I mentioned this in class but we're going to try something new for
the on-line<br>
homework. I've opened the tutorials for 17.4-17.6. They will be
worth points.<br>
There's 11 questions worth differing numbers of points, from 1-3
pts. This<br>
varies with difficulty and number of parts to the question (more
parts and<br>
higher difficulty level is worth more points). They have hints and
feedback.<br>
You will lose 2% for asking for a hint. You really want to try to
answer questions<br>
w/o hints. On the other hand if you need a hint it costs very
little.<br>
<br>
You should do them as you're reading the sections and doing homework
for the<br>
sections. Again, you can do the book problems before these or use
these to help<br>
understand things and then do book problems.<br>
<br>
The questions are set up in order of the sections:<br>
<br>
Section Questions<br>
17.4 1-3<br>
17.5 4-8<br>
17.6 9-11<br>
<br>
The <font color="#ff0000">due date for these will be Wed., July 11,
11:59 PM</font>, the day before the quiz<br>
covering this material.<br>
<br>
There are still review problems you should do the day before the
quiz. I cut back on<br>
the number of these. These are <font color="#ff0000">due by 8 AM,
Thursday, 7/12</font>.<br>
<br>
These on-line tutorials and review problems will not likely suffice
to get a good<br>
understanding of the material. You still need to do some of the
assigned problems<br>
from the book.<br>
