Policies

Linear Algebra

MATH 2130 Spring 2021

Attendance

Classroom attendance (via Zoom) is required.

You are required to have a working camera and microphone for this course.

You will be required to have your camera turned on for the duration of each class, and the microphone must be working so that you can answer questions. You will be required to have your camera turned on, and your microphone functioning, to receive credit for any assignments completed in class.

As much as is possible, this course will be run as though it were an in-person course.

In addition to new material, quizzes, and exams, important course information will be given in class, which may include review sheets and practice exams.  If you miss a class, please contact another student in the class to obtain information about what was covered, what materials were given, etc.

Missed exams and assignments

You may miss an exam or assignment only in the case of an emergency. I will require documentation within one week of your return to class.

Disability

If you qualify for accommodations because of a disability, please submit to me a letter from Disability Services within the first two weeks of class so that your needs can be addressed. Disability Services determines accommodations based on documented disabilities.

See http://www.colorado.edu/disabilityservices for more information.

Religious observance

If you have a conflict with a scheduled exam, or assignment, because of a religious observance, please submit to me a letter within the first two weeks of class indicating this so that a make-up exam, or extended deadline, can be arranged.

See http://www.colorado.edu/policies/observance-religious-holidays-and-absences-classes-andor-exams for more information. A (relatively) comprehensive calendar of religious holidays is at http://www.interfaithcalendar.org/

Classroom behavior

Students and faculty each have responsibility for maintaining an appropriate learning environment. Those who fail to adhere to such behavioral standards may be subject to discipline.

Class rosters are provided to me with students' legal names. I will gladly honor your request to address you by an alternate name or gender pronoun.

All students are responsible for knowing and adhering to the Academic Integrity Policy of the University of Colorado. Violations will not be tolerated.

Students caught cheating will, on their first offense, receive a zero for the given assignment, and have their letter grade for the course reduced by a full letter grade.  On the second offense, their letter grade for the course will be an F.  This policy, as with all the policies for the course, may be changed at any time for any reason.
