Maple Worksheets.
There will be short quizzes based on the homework from previous

There will be two one-hour Midterm Exams and one two-hour Final Exam.
Calculators are not allowed in the exams.

documented absence (such as hospitalization) the final may be weighted
to count for the missing exam. In the case of a missed exam, contact
the instructor as soon as possible.
Note: The homework is always immediately due, which means that it may
be the subject of the quiz of the next discussion session. The Maple
Worksheets (denoted as "WS") will be collected on the indicated due
date.
