Grading Policy
Your course grade is the sum of following performance scores: The homeworks will count as 15% of the course grade; The in-class quizzes will also count as 15%; The midterms will count as 20%; and the final exam will count as 50%.
Quizzes: Usually Tuesday's classes will take the form of a problem session, followed (most weeks) by a short quiz. Sometimes a quiz may not be arranged on Tuesday. There will be five or six open-book quizzes. Your lowest quiz score will be dropped. Remaining quiz scores will be averaged and contributed to the course grade. There is no make-up quiz.
Homework: Homework questions are posted in the following Tentative Syllabus of this web page which will be updated very often. Homework is due weekly at the Firday's lecture. No homework is accepted late. It is your responsibility to check the updated Tentative Syllabus each day before you start to do your homework. One lowest homework scores will be dropped and the remaining homework scores will be averaged and contributed to the course grade. You can discuss with other students while working on your homework problems, but copying other students' answers is not allowed, otherwise a penalty of score deduction may be given. Your solution to each homework problem should be legible and should describe your ideas clearly. No details will have no scores. Please use 8.5" by 11" sheets to do your homework and don't forget to write down your first name, and last name (In order to protect your rights to confidentiality of your papers, don't write down your ID number on homework paper.) on each page. Your homework will be returned in the return boxes by your paper marker. Please find your return box and pick up your homeworks promptly. Poor attendance may alter this policy; see "Attendance" below.
Exam: There are two midterms and one final exam. For each exam, you can bring a 8.5" by 11" sheet with formulae or useful notes for you. Your solution to each exam problem should be legible and describe your ideas clearly. No details will have no scores. The times of the midterm and final exams are specified and can't be changed. There is no make-up exams.
Attendance: Attendance is mandatory. Your attendance
will
be checked randomly. You are responsible for all the
announcements,
changes, course information, and topics that I cover in class. If you
miss
a substantial number of lectures without discussing the matter
with
me and without a valid excuse, a penalty of score deduction of
homeworks
and quizzes may be given according to number of lectures missed.
