Homework
Mathematics is the art of solving problems. Calculus is a tool which we use in this art. The only way to learn how to use the tool is to solve problems. For that reason, homework is very important in this class. Accordingly, it is a major part of your grade. I should give you the ground rules for homework so that you are prepared to succeed in this class.
First, I will not accept late homework. You are given the entire set of homework assignments at the beginning of the course. Use them to plan around conflicts that you know will arise (such as exams or papers in other classes, and family commitments). I realize that there will also be conflicts that you cannot foresee. Therefore, I will drop your two lowest homework scores when calculating grades.
Homework must be neat. Since you are just learning calculus, I hope that you will be making mistakes.
Therefore, you should use a pencil. If you write your homework in a spiral notebook, please remove the "ruffles".
Or, better yet, you can leave the paper in your notebook and turn in a photocopy. Your papers should be stapled. By this I mean with metal staples. No origami staples. Be sure to put your name and assignment number on your paper as well.
Regarding notation, you should write only true statements. This means, among other things, that you should use an equals sign only to show that two things are equal. Please box your answer, show all of your work, and include units where appropriate. Feel free to write down estimates to the answer, especially if you are unable to do the problem. Be sure to include a statement on how you got the estimate. If the estimate is good and well-founded, then I am likely to give partial credit.
For homework problems in bold on the assignment sheet, please rewrite the statement of the problem. For the rest of the problems, you need not do this, but I suggest that it is useful when you are reviewing. Also included is a list of problems that you can do for extra credit. You are to rewrite the problem statement for any of these which you do.
I recommend that you work in small groups on your homework. Each person should, however, turn in their own work.
