Revision as of 23:46, 1 January 2016

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 (an unofficial hardcopy textbook) and Diffy Qs (the official online textbook).
