Read assigned material before the class when it is to be discussed. Focus on understanding and learning concepts. Do not make the mistake of skipping reading material before attempting homework assignments.
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. Start homework early and see me
for help with problems you don't know how to work! My office is Core 257-- See
my schedule for office hours or
call or send email for an appointment. I am always delighted to help.
