Email: anna@math.uh.edu
Please include "MATH 4332/6313" in the subject, so that your email won't be regarded as spam. For security reasons I will reply only to emails sent from official UH emails (i.e. ending in "uh.edu").
When writing an email, make sure it adheres to the protocol of formality, which is standard in academia. Read more about it here, for example.
Normally, I answer urgent emails within one-two business days. Generally, I do not repeat information that can be found on this website or was communicated in class. If I do not respond to your email within two working days, please resend the email. If you again do not hear from me within one more working day, it is likely that your email is not coming through and you should speak with me before or after class. It is your responsibility to ensure that I am aware of issues you may have with the course; failure to effectively initiate timely communication is not a valid basis for a grade grievance and cannot be used as such.
Bring comments or complaints to my attention as soon as possible. Don't wait until the end of the semester to bring up a matter which we could deal with and solve early on.
UH Email
Email
communications related to this course will be sent to your Exchange email account which each
University of Houston student receives. The Exchange mail
server can be accessed via Outlook, which provides a single
location for organizing and managing day-to-day information,
from email and calendars to contacts and task lists.
Exchange email accounts can be accessed by logging into
Office 365 with your Cougarnet credentials or through
Acccess UH. They can also be configured on IOS
and Android
mobile devices. Additional assistance can be found at the Get
Help page.
UH policy states that all required written notices shall be addressed to the student via their UH email. Notices properly addressed and so sent shall be presumed to have been received by the student. Thus, you are responsible for the content in emails sent to your UH account, regardless if your external (non-UH) email provider filters or blocks. Emails lost to external providers shall not be used as a justification to claim faculty are unresponsive, to appeal grades, etc.
Office Hours
Office hours will be done through Microsoft Teams by appointment only. You are welcome and encouraged to make an appointment if you have any questions about material or issues that you would like to discuss. Please contact me by email at least two days in advance to setup the meeting.
We will be using the following book: Kenneth Davidson, Allan Donsig, "Real Analysis with Application: Theory in Practice", Springer 2010
Topics
we cover each class are indicated in the calendar below. Here
are some tips on how to read your textbook
efficiently.
Homework
will
be handled using Gradescope system. Since this is an outside
of the UH website, you are not required to use. You must
inform me during the first week if you opt out of using the
system and alternative arrangements will be made for you.
Information below is directed to those students wishing to
use Gradescope system.
Homework
sheets can be downloaded in Gradescope. You will write
solutions by hand on a blank piece of paper, scan it and
upload to Gradescope indicating pages where solution to each
problem is located. You
are required to upload your paper to Gradescope before
11:00PM of the day indicated on the sheet and in the
calendar below. Deadline
extension may be granted only in case of a prolonged illness
or emergency described in the UH Absence
Policy, with proper and timely provided documentation.
Try to complete homework at lest
two days before the deadline expires, in case you encounter
any issues with your technology.
When
uploading your paper to Gradescope, make sure your copy is
of high quality (contrast, resolution,...). Your handwriting
must be clear and easy to read. Solution must be written
neatly from top to bottom in a logical way.
You
have one week after your grade is posted to submit a regrade
request if you believe there was a mistake with your
grading. Along with your request in Gradescope, you must
write me an email providing an explanation for a regrade
(e.g. your solution was correct, but was marked as
incorrect). Requests to change the rubrics will be ignored.
When
enrolling yourself in Gradescope, use code: JBXBRR
.
When entering your name, please enter the first 3 letters of
your LAST, then first 3 letters of your FIRST name. For
example, for a name John Smith, a student should enter "Smi
Joh". As your ID number, enter the last 3 digits of your
student ID. You are free to use any email with Gradescope,
it does not have to be your UH email.
Homework
will be graded selectively. Students in 6313 might receive
additional problems, and it's possible that different
problems will be graded for 4332 and 6313. In 6313 class,
students will be held up to a higher standards for writing
solutions in logical professional way.
Here is an extensive and very good
article on how to write and how not to write a good proof.
And here is another one.
One
midterm will be held during regular class times.
Midterm will consists of two problems from homework, two
problems from the list of theorems/statements covered in
class, and one new problem. The list of theorems/statements
will be uploaded to Teams no later than two weeks before the
exam. You are not allowed to use any help (notes, phones,
books, internet,...) during the exam.
Regrade Requests
You
have one week after your grade for the Midterm or
Homework is posted to submit a regrade request if you
believe there was a mistake with your grading. The deadline
for the Final regrade will be communicated by email after
the exam is graded.
Please
note that I take extreme care in grading, reviewing and
proving feedback on each individual assignment. It is very
rare for a significant mistake in grading to occur, however,
it is possible. Most of the time if you believe that a point
or two were taken off too many, it is as likely that a point
or two were given too many in another place. Also my main
concern is that all papers are graded uniformly, in other
words, the same amount of points are taken for the same
mistake.
Please
submit a regrade request only if all of the below conditions
are satisfied:
To
submit a regrade request please complete all of the steps
below:
Regrades
are a very time consuming task, and they are taken as
seriously as the original grading. When you submit a regrade
request, all of your paper will be reviewed and regraded.
This may result in the increase, decrease or no change in
the overall grade.
These
rules are not designed to scare off students, but are trying
to prevent frivolous requests from student who think that
"it doesn't hurt to ask".
Honor Code Statement
Students
may
be asked to sign an honor code statement as part of their
submission of any graded work including but not limited to
projects, quizzes, and exams: "I
understand and agree to abide by the provisions in the University of Houston Undergraduate
Academic Honesty Policy (or University of Houston Graduate Academic
Honesty Policy). I understand that academic honesty
is taken very seriously and, in the cases of violations,
penalties may include suspension or expulsion from the
University of Houston."
