Daily homework assignments will consist of assignments from the textbook. Detailed instructions on format for written assignments will be given in class.I do not accept late homework.
Written Lab Assignments:
Students will be required to print lab assignments from Blackboard on a weekly basis at their own expense. Students will be allowed to work in groups during lab time (if available) and may be required to present and discuss solutions to various problems. Attendance in lab is mandatory. Students who do not complete the entire lab time will not be allowed to submit their labs for the week. Labs will be submitted in class and graded by the instructor. Detailed instructions on format for written assignments will be given in class. Assignment deadlines will be announced as material is covered. I do not accept late lab assignments.
Possible Special Projects (if time)
Two special projects may be assigned for the semester. These two projects will be included as lab grades.

The second project consists of solving the 3x3 Rubik’s Cube in class.
Exams:
Three (3) major exams and a mandatory comprehensive final will be given during the semester. Make-up tests will not be given. If an exam is missed, the grade will be replaced with the score you make on the final exam. This policy applies to one exam only. If you miss more than one exam, a grade of zero will be averaged for the other missed exams. If you do not miss any exam during the semester, the grade on the mandatory final exam, if higher, will replace the lowest exam grade.
If you know ahead of time that you will be missing an exam, you may schedule to take the exam early. Only under extenuating, verifiable circumstances and at the discretion of the instructor will an exam be given early.
Daily attendance is required in both lecture and lab.
