Please check this page frequently. It is your responsibility to be informed on organizational changes about the courses.
The main idea of these courses is to give students both a theoretical and applied knowledge.
The first one will be done at an intuitive level, while the second one will be done at a more deep level by means of exercises both in class and at home.

Office Hours: I will hold office on Thursday between 1:30pm and 2:30pm.
If these hours are not convenient for a student, I would be glad to arrange different hours with her/him. In this case, please, contact me by e-mail.
Final evaluation: Students will be evaluated by means of daily in class quizzes that will contribute to the 20% of the final evaluation. Only the best 2/3 of in class quizzes will be considered for final evaluation.
A middle term and final exams will contribute respectively for 40% and 40% of the final evaluation. The date of the middle term exam will be communicate in class.
Attendance of classes is not compulsory and will not be part of the final evaluation. But be aware that the in class quizzes contribute to the evaluation for a 20%. If the student misses more that 1/3 of classes, then the number of her/his in class quizzes solved will be not sufficient for an evaluation and the grade for this part will be 0.
Grading system: Student will be evaluated according with the following rules. I expect all answers to be fully justified, unless otherwise noted.
Each of the problems will be graded on a scale from 0-4 that will correspond to different grading:
4 = A well-written solution with no errors.
3 = A well-written solution with slight errors.
2 = A good partial solution.
1 = A very partial solution or a good start.
0 = No work, a weak start, or an unsupported answer.
