Homework sets will be assigned most but not all weeks. Typically they will be assigned on Wednesday and due the following Wednesday at 8am. Material covered in the homework will be the same material covered in the workshops the week the homework is assigned.
Homeworks will not usually be fully graded, but rather spot checked and graded on a pass/fail basis. (The intent is to check for a serious effort to do the homework by applying standards set by a consensus of the TAs and the instructor.) It is your responsibility to make sure you can do all of the homework problems and to get the appropriate help in lecture during question time, in workshop sections, during TA help sessions or instructor office hours. No late homework will be accepted.
For ``paper-based'' problem sets, you may and are encouraged to
consult with each other and work in groups on homework; however, each
student is expected to turn in his or her own work. The completed
homework paper assignments are to be placed in the locker labeled P122 located on the east side of the 1
floor of B&L
outside room 106.
Solutions will also be available on reserve in the Physics and
Astronomy library on the 3
floor of B&L. You may pick up
your graded paper homework from a homework box outside of my office.
