Hi.

--- About Today's class & Friday's Quiz -------

* Attached is a pdf file on polynomial and rational functions used in class today. It is 
poly.rat.pdf and also linked at: 
https://www.mathnstuff.com/math/spoken/here/2class/300/fx/poly.rat.pdf

* When you study for Friday's quiz, be sure to look at the class notes for this and last
week and this pdf.

* YOU WILL BE REQUIRED to print the page(s) of the quiz AND handwrite/draw (not 
type or use technology) the answers/replies to questions ON THE PAPER ON WHICH 
THE QUZ IS WRITTEN.  This means you must download, print, write answers on the 
printed sheet(s), scan or take a picture of your quiz, rename it as described on the 
first day of class and https://www.mathnstuff.com/math/mcc/QZ/qz.htm and ATTACH it,
and email it to the correct email address, the one for your class.  In test conditions, 
points will be taken off for each of these actions  and on a quiz if any of these things 
is not done correctly, you can earn at most 1 of 2 points.

---  About Grades  ------

* Your test grades and average of Test1 and Test2 grades are posted on Canvas.

* You already have a graded copy of each test and quiz.

* Don't email me or pink box me asking for a grade or for your average.  When the tests 
are graded they are returned and the test grade is posted on Canvas.  

* Quiz grades are not posted on Canvas until the end of the semester because that's 
when the quizzes are completed.

* If you question a grade, REQUEST AN OFFICE HOUR WITH A SPECIFIC TIME AND 
DATE as listed on my schedule below the pink box.


--- About Testing  --------

* If you do not put the entire correct title on each test paper, points are deducted from 
your score.
	Like: ##.First.Last.Code.p1 

* For the next tests and the final I WILL NOT GRADE a paper/sheet if it does not have a title.

* I repeat, YOU WILL BE REQUIRED to print the page(s) of the quiz AND handwrite/draw (not 
type or use technology) the answers/replies to questions ON THE PAPER ON WHICH THE 
QUIZ IS WRITTEN.  This means you must download, print, write answers on the printed sheet(s), 
scan or take a picture of your quiz, rename it as described on the first day of class and 
https://www.mathnstuff.com/math/mcc/QZ/qz.htm and ATTACH it, and email it to the correct 
email address, the one for your class.  In test conditions, points will be taken off for each of 
these actions  and on a quiz if any of these things is not done correctly, you can earn at most 
1 of 2 points.

* If the question says, "Show work," and you do not, "No work, no credit."


--- About Projects  ---

* Put your name just below the title.  Claim ownership of your material.

* Cite the source (usually as a footnote). Give ownership to the one who produced the work 
you depended upon.

* FILL/USE two full pages

* Pink box me a message if you have submitted something for me to read.  I don't go to your 
class mail boxes until Saturday morning or until I get a pink box saying something was submitted.

* I will not go to googledocs or outlook or wherever else to see your pdf file. AS STATED ON THE 
FIRST DAY,  ATTACH A CORRECTLY NAMAED FILE AND EMAIL IT TO THE CORRECT 
@mathnstuff.com address.

* Once your project request is approved, shoot for a prefect pdf file.  If it is not good enough, you 
either redo it or forget about the points for writing it and points for presenting the project.  

* Please, make your project worthy of the time of students in your class.  If you are in precalc, do 
not submit algebra content in your pdf, you will not be permitted to continue.  The same is true in 
calc I. Your info must be calc I level material.

* Be sure you project yourself as an expert worthy of classmate's time and credit from the prof.

* Do not produce a video until your pdf is approved.

* If your pdf file includes a problem for students to work on as you present, include and additional 
page with the HANDWRITTEN work and answer in your pdf file or an additional pdf file.

* If you are presenting in the yellow class on a Wednesday, I must have your approved pdf by 
Monday night.

* If you are making a video, post it, perhaps to youtube.  I do not have a facebook account so could 
not see or grade it. I believe Middlesex chooses not to send mp4 files.  You must post it and send 
to me the link to the video.  I may be able to help you with this, but you are better off watching 
someone else's video. Try:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hZB5Evox0ew or

Good luck and go with confidence.
