Homework is an important part of learning mathematics and you need to schedule time for homework every day.Assignments will be made frequently, collected, corrected and returned. A very minimal point value will be assigned to assignments from the text. Assignments not from the text will be graded and will carry much higher point values.
The problems that I assign total up to less than I believe you need to do as part of your studies for the course.
You will need to work more problems to develop skill and understanding.
Submissions must be neat.
Homework is due at the start of class on the due date. Indeed, homework will be accepted only at the start of class.
Late homework may be checked, may be given points (but not checked), or not regarded at all. Late homework papers may even be lost. The checking regime will usually always handle current work first, moving on to late work only if time and energy permit. Thus, if you get behind, it's best to work on current assignments first and then backwards through your backlog as your time and energy permit.
