Note. The date of the final examination is set by the Registrar and takes precedence over the
final examination date reported in this outline. Students must verify this date on Bear Tracks
when the Final Examination Schedule is posted.
9. DEFERRED EXAMINATIONS
Missed Midterm Exam
There will be no deferred midterm examination. If you have a valid reason for missing
the exam (e.g., incapacitating illness, severe domestic affliction or other compelling reasons
such as university sports team obligation), then you can apply for an excused absence. To
apply for an excused absence, you must present to the instructor supporting documentation
pertaining to the absence within two working days of missing the exam or as soon as possible.
In the case of an incapacitating illness, a medical note will be accepted. In the case of religious
conviction, the student must inform the instructor by the end of the second week of classes.
An excused absence is a privilege and not a right. There is no guarantee that an absence will
be excused. Misrepresentation of facts to gain an excused absence is a serious breach of the
Code of Student Behaviour.
If an excused absence has been granted, then the weight of the midterm exam will be transferred
to the final exam.
Missed Final Exam
The deferred final examination (for those who qualify—consult the University Calendar)
is scheduled as follows: Saturday, January 10, 2015 in CAB 357 at 09:00 (registration is at
08:30 in CAB 357). Please note that students are required to apply for deferred final exams
at their Faculty Office within two working days of the missed exam.

10. REEXAMINATION
A student who writes the final exam and fails the course may apply for a reexamination.
Reexaminations are rarely granted in the Faculty of Science. These exams are governed by
the University (Calendar section 23.5.5) and Faculty of Science Regulations (Calendar section
192.5.3). Misrepresentation of facts to gain a reexamination is a serious breach of the Code of
Student Behaviour.
11. ASSIGNMENTS (ONLINE)
Assignments will consist of a total of 11 online assignments. We will use the best nine marks
out of 11 to calculate the final mark for the assignments.
We use Enhanced WebAssign (www.webassign.net) for online assignments. Each student is
required to register on EWA using the access code that comes with a new copy of the
textbook (or a stand-alone access code). To register on EWA, please use the following class
key particular to your section.

You will be asked to make your own login id and password. Enter a username of your choice,
something other than your UA CCID. For the Student Information field, please use your real
first and last name so that the instructor can properly identify you on the online grade book.
Please use your U of A email address here. Do not supply your student ID#. Once you
login to WebAssign, you will be able to see the homework assignments and when a homework
is available and due. After an answer is entered on WebAssign, you will get an instant response
as to if your answer is correct. You are allowed a total of three tries per question (in most
cases).
NO LATE ASSIGNMENTS WILL BE ACCEPTED. Failure to submit an assignment
on time for any reason will result in a mark of zero.

Online Homework Disclaimer
Online homework is a component of this course and is provided by a third-party company.
Please be aware that this company will be storing assessment information that may be associated with you.
12. LABORATORIES (scheduled for Math 113 students)
Those students who registered in Math 113 were required to register for a lab with class
time/date stated as TBA. We no longer have scheduled labs. Instead, we have workshops for
both Math 113 and 114 students.
13. WORKSHOPS AND WORKSHEETS
Workshops are held in the Decima Robinson Support Centre (CAB 528) from Monday through
Friday between 10:00 and 15:00, starting the second week of classes (the week of Sept. 8).
Note that workshop attendance is not mandatory, but students who require assistance when
working on the worksheets can obtain help from the Teaching Assistants during the workshops.
Students can attend the workshops any time from 10:00 to 15:00 (Monday–Friday). During a
workshop, students will be encouraged to work actively through questions on the worksheets,
which should be printed out in advance from the eClass site. Teaching Assistants dedicated to
Math 113/114 will be available to provide help on the questions on the worksheets and other
questions in the course.
During the term, there will be nine worksheets, which are available through the eClass site each
week. Completed worksheets are due in the appropriate assignment box on the third floor of
CAB by the due date/time noted on each worksheet (the schedule of worksheet due dates is also
attached to this outline). Late worksheets will not be graded and a mark of zero will
be assigned. The best eight out of nine worksheets will be counted for the average. Please
check the eClass site on a regular basis for worksheets, due dates/times, solutions and other
relevant information.
Marked worksheets can be picked up from the workshops. They will be kept in CAB 528
for two weeks from the day they are returned, after which any unclaimed worksheets will be
recycled.
14. HELP SESSIONS (Decima Robinson Support Centre)
Help sessions will be available on a first-come first-serve basis in CAB 528, Monday–Friday
from 09:00–15:00. The starting date will be announced later.
There are also other resources available. Please go to the eClass site for further details.
15. COURSE OUTLINES
The policy on course outlines can be found in Section 23.4(2) of the University Calendar.
16. DISCLAIMER
Any typographical errors in this course outline are subject to change and will be announced
in class. The date of the final examination is set by the Registrar and takes precedence over
the final examination date reported in this outline.

Student Responsibilities
1. CODE OF STUDENT BEHAVIOUR
The University of Alberta is committed to the highest standards of academic integrity and
honesty. Students are expected to be familiar with these standards regarding academic honesty and to uphold the policies of the University in this respect. Students are particularly urged to familiarize themselves with the provisions of the Code of Student Behaviour
(www.ualberta.ca/secretariat/appeals.htm) and avoid any behavior which could potantially result in suspicions of cheating, plagiarism, misrepresentation of facts and/or participation in an offence. Academic dishonesty is a serious offence and can result in suspension or
expulsion from the University.
All forms of dishonesty are unacceptable at the University. Any offense will be reported to
the Senior Associate Dean of Science who will determine the disciplinary action to be taken.
Cheating, plagiarism and misrepresentation of facts are serious offenses. Anyone who engages
in these practices will receive a minimum of a grade of zero for the exam or paper in question
and no opportunity will be given to replace the grade or redistribute the weights. As well, in
the Faculty of Science, the sanction for cheating on any examination will include a disciplinary
failing grade (no exceptions) and senior students should expect a period of suspension or
expulsion from the University of Alberta.
2. EXAMS
Your student photo ID is required at exams to verify your identity. Students will not be allowed
to begin an examination after it has been in progress for 30 minutes. Students must remain
in the exam room until at least 30 minutes have elapsed.
Electronic equipment cannot be brought into examinations.
3. CELL PHONES
Cell phones are to be turned off during lectures. Cell phones are not to be brought to exams.
4. STUDENTS ELIGIBLE FOR ACCESSIBILITY-RELATED ACCOMMODATIONS
(Students registered with Speicialized Support and Disability Services (SSDS)
Eligible students have both rights and responsibilities with regard to accessibility-related accommodations. Consequently, scheduling exam accommodations in accordance with SSDS
deadlines and procedures is essential. Please note adherance to procedures and deadlines is
required for U of A to provide accommodations. Contact SSDS (www.ssds.ualberta.ca) for
further information.
5. RECORDING OF LECTURES
Audio or video recording of lectures, labs, seminars or any other teaching environment by
students is allowed only with the prior written consent of the instructor or as a part of an
approved accommodation plan. Recorded material is to be used solely for personal study, and
