Math 1432 - Online |
Instructor: Rebecca George, 609 PGH, bekki@math. Office Hours: As posted on the class webpage and discussion board
and by appointment. Course Homepage: online.math.uh.edu/courses Text: Available online at http://www.casa.uh.edu . Access Codes: You must purchase an Access Code from the UC Book
Store to access the online text, videos, EMCFs and quizzes. After you
purchase the Access Code, log intohttp://www.casa.uh.edu and enter your code. The Deadline is
Thursday June 6th. Note that you have an online quiz due on Friday. Online Live Class Meetings: There will one online live class lecture meeting
each week and two online lab options each week. Students are encouraged to
attend. Electronic questions will be asked in these online sessions, and
students can earn credit for attending these sessions by successfully
answering at least 60% of the questions correctly. Students who do NOT receive
credit for attending the online live meeting can earn credit by completing an
additional assignment that will be listed on the homework page. The
online meetings will be held from 6-7:30pm on Tuesday. A question/answer session will
immediately follow the lecture (the question/answer session is optional).
Much of the weekly material will be discussed and example problems will be
worked during the lectures. Students are expected to spend additional time
reading the textbook and watching posted videos. The link to the online
meetings will appear on the course homepage by the middle of the first week.
All of the online meetings will be recorded, and the videos will be posted on
the course homepage. Recitation: There is no separate
recitation grade. You have signed up for both a lecture section and a
recitation section. The two sections are interwoven in the course, and a
grade will be given for the lecture section which represents the work in the
combined classes. The lab session is a problem working session that will
meet online. Homework: Homework will be assigned each week. Multiple choice homework
assignments will be submitted online using EMCF on CASA. Written homework
will be collected throughout the semester. Students will submit their written
homework by scanning their written work and then uploading it using CourseWare. Instructions will be given. Daily Grades: Daily grades will be given in the online live sessions beginning the
first week of class. During that time, students will log into CourseWare and answer questions using an online
EMCF. The EMCF will also be used for electronic homework. As stated above, if a
student cannot attend the online session, then they can complete an alternate
assignment for their daily grade. Online Quizzes: Regular online quizzes will be due during the semester. Check the
course calendar page for due dates. You can attempt each of these quizzes up
to 20 times. The highest grade will be used for your score. You can access
the quizzes by logging into CourseWare
after June 3rd. Exams: Proctored midterms and final exams will be given on campus in the
CASA testing center. The final exam will be comprehensive. If you live
outside of the Houston area, you may ask for permission to have your exams
proctored at a location in your area. For more information see http://distance.uh.edu/services/exam_proctoring.html. Exam 1 (Online only,
covers prerequisite material): June 3-10 Grades: Online Quizzes - 10% Homework – 10% Daily grades - 10% Test 1 (online) - 10% Tests 2 & 3 (15% each) - 30% Final Exam - 30% Notice
that a portion of your grade will be determined from daily grades, which
includes answering EMCF questions correctly in lecture and lab, completing
the alternate assignment for that day, and participation on the discussion
board.
Whenever possible, and in accordance
with 504/ADA guidelines, we will attempt to provide reasonable academic
accommodations to students who request and require them. |
