Zarske Math 100 Friday Fall 2011 1
COURSE REQUIREMENTS: Exams: Three exams worth 200 points each. Notes allowed for each exam: One whole sheet of 8½ x11 paper with notes on ONE side. Your notes must be handwritten or typed by you. Final Exam: Worth 200 points. Notes allowed: Two whole sheets of 8½ x11 paper with notes on ONE side. Your notes must be handwritten or typed by you. In addition to the students notes, you may use a copy of the formula sheet which will be distributed in class. You will not need a scantron or bluebook for the exams. Team Quizzes: Team quizzes worth 5 points each will be given in class as per the schedule on p. 6 of this syllabus. You may use your book and notes for team quizzes. If you arrive after the quiz has begun or leave before we have completely finished the quiz including review of the answers, you will not get credit for the quiz. Homework: Homework worth 10 points per assignment will be collected at the beginning of each class meeting. The homework assignment sheet (pages 7-9 of this packet) gives the daily assignments. We will have limited class time to answer homework questions. You need to use any or all of your resources to get as many of your homework questions as possible answered before class begins: Use the solutions manual to guide you Ask me questions during office hours Ask for help in the tutoring center (LRC 806) Utilize the Pearson telephone tutoring service if you purchased MyMathLab resources See p. 3 of the syllabus for more information about resources for extra help. Reading Worksheets: These worksheets are posted on MyGateway, and will be sent as attachments to the weekly update e-mails I will be sending you. The worksheets guide you through the sections in preparation for class. Even if you are using online materials, you will still fill out the worksheets on paper. Some worksheets are required; others are optional for extra credit. Book Homework: Show all your work neatly on notebook paper. The answers to all assigned problems are in the back of the textbook, or in the solutions manual. If you are using MyMathLab to access the text, see p. 7 of this packet ( Book Problems ) for instructions on accessing the problems and answers. Staple your work to any worksheets due that day, and turn in the whole assignment at the beginning of each class meeting. PLEASE USE REGULAR NOTEBOOK PAPER, NOT PAPER TORN FROM SPIRAL NOTEBOOKS THANK YOU! ATTENDANCE POLICY This class is not a typical lecture class. We work extensively in teams, which makes you interdependent with other students. Your regular attendance is important not only to your own success, but also to the success of your team. Treat this class like a job. You should only miss class for serious and compelling reasons, e.g. illness, death in the family, emergency, etc. If you must miss class, you must contact me by email (or by phone if email is not possible) to let me know you will miss class. I prefer that you contact me before class begins so I can adjust my class plans, but you must contact me no later than 24 hours after the class begins. If you miss class a total of two or more times without contacting me, I will assume you are dropping the class, and I will submit an instructor withdrawal. If you must miss a total of two or more class meetings (or six hours total) but you contact me, you are still in jeopardy of being dropped from the class. You may or may not be able to remain in the class, depending on the situation. Important: If you miss ANY of the first three class meetings without contacting me within 24 hours, you will be dropped from the class. Zarske Math 100 Friday Fall 2011 2
Absence Reporting Line: Email: czarske@fullcoll.edu (preferred) Phone: (714) 992-7413 (use if e-mail is not possible) Send an email with your name, the class you are in (Math 100 Friday), and the date of your absence. If you wish, you may inform me of the reason for your absence, but you are not required to do so. Student Withdrawal: Fullerton College considers it to be the responsibility of the student to drop a class through Admissions and Records if he or she wishes to withdraw. If you wish to withdraw from this class by your choice, it is your responsibility to do so through Webstar on MyGateway. Deadline to withdraw from any Fullerton College class: Sunday November 20. MAKE-UP POLICY: Homework: Any homework not turned in at the beginning of the class meeting it is due will be counted late, regardless of the reason. Homework turned in late but during the class meeting in which it is due will have a penalty of 2 points. After the class period, there will be a penalty of 3 points per class day late. Quizzes: If for any reason you are not in class at the time a quiz is given, arrive after it has begun, or leave before it is over, you will not get credit for the quiz and may not make it up. Since there are no make-ups allowed, one missed quiz will be dropped. Exams: If you know in advance that you will be absent on the day of an exam, you may make arrangements with me to take the exam before the scheduled date and time. Everyone may make up or retake exactly one of the three exams on the makeup day, Friday December 16. If for any reason you miss the class time in which an exam is given, you must make it up on the makeup day or your score will be zero. If you take all exams as scheduled, you may retake one exam of your choice. You will receive the higher of the two scores. Final: No make-ups for any reason.

CHILDREN ON CAMPUS Children are not allowed on campus unless supervised by a parent or guardian. Children may not attend classes or computer labs (unless the course is specifically designed to include children.)

EMERGENCY RESPONSE STATEMENT Take note of the safety features in and around the classroom. Also, please study the posted evacuation routes. The most direct route of exit may not be the safest. Running out of the building during earthquakes may be dangerous. During strong earthquakes, it is recommended to duck, cover, and hold until the quaking stops. Follow the guidance of your instructor. Your cooperation during emergencies can minimize the possibility of injury to yourself and others. FULLERTON COLLEGE CATALOG AND CLASS SCHEDULE The Fullerton College Catalog and the Class Schedule contain a number of policies relating to students that are important to you. Please be sure that you have read these publications thoroughly.
