Attendance:
Attendance is very important. It will show readily on the exams if you don't come to class, come to lab and participate in our online site. Much of what we will study this semester does not exist anywhere on paper so there is no substitute for being there.
We take attendance in lab and, occasionally, in lecture.
Please be prompt for all classes and labs. Everyone is late occasionally, but it is impolite to your fellow students and the instructor if you regularly straggle in late. Also, turn off your cellular phone during class. If it rings, you will be asked to leave for the day.
How often do we meet?
This class involves two hours of lecture each week and two hours of lab. You also will have assignments to complete outside of class.
Class meeting times and classrooms for both lecture and lab are assigned each semester by the registrar's office. For exact locations, please see the registrar's course schedule.
You will need a USB memory key on which to save your work during our labs. A 1GB one will be adequate and should cost less than $15.
