Course details: This 2250-004 syllabus contains detailed course information, including course learning objectives, outline, grading policy, expected schedule etc. Note that you will be required to get a grade of at least "C" on the final exam in order to get a grade of at least "C" for the course.
Class lecture notes will be in this directory.
Homework assignments will be in this directory. This will include copies of your lab questions.
Homework, lab, quiz and exam grades will be recorded on-line, using "CANVAS"
understanding mathematics is the top google hit for that query. If you're having trouble in this class it could be that you need to rethink how you try to learn mathematics, and that link might help. Please contact me as well, and we'll see if there are some different or additional strategies you might employ.
The Kahn Academy and patrickJMT are good on-line resources for many of the topics in our course. Coming to and participating in the scheduled lectures and labs is also extremely important for most people who wish to learn the course material.
2250spring14 is the directory from my most recent previous Math 2250. The pacing and content this fall should be similar.
