IMPORTANT NOTE: Doing the reading includes doing the Preview Activities and the Progress Checks in the book. The Practice Problems you should think through, but do not have to write up to hand in. Often they will have answers available, so will help you be better prepared to work on the Hand-In Problems. Your written answers to the Hand-In Problems must conform to the Homework guidelines and any requirements mentioned in class for particular problems and assignments.
