Lecture Reading Assignments:

Lectures are intended to help you develop an understanding of material assigned from the textbook. To get the most out of lecture, one should always read the appropriate sections in the textbook before they are discussed in class. The lecture topics are shown in the calendar that appears later in this handout.

Lecture Homework Assignments:

Homework problems will be assigned from the textbook and from On-line Web Learning (OWL). The textbook problems will be for practice but may be similar to those on exams. There will be a total of 8 homework assignments. Details on how OWL will be used as homework assignments will be distributed separately at another time. Each set of homework will be worth 10 points for a total of 80 for the semester. Homework must be submitted on time for it to be counted.
