DISCRETE MATH

Welcome to Discrete Math.  I am Mr. Stanley and I am eager to start the upcoming semester.  I have some exciting activities arranged for Discrete Math.  Hopefully you will learn a few things as the year progresses.  So let's begin and get the boring stuff out of the way (materials needed, rules, grading procedures, etc.)

A.    CLASS MATERIALS
        You will need the following items in class everyday:

  
     -    pencils (no pens in this class)
        -    Discrete Math textbook (NOT ENGLISH, BIOLOGY, OR HISTORY) – Mathematics All Around – Addison Wesley
        -    3-ring binder with loose leaf paper and dividers
        -    Calculator (TI-83, TI-83 plus, or TI-84 family)

 
B.    CLASS RULES

        Please print and sign a copy of the Class Expectations form on my website.  Consequences for breaking these 
   
     rules are further outlined in the Student Handbook.


C.    GRADING PROCEDURE
        The grading policy is as follows:

            Test                                             55 %
            Quizzes                                        30 %
            Homework / Classwork               15 %

 Seventy percent credit will be given for late homework turned in one day late. Fifty percent credit will be given for late homework turned in two days late.  Homework will not be accepted after this time.  If absent the day of a test, you will have three days to complete the test at a time convenient for you and me.

            FIRST NINE WEEKS          SECOND NINE WEEKS          FINAL GRADE         

            average               90%           average  100%                           first nine weeks       40%
           
mid-term exam   10%                                                                second nine weeks   40%
