Other		OTHERS: 1. Studying HW problems are very important in order to understand class subjects. Exams will also evaluate how much you studied and understood HW. Deadline of homework will be announced by the lecturer. 2. Pop-quizzes are performed at any time during the classes (quizzes will include all the subjects that have covered). 3. Please come to the class no later than the lecture begins. 4. For all class activities, cheating and plagiarism will not be tolerated. If you are caught cheating or plagiarizing in any form, you will receive a failing grade for the course and be reported to the university for appropriate disciplinary action. 5. If the lecture cannot be held, it will be compensated. 6. Follow ninova for all class announcements. 7. Bring the textbook, your notes, a calculator and a ruler for every class. We may have an in-class assignment or a quiz and these may be necessary.
