Revision as of 23:45, 9 January 2015

This schedule is tentative and may change slightly as the term progresses.

Not included on this schedule: There will be a weekly worksheet handed in during each tutorial session, starting during the second week of class. Pre-lecture WeBWorK assignments will be due before each lecture and a post-lecture assignment will be due each week.

Regarding textbook references below: These references are to Boyce and DiPrima (from last year). I will start add corresponding refs to the new textbook (Diffy Qs).
