20 points quizzes 20 points homework 30 points tests (15 points each) 30 points final exam 4 points optional experiments (2 points each) ----------- 104 points
Course grades are based on a total of 100 points. I will adopt the following system of assigning letter grades:
Before each class, you will be told to read specific sections of your textbook. At the beginning of any or all class meetings, you will be given a very brief quiz on that material. If you read the assignments in advance, you should be able to answer all questions with ease.
Extra-credit experiments are optional. Students may elect to do one or two experiments during the quarter. You may work in small groups (1 to 3 people) on experiments. No such assignments will be given during the final week of classes.
If you have any special needs, you must inform me during the first week of classes. Otherwise, I may not be able to make arrangements in time to help you. Please contact me after class or at my office.
