I believe that this course will challenge
you academically, and you will need to study! If you spend at least
six to eight hours per week outside
of class studying for this course, you should do well. Some chapters will
not require as much time, but you may need to allow extra study time for
others.
Read each
chapter before lecture, and be prepared to discuss the
material. The homework is geared to aid class discussion and to ensure
your understanding of the concepts. Be prepared to discuss the assigned
exercises and problems (you may use your notes). All "Exercises"
and "Problems" should be neatly written before arriving
in the classroom. Please prepare all PROBLEMS on separate
pages, as one may be collected for grading. You may be asked to put a
particular exercise or problem on the board for class discussion.
Print out the PowerPoint slides provided (use
black & white handout format, 3 to a page, to facilitate note-taking
during lectures). Bring your text, paper, pencil, a calculator, and a
scantron to all class sessions. You will
want to take notes during the lectures, as you will be held responsible
for all material covered in the text and in lectures.
We will not have a formal review session for exams, but I will make suggestions
during lectures regarding "good test questions" and things you
"will see again." Information stressed in this manner is almost
guaranteed to appear on one or more of the exams.
Be sure to note the following sections
in each chapter. They may be discussed in class, and will make good quiz
or exam questions. You WILL be held responsible for all
assigned readings, even though some topics may not be given in-depth coverage
during lectures.

Use this website and your WebCT site as a guide to allocating your study time and as a reminder of the schedule of assignments, exams, important events, etc.
