The notecard and study skills assignment due in class September 10, 2009.

1) Notecard assignment: I will give you a 4 x 6 notecard in class. I want you to fill the card out with the following information.
  1. Your full printed name, your course and section
  2. What you like to be called
  3. Your email
  4. Your phone number
  5. Your signature
  6. Your major
  7. How much time you expect to devote to this course each week outside of lecture
  8. Your expected course grade
  9. The names and email addresses and/or phone numbers of 3 other students in our course. Keep a copy of these for yourself in case you miss class.
  10. Tell me about something you have accomplished, that you had to work for, that you are proud of. I enjoy reading these. I also want you to think about this answer if you are struggling in my class -- remember, you did this, no math problem is going to hold you back!
  11. Either on the front or on the back of the notecard, not covering the rest of the material you provided on it, securely (no paperclips) attach a small photograph of yourself. If you are not willing to sacrifice a photograph, you may photocopy the picture on your student ID.
This assignment will count as a homework grade. To get full credit for your notecard you must
2) Study Skills Assignment: Read my essay on Success at Math, look over your first day handout and the website I have created for the course. If you have any feedback for me on the course so far, I would be glad to receive it. Please come talk to me or send me an email!
