Online Live Class Meetings: There will one online live class meeting each week. Students are encouraged to attend. Electronic questions will be asked in these online sessions, and students can earn credit for attending these sessions by successfully answering at least 60% of the questions correctly. Students who do NOT receive credit for attending the online live meeting can earn credit by completing an additional assignment that will be listed on the homework page. The online meetings will be held from 4-6pm on Thursday. Much of the weekly material will be discussed and example problems will be worked. Students are expected to spend additional time reading the textbook and watching posted videos. The link to the online meetings will appear on the course homepage by the middle of the first week. All of the online meetings will be recorded, and the videos will be posted on the course homepage.

Homework: Written homework will be given most weeks, with the due dates noted on the course calendar. Students will submit their written homework by scanning and uploading their work to CourseWare. Instructions will be given.

Daily Grades: Daily grades will be given in the online live sessions beginning the first week of class. During that time, students will log into CourseWare and answer questions using an online EMCF.  The EMCF will also be used for electronic homework. As stated above, if a student cannot attend the online session, then they can complete an alternate assignment for their daily grade.

Online Quizzes: Regular online quizzes will be due during the semester. Check the course calendar page for due dates. You can attempt each of these quizzes up to 19 times. The highest grade will be used for your score. You can access the quizzes by logging into CourseWare after June 3rd.
