- You are responsible for reading the syllabus in all your classes.
- The printed version I hand out in class is typically a shortened version, for quick reference only.
- The link above goes to the full, official syllabus. Be sure to read the official version.
- It is also linked directly
from the Course Main Page, and posted on D2L as well.
- CURRENT SEMESTER Exam Topics Lists (Objectives):
- Tentative exam dates are shown on the calendar on the Course Main Page.
- If date adjustments are needed, I announce them as soon in advance as possible.
- The Topics List links below go live one week in advance of the exam date.
- Topics Lists tell you what content is covered;
-
You can then use notes, HW (graded and not), and other course materials to study however works best for you.
- Some students make a summary study guide, some design a practice test for themselves, some create flash card decks, etc.
- You MUST take the Final Exam at the scheduled
time. See the calendar on the Course Main Page.
- Do NOT plan travel that conflicts with ANY of your final
exams!
- CURRENT SEMESTER HW and Exam Solutions:
- I write at least a partial answer key for every HW and exam in our course.
- Scans will be posted on D2L, where you can download or print them for your own study use, but do NOT share them outside of our course.
- Paper copies of solutions are on the bulletin board near my office door, but DO NOT remove them from the office suite, and do not share photos outside of our course.
- To protect the authors' rights, I also sometimes omit solutions to textbook problems.
- You should study your graded materials - including feedback and answer keys - to understand mistakes and avoid making them again.
- Past Semester Exams and Solutions:
- Caution! Material may not be ordered, organized, separated,
or covered
the same as this semester.
- These just give you extra practice and an idea of length;
they're NOT templates for this semester's exams.
- I rarely reuse or refer to old exams
when writing for the current semester, but I'm still the author, so questions may be very similar SOMETIMES.
