Course Outline

Prep: Students are expected to prepare for class each day by watching the lecture videos for the sections to be covered and taking notes, then attempting the posted questions/problems. Notes should include, new terms and formulas as well as worked examples. The assigned questions/problems must be worked to an answer and will be graded on completeness, not on correctness. The notes and assigned problems should be submitted as a single PDF uploaded into Canvas. Late Prep assignments will not be accepted. The four lowest Prep scores will be dropped.
Check-Your-Understanding Problems: Check-your-Understanding problems are assigned from the textbook and need to be submitted in Canvas as a single PDF. Check-Your-Understanding are due on primarily on Tuesdays, but will be due on Wednesdays when the schedule requires. These problems are graded on completeness only and for full credit need to include any required work leading to an answer. If you have questions on these problems, please come to my office hours.
You are strongly encouraged to do your homework as independently as possible. Try and think about a problem several times before looking for outside help. Struggling through a problem is the only way to make connections that allow for better understanding, higher test performance and retention. Everything you turn in should be in your own words and you should thoroughly understand everything you write down.  Late Check-Your-Understanding Problems are NOT accepted.
Midterm Exams: There will be four midterm exams in the testing center. Books, notes, calculators, computers and other aids are NOT allowed on the exams. For exams, as with all submissions for this class, it is important that you submit your own authentic work that was created with approved resources. Students who have 90% or better attendance can drop their lowest score from the first three exams.
Final Exam: The final exam will be cumulative and will be given in class at the scheduled final exam time.  Altogether, four hours are available for the final exam. Books, notes, calculators, computers and other aids are NOT allowed on the final exam.

Academic Credit

According to the federal definition of a Carnegie credit hour: A credit hour of work is the equivalent of approximately 60 minutes of class time or independent study work. A minimum of 45 hours of work by each student is required for each unit of credit. Credit is earned only when course requirements are met. One (1) credit hour is equivalent to 15 contact hours of lecture, discussion, testing, evaluation, or seminar, as well as 30 hours of student homework. An equivalent amount of work is expected for laboratory work, internships, practica, studio, and other academic work leading to the awarding of credit hours. Credit granted for individual courses, labs, or studio classes ranges from 0.5 to 15 credit hours per semester.

Academic Freedom

SUU is operated for the common good of the greater community it serves. The common good depends upon the free search for truth and its free exposition. Academic Freedom is the right of faculty to study, discuss, investigate, teach, and publish. Academic Freedom is essential to these purposes and applies to both teaching and research.

Academic Freedom in the realm of teaching is fundamental for the protection of the rights of the faculty member and of you, the student, with respect to the free pursuit of learning and discovery. Faculty members possess the right to full freedom in the classroom in discussing their subjects. They may present any controversial material relevant to their courses and their intended learning outcomes, but they shall take care not to introduce into their teaching controversial materials which have no relation to the subject being taught or the intended learning outcomes for the course.

As such, students enrolled in any course at SUU may encounter topics, perspectives, and ideas that are unfamiliar or controversial, with the educational intent of providing a meaningful learning environment that fosters your growth and development. These parameters related to Academic Freedom are included in SUU Policy 6.6.

Academic Misconduct

Scholastic honesty is expected of all students. Dishonesty will not be tolerated and will be prosecuted to the fullest extent (see SUU Policy 6.33). You are expected to have read and understood the current SUU student conduct code (SUU Policy 11.2) regarding student responsibilities and rights, the intellectual property policy (SUU Policy 5.52), information about procedures, and what constitutes acceptable behavior.

Please Note: The use of websites or services that sell essays is a violation of these policies; likewise, the use of websites or services that provide answers to assignments, quizzes, or tests is also a violation of these policies. Regarding the use of Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI), you should check with your individual course instructor.
