Text
: There will not be a book for this class. We will be using notes that will be uploaded on Blackboard.

Scores: Scores will be posted on eGradebook.

Homework: Homework which will be collected at the beginning of every class. The assignments will be posted on Blackboard. No late homework will be accepted. The lowest three homework scores will be dropped.

Participation: An important part of your grade will be determined upon participation in class. This will include both presenting material in class as well as participating in the discussion. Often you will be asked to present a problem or two privately to either the instructor or the TA at a time that will be scheduled outside class. This will be done in groups of two.
 

Midterm Exams
: There will be two in-class exams. The tentative schedule is set for February 22nd and April 11th.

Final Exam: The final exam will be comprehensive. It will be scheduled during the regular final examination period.

Grading
: The grades will be determined as follows:

                    Homework 30%

                    Participation 20%

                    Midterms 15% each

                    Final 20% 

The grades will approximately follow the following scale: 90-100% A, 80-89% B, 70-79% C, 60-69% D, 0-59% F

The scale could potentially be lowered in the students favor.

The University of Texas Honor Code:

The core values of The University of Texas at Austin are learning, discovery, freedom, leadership, and responsibility. Each member of the University is expected to uphold these values though integrity, honesty, trust, fairness, and respect toward peers and community.

Students with Disabilities:

Students who require special accommodations need to get a letter that documents the disability from the Services for Students with Disabilities area of the Office of the Dean of Students (471-6259-voice or 471-4641-TTY for users who are deaf or hard of hearing). This letter should be presented to the instructor in each course at the beginning of the semester and accommodations needed should be discussed at that time. Five business days before an exam the student should remind the instructor of any testing accommodations that will be needed.
