Calendar for Assignments, Quizzes, and Tests

Note on ReadingUse the class discussion notes posted to the web page to guide your reading in terms of emphasized concepts.   We are not covering all of the material in each section  -- pay attention to the concepts and examples that you are asked to study.  

Note on Homework:
Write out complete answers NEATLY and CLEARLY. You must show your work! Partial credit is given when work is shown even if answer is incorrect.
