoning

Homework: Each week 3 exercises will be assigned, and will be due on Wednesdays. You may collaborate with other students on the homework, but you must write up all solutions independently and on your own. Copying is not permitted and is a violation of the Honor Principle (see below for more information). Homework will be graded and returned with comments. For the following week, the exercises should be rewritten and submitted with a copy of the original work. In addition to normal exercises, there will be periodic assignments to summarize a particular course topic in the form of a podcast script.

Each homework problem will be graded on a scale of 0 to 3. You should not think of the grade you receive as representing a percentage but, rather, as delivering a message:

• 3 -- correct mathematics and well presented solution.
• 2 -- mostly correct, or correct mathematics but poorly presented.
• 1 -- needs more work.
• 0 -- didn't do the problem or completely wrong.

Both the original submission and the rewritten submission will count as part of the final grade.

Late homework will not be accepted.

Definition quizzes: At the instructor's discretion, there will be a short quiz requiring the statement of a definition of a term previously discussed in class. The quiz is closed notes and book and is due in the instructor's hand 5 minutes after class starts on a day in which a quiz is held. Quizzes will be graded according to the following scale:

• 2 Correct definition
• 1 Incorrect definition but quiz submitted
• 0 Absent or submitted late

The lowest score will be dropped at the end of the course.

LaTeX Bonus: Students who submit 9 or more of the written homework assignments prepared in LaTeX will receive a 1 point bonus to their final course grade at the end of the semester.

Grading: Final grades for the course are determined on the basis of performance on the homework, Definition quizzes, 2 Midterm Exams, and Final Exam weighted as follows:

• Homework: 20 points
• Definition quizzes: 10 points
• Midterm exams: 20 points each
• Final exam: 30 points
• LaTeX Bonus: 1 point

Total Points: 100+1

Resources for help:
Prof. Storm is the primary source for help with the course. Do not hesitate to ask questions in or out of class.

And please don't consider office hours to be a resource of last resort. I consider them to be a part of the course like any other, and many of my best students have been 'regulars' in office hours. There is much that I can do for you in a one-to-one situation that I simply cannot do in a group setting. You should take advantage of the fact that I am easily available to help you outside of class.

The office hours listed above are times in which I am guaranteed to be in my office to work with you. I also maintain an open door policy. You're welcome to come by my office at any time to see if I'm in. As long as I don't have something pressing, I will be happy to talk with you, even if it's not office hours. If I do have something that can't wait, I will let you know what time I'll be free.

In addition to seeing me in-person in my office, I check e-mail fairly frequently (particularly during the day). I will always respond to math questions that you send me (though I may respond with a question of my own or an observation or request for clarification). If you e-mail me in the evening, I may not be able to reply that night but will almost always reply the following morning. I definitely want to hear from you, so don't hesitate to contact me!

Academic Honor Principle:
On exams: No help is to be given or received.
On homework: No copying. You may seek help from anyone associated with the course, as much as you need. You may work with other students except on exams, but must always write up whatever you are working on on your own. Copying from someone else's work, including the sharing of electronic or other files, is not permitted and is a violation of the honor principle.

Students' Religious Observances: Some students may wish to take part in religious observances that occur during this academic term. If you have a religious observance that conflicts with your participation in the course, please meet with your instructor before the end of the second week of the term to discuss appropriate accommodations.

Disabilities: Students with disabilities are encouraged to speak with the professor about accommodations to produce an accessible learning environment.
