All information, including exam dates, homework and quizzes, can be found on the common web page as well as in the Common Syllabus.
Handouts can be retrieved from the common web page.
For the course material that will be covered see the course calendar.
Please be aware of the Policies of the course, spelled out in the Common Syllabus.
If you need help with the course contact me as soon as possible. Do not wait with seeking help. It is very hard to catch up in a Math course after falling behind. I am happy to help you, but you need to let me know that you need help. See also the section Study Advice and Getting Help on the common web page.

Information on MA 193:

In addition to the 4 hours of credit for MA 113, the department offers one additional hour of credit for MA 193 on a pass/fail basis. You will pass MA 193 if you have at most 2 unexcused absences during MA 113 recitations and you pass MA 113. If you fail MA 113 or have 3 or more unexcused absences you will fail MA 193. Your section number for MA 193 has to equal your section number for MA 113. That means, if you drop or change sections of MA 113, please make sure to also drop or change sections of MA 193!
Students in the MathExcel Program only register for the recitation MA 193-010 and attend the Wednesday recitation 193-010 listed above in addition to the regular Tuesday-Thursday recitation corresponding to their section of MA 113.

Attendance and Classroom Behavior:

I will take classroom attendance about 20 times randomly throughout the semester. Your attendance score will be based on the percentage of lectures you attend. See also the section Policies on the common web page.
The teaching assistants will take attendance for recitations every time (see MA 193). Have in mind that not bringing the recitation worksheets to recitation classes results in an unexcused absence.
