Bonus Opportunity Problems (BOPs)
Note: I'm primarily assigning odd problems.
The answers are in the back of the textbook and worked out in the
solution manual (found in OWL on the left hand side) if you are having
problems.
Our SI leader works out BOP problems during SI sessions.
The solution manual is now included with OWL. You can also go on line
and buy yourself a copy. They are meant to be a little more challenging
than OWL and a bit closer to exam problems.
You MUST include all your
work for calculation problems, or I'll have to assume you just copied
the answers.
If you put just the answer down for a problem that you
couldn't do in your head, you will get a 1 for the entire assignment.
