Topics, Textbook
and Homework
Please
see
the Math125 Materials website
for information about the syllabus, textbook and homework. You will submit your
assignments online through webassign. The
assignments will show up eight days before they are due.
Grading
There will be two midterms,
one final exam, homework assignments, quizzes and worksheets. The midterms are
25% each, the final is 30%. The worksheets are 5%,
homework assignments are 10% and quizzes are 5% of your total grade. I
do not grant extensions on homework assignments. There are no make ups for
worksheets or quizzes. I will drop your lowest worksheet and quiz grade. You can follow your
quiz, worksheet and exam grades from https://catalyst.uw.edu.
Week at a glance
Lectures
are on MWF following the syllabus on the materials website. You can find the
lectures on catalyst.
Tuesday sections are mainly for homework questions. The homework assignments are
due on Tuesdays by 11PM. So when you go to your Tuesday section, you
should have most of your assignment
already complete. Use this time with your TA and classmates to go over the more
difficult and challenging problems. If you are already done with that week’s
assignment, you can work on the next one on Monday’s lecture.
Thursday quiz sections are for worksheets and quizzes. I will
announce the quiz topic in lecture on Wednesdays if you remind me.
