Homework & Grading Policies

Advice
-
At present, I have three pieces of advice. First, please check my course reviews. This is an assessment of my effectiveness from your peers in past terms. Make sure you know what you are getting into so your are not surprised after the drop/add period by how wonderful/dreadful I am. Second, I highly recommend working in groups. It will be very difficult to learn all of the material by yourself, but you can find additional support amongst your peers. Third, I recommend reading Dr. Zucker's comments on learning at a collegiate pace. If you want a good grade, read it. If you want to learn how to ace college and learn for the rest of your life, read it twice.
