Tips for success Do all assignments on time – late assignments will only be accepted in cases of documented emergency I will take assignments by (in a word document)/Canvas , but prefer paper copies Come to class every week! Students who came to class consistently scored (on average) 1 to 2 letter grades higher than those who did not. This is because class time is essential to grasping the material for most students. Get help early and often Individual tutors can be requested from the Learning Center. Additionally, drop in help is available at the Mathematics Center (HR 230) (see schedule for when a STAT tutor is available) Contact me or post your questions to the Unit Q&A Discussion Pay attention to the objectives (listed in each Chapter Lesson Materials page) – this is what you will be tested on. MyLab online homework will cover additional material, but your focus should be on the objectives. Slide 1- 4

Hybrid courses require Computer Literacy Comfort with independent learning Class time will not be spent lecturing on course material Significant time commitment outside of class If you are not spending a minimum of 8-10 hours a week on class material, you are not putting enough time into this course. 4+ hours for watching videos, reading textbook/powerpoints, and reviewing handouts 2 hours for trying practice problems 1-2 hours for online homework (Course Compass) 1-3 hours for hand-in homework and projects It is not too late to switch to a traditional class if you do not know if you can make this commitment Slide 1- 5
