| About this course: You
will find this course to be very different from the more
computationally based courses at the 2000 level (like
Calculus). This course is meant to help the transition to
the more abstract, theoretical courses at the 4000 level
and above. Not only will you be expected to learn this
material at the computational level, but you will also be
studying the proofs of the theorems and learning to write
in a rigorous mathematical style. Because you will be
looking at mathematics at a much deeper level than you may
have in the past, this course will be very challenging.
You must never settle for just ending the right answer to
a question, you must make sure that you really understand
why that answer is correct, and then, you must strive to
communicate that understanding in a clear and concise way.

| Grading: | Homework/Quizzes:
10/5%
|
Tests: 45% (15% each) |
Final: 40% |
| For full credit, full work must always be shown. Any absence on a test day will result in a test grade of 0. It will be possible to make up for a missed test only if documented justification for the absence is provided. | |||
| Attendence policy: | The
official attendance policy of the university states: Students are expected to attend classes regularly. A student who incurs an excessive number of absences may be withdrawn from a class at the discretion of the professor (http://bulletin.uga.edu/bulletin/ind/attendance.html) In this class, we interpret "excessive" to mean four or more unexcused absences. |
