MATH-1100-ES33

Welcome to the home page for section ES33 of MATH-1100 (Intermediate Algebra) at Southeast Community College in the Spring term of 2012. I am Toby Bartels, the instructor.

Administration

Here are some useful links for the administration of the course:

Contact information (to get in touch with me);
Tutoring information (for outside help);
Grading (how the class is graded);
Schedule (the material that we'll cover);
Downloading help (if you have trouble reading some of the files here);
Your current grade (on Moodle, where you must log in).

Assignments

If you miss a homework assignment, then you can find it here. Eventually the solutions to most quizzes and exams will show up here too.

Attendance (taken every day);
Homework (assigned nearly every day);
Quizzes (given nearly every day);
Exams (April 30 and June 4).

Although only quizzes and exams contribute directly to your grade, attendance and homework are also important.

Resources

The official textbook for the course is the Second Edition of Elementary & Intermediate Algebra published by Prentice-Hall (Pearson). You should be able to get this at the bookstore, and the homework problems will come from it.

I also have some notes for lectures, hand-outs, and so forth. If you missed class, then you might be able to find a substitute here. But there is no guarantee that everything will show up!
