Problem sets are posted in PDF on the
lectures webpage. Your
browser can be trained to open these files with the free program
Acrobat
Reader (or other PDF viewer). Problem sets will be collected at
the beginning of class on Tuesday; late homework will not be
accepted. Your best ten problem sets will determine your
homework grade. Graded homework can be picked up in the Math 402
boxes outside of 201 Jeffery Hall.
Written Work
We write to communicate. Please bear this in mind as you complete
homework, projects, and exams. Work must be neat and legible to
receive consideration. You must explain your work in order to
obtain full credit; an assertion is not an answer.
Technology
Students are strongly encouraged to use any available technology on
the homework and project, but no technical aids will be allowed on
the exam.
Disabilities
Students with disabilities, who will be taking this course and may need
disability-related accommodations, are encouraged to make an appointment
to see the instructor as soon as possible. Also, please contact the
Queen's Student Accessibility Services to register for support services.
Academic integrity
It is the obligation of each student to understand the
University's policies regarding academic integrity and to uphold
these standards. Departures from academic integrity include plagiarism,
use of unauthorized materials, facilitation, forgery, and falsification.
Actions that contravene the regulations on academic integrity carry
sanctions that can range from a warning, to the loss of grades on an
assignment, to the failure of a course, to a requirement to withdraw from
the university. Students are encouraged to talk about the problems, but
should write up the solutions individually. Students should acknowledge the
assistance of any books, software, students, or professors.
