    • TABLE OF CONTENTS OF DAVIS AND SNIDER'S Introduction to Vector Analysis


    There will be 10 homework assignments during the semester. Your homework will not be collected or graded. Instead, there will be a short, 15 minute quiz every Thursday starting on January 26th. Each quiz will include 2 short problems chosen from your homework assignment. There will be 9 quizzes during the semester. I will count the best 7 of them towards your grade. Solutions to all homework problems assigned will be made available on my web page a few days before every quiz. There will also be two in-class exams. Your grade will be based on the quizzes and exams in the following way:

    Quizzes - 30% Exam #1 - 35% Exam #2 - 35%

    Note: Qualified students with disabilities needing appropriate academic adjustments should contact me as soon as possible to ensure your needs are met in a timely manner. Handouts are available in alternative accessible formats upon request.
