Problem Sets
There will be a weekly problem set that consists of two
parts:
1. CyberTutor problems to be answered on-line by 10 pm
Wednesday.
2. Hand-written problems to be handed in on Fridays by
4:00 pm. Please write your name, subject, recitation number
and the name of the recitation instructor on the top right corner
of the first page of the homework assignment. Your completed problem
sets should be placed in the recitation instructors box in
room 4-339B.
Experiments
As you know, the experimental work, based primarily on take-home
kits, will be a major feature of this course. Experiment instructions
will be handed out in class on a Wednesday. There will be a few
short questions regarding the analysis of the experiment that will
in general be due on Fridays. YOU WILL NOT BE AWARDED A GRADE
UNTIL YOU HAVE HANDED IN THE RETURNABLE PARTS WITH THE RED BOX.
Grading
As in all subjects taken by freshmen in the first semester, the
official grades will be only Pass/No Record. However, your work
during the semester will be graded quantitatively to give you a
clear picture of how you are doing. The numerical basis for the
final grade will be approximately as follows: 3 quizzes 45%,
final exam 25%, CyberTutor 10%, hand-written problem sets 10%, experiment
problems 10%.
