Discussion 365 Outline

For an updated plan due to campus shutdown, see your email. Much of the following information is no longer applicable.

Quizzes are at the end of section.

Approximately one quiz every other week. Lowest quiz score will be dropped from the grade calculation. This is to account for any unforeseen circumstances or obligations that require you to miss the quiz. Therefore, no make-up quizzes will be offered.

Homeworks are due at the beginning of Friday lecture.

• Homework MUST be stapled together.
• Your name must be highlighted on the front page.

No makeup homeworks or quizzes.

The system with dropping the lowest quiz and HW score is to allow for emergencies or situations where you must miss sections. If you must miss a Friday lecture, plan ahead and ask a classmate to turn in your homework for you.

This is the official course policy set by the professor. For your advantage, you will want to only use the drop when you absolutely have to, ie, when there is an unavoidable conflict/emergency. Try not to take a drop simply because you are not prepared.

Restrict emails to me for emergencies and confidential matters.

If you have a concern, please come talk to me during office hours.

My Office Hours are: Updated on left panel!

Thu, 11:15am – 12pm and 2:30pm-3:45pm Van Vleck 722.

Switches between sections

• If you must miss a discussion day for unavoidable reasons, you do not need to inform me. However, prolonged absences should be communicated so that I do not worry about you.
• You are welcome to sit in my discussion even if you are not registered, but you will have to take your quizzes and turn in your assignments to your officially registered discussion section.
• If you wish to permanently switch from my section to a different TA’s (which is totally fine – no hurt feelings), or from someone else’s section to mine, please do so officially, using the “Swap” feature on Course Search and Enroll (in MyUW).
