Homework Problems
Homework Set are 20 points each. I encourage each of you to do the "Jogging" Level.
If you receive 15 points of fewer on a homework set, you will need to submit the lower level HW set for the same chapter within one week of when it is returned to the class. You will then receive the grade for the easier set. If you are doing well on the homeworks, I will encourage you to move up a level for the next chapter.
I will accept homeworks after the due date for 5 points off up to 1 week late. I will not accept them more than 1 week late.
(subject to change throughout the semester)
Finally, please be sure to include the problem numbers on your homeworks. (i.e Ch 15 #15(a)) beside each problem. Also, please copy the problem in full before your answer. And last but not least, put your name and date at the top and staple all the pages together. Failure to do these things, makes it much harder to grade and will result in a loss of 5 points.
