Labs (1S%), anu BWWebWoik (1S%).

HOMEWORK: Due dates for the problems from the textbook will be announced in class and posted on
the course webpage http:math.la.asu.euu~uieteicouisesNAT27S_Regulai. The majority of the
assignments will be done using the online system WebWork. No late assignments will be accepted.

MATLAB LABS: MATLAB labs are especially important because they will help you develop skills to
use Matlab for simulations and they are worth a big part of the course grade. Attendance is essential in
order to pass the class. There will be six labs given in ECA 221. Please check the Blackboard LAB site
for more information about the MATLAB labs.

Exams: Two tests will be given during the semester in class (February 15 and March 28). The best
possible preparation for the exams is regular attendance and completion of all assignments and Matlab lab
reports. The tests will be open books and open notes.

Matlab Open Lab: the ECA 221 lab will be open on Mon. & Wed. 4:30-10:00 PM and Tu. & Th.
5:30-10:00 PM.

Course Policies: Students are responsible for the assigned material whether or not it is covered in class.
Students are responsible for the material covered in class whether or not it is in the text. Working
regularly on assigned problems and attending class are essential in order to do well. You are expected to
read the text before the material is covered in class. Make-up exams are at the discretion of the instructor
and only given in the case of verified medical or other emergency. The instructor must be notified before
the exam is given, if at all possible. E-mail your instructor and call the Mathematics Department Office
(480-965-3951) to leave a message.
If you bring cell phones and/or any other electronic equipment to our classroom, make sure it/they
is/are turned off before class begins. Any sounds produced by such devices are disruptive to the class and,
as such, will not be tolerated and will be reported to the Office of the Dean of Students.

In the Student Academic Integrity Policy manual, ASU defines Plagiarism [as] using
another's words, ideas, materials or work without properly acknowledging and
documenting the source. Students are responsible for knowing the rules governing the
use of another's work or materials and for acknowledging and documenting the source
appropriately. You can find this definition at:
http://www.asu.edu/studentaffairs/studentlife/judicial/academic_integrity.htm#definitions
Academic dishonesty, including inappropriate collaboration, will not be tolerated. There are
severe sanctions for cheating, plagiarizing and any other forms of dishonesty. $

Final Exam: http://students.asu.edu/final-exam-schedule - Spring has the final exam schedule for all
classes and will be strictly followed. If a conflict occurs, or a student has more than three exams in one
day, the instructor may be consulted about an individual schedule adjustment. If necessary, the matter
may be pursed further with the appropriate dean(s). This procedure applies to conflicts among any
combination of ASU campuses, and/or off campus classes. Except to resolve those situations described
below, no changes will be made in this schedule without prior approval of the Dean of CLAS. The final
exam is comprehensive and will be given in PSA SS 226 on April 30, 12:10 pm.
