See the Pitt Calculus Page for information relevant to all sections of Math 0240. In particular, you should look at the following two documents.
All three exams will be closed-book exams. Calculators will not be permitted on the exams. The final exam will take place on Friday April 27th from 8:00am to 9:50am, in a room to be announced.
Homework will be posted on or before the Thursday of each week, and completed homework assignments will be collected by your TA at the beginning of the lab the following Thursday. You're encouraged to discuss homework problems with each other, but you should write up your solutions individually. Homeworks should be presented neatly and carefully. Late homeworks will not be accepted without prior arrangement (genuine emergencies excepted): if for some reason you think you won't be able to get your homework in on time, please come and discuss this with me or your TA before the due date.
