As noted below,WebWork is 20% of your grade . There are 8 WebWork assignments , each is due by 11:59 PM of the day
on which it appears on the syllabus . Each WebWork assignment will appear online about 3 or 4 days before its due .

How to access WebWork

1) Click onto WebWork which is found on the Math Department page .
Or you can go directly to http://webwork.wustl.edu/webwork2/
2) Find our course Math 131 ( Summer ) and click onto it .
3) Login your name and password . For the first time , both your name
and your password will be your six number student ID . Change
your password after you login the first time .
4) Once you log into WebWork you will see your assignmnets and at
what date each can be viewed .
5) When it can be viewed print out the problem set , go away from the
computer and work out the problems . After you think that you have solutions
for all the problems go back to your computer .
6) Click on the problem set then click on " Do the problem set" .
To know how to type in the mathematical symbols , such as square
roots , click on Webwork documentation followed by clicking on
"How to enter answers in WeBWorK" .
7)The program will tell you if your right or wrong .
If it says you are wrong you may try again .
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

EXAM I : 20 questions , 5 points each , partial credit available .
You can bring with you a 3 x 5 card with whatever you want to write on it .
Also you can bring along your "scientific calculator" .

2. Grading Information

There will be four exams during the semester, E1 , E2 , E3 .and a final , F .
.

GRADES : Each of the four Exams will count 20% toward the final course grade . Similarly the grade of the WeBWorK will be 20% .

The lowest of the first 3 exam score will be replaced by the Final exam score if the Final exam score is larger than it .

Your letter grade for the course will not be lower than it would be if it were based on the scale appearing in the following table .

Numerical Range	Letter Grade
90 to 100	A
80 to 89.99	B
65 to 79.99	C
50 to 64.99	D
Below 50	F or NC

Missed Exams : If you are unable to take one of Exams E1-E3 for legitimate reasons ( such as verified illness or serious family emergency ) you will not be given a make-up exam . You first need to explain to me why you missed the exam and if everything is in order you will get an excused absence . Your grade for the missed exam will be calculated by a statistical proceedure which uses your scores on the other taken exams, including the Final . If the only exam you miss is the Final Exam , and for that receive an excused absence , then you must take a make-up Final exam at the begining of the Fall semester 2005 .

Policy for taking exams :

A standard-sized 3x5 index card will be permitted as a "cheat sheet" on the exams. You will also be given
copies of what appears inside the front cover of your textbook .

The only calculator allowed at each of the exams must be a Scientific Calculator .
( CALCULATORS like TI-83 that do DERIVATIVES INTEGRALS or GRAPHING , are NOT ALLOWED )

.

Resources for Help with Math 131 : Old Exams and solutions are posted on the web as a study guide ( see above , "solutions" ) . This comes from the Math Department page and it includes exams from the past semesters , starting with Spring 2000 . Copies of some of these exams should also be available to view or copy at the Reserve Desk of Olin Library.
