Online homework is a requirement of this course.
To use the online homework system you will need to visit WebAssign. (See info in next section below.)
Homework will be given posted for every lecture; it is your responsibility to check daily and make sure you complete the assignment by the posted due-date.
Occasionally it might happen that the system has the wrong solution to a problem. This should be very rare, so first please double check your solution, if this is what you suspect. If you are positive the system has the wrong answer, then please inform your instructor.
The WebAssign schedule is something like this:
1) The professor lectures on the material in section A on a given day.
The WebAssign assignment for section A is accessible by students even a few days earlier. The idea is that they can walk directly out of class and start the assignment if they want to do so. Or even a bit earlier.
