Quizzes

There will be roughly 8-12 pop quizzes at the start of class. The subject will be assigned readings and lecture content since the previous quiz. The assigned readings from the textbook will be the most heavily quizzed over the course of the semester. Quizzes will be given at the beginning of class. Those who arrive late will have less time to finish the quiz, which will last less than 10 minutes. No makeup quizzes will be given, but the lowest quiz grade will be dropped.

Quiz questions concerning the book will be drawn almost exclusively from the ``Review exercises'' questions at the end of the chapter and the sample quiz questions on the book's web site.

Reading for Weeks 1 and 2 are to be completed by Wednesday of that week. Reading for all later weeks must be completed by Monday of the week.
