Important Reminders re the 14-day Assessment Cycle

There is a 20 min Concept Quiz that you must take every Thursday between 6pm and 11:59pm in the eLearning Course MATH 2415.701.
The Problem Section Assignments are in Column 5 below. You do them as follows (more details in the syllabus):
- Synchronous students: Do them with your small group in your Problem Section on Friday or Monday.
- Asynchronous students: Contribute your solutions attempts to your Discussion Forum in the eLearning Course MATH 2415.3XX, which opens 8am Friday and closes 8pm Monday.
Digital Homework is due every Tuesday at 11:59pm. See your WebAssign account which you can access via the eLearning Course MATH 2415.701.
Paper Homework is due every Wednesday at 11:59pm. The problem sets are in Column 7 below. You must submit your solutions to your eLearning Course MATH 2415.3XX.

Additional Info

There is a Single Variable Calculus Review Homework on WebAssign that is due on Saturday Sept 5th at 11:59pm. There are 21 problems in this review, each worth 3 points towards your WebAssign grade. The problems have been chosen because they are directly relevant to topics that will be discussed in Math 2415.
Students who are signed up for PLTL can find the problem sets in Column 6 below. Other are welcome to do them too!
