Course Syllabus
Course Expectations
You are expected to be in class, on time, with the appropriate materials every day. You should be prepared to discuss the previous day’s assignment as well as to contribute to class discussions of new material. You should be an active participant in Math 7A at all times, both as an individual class member and as a member of a small group. You should listen attentively to the instructor and to your peers, ask and answer questions, and make a serious attempt to solve all problems that are posed. Most importantly, you are expected to treat your classmates with respect.
Grading and Assessment
The grade an individual earns in Math 7A reflects that student’s mastery of the material. Scores do not only reflect the number of right answers on an assessment but also the quality of the student’s writing and how well the student has conveyed their solution method. While most of a grade is determined by quiz and test scores, other assignments will occasionally be used to assess a student’s skills, particularly when those skills cannot be shown on a time-limited task. A number of other factors help to determine a student’s success in the course, but they do not contribute explicitly to the student’s grade. These factors are:
- The consistency and quality of homework assignments
- The consistency and quality of homework and test corrections
- The quality of any additional assignments
- The ability to keep current with assigned tasks
- Participation in class discussions and activities
