IMPORTANT:
1. Note
that some weeks, a particular lab section may meet on
a day that would make it more useful for
students to review
for an exam than to go over new material. We will all work together to accommodate
such situations in a way that optimizes your ability to master the material
in an overall sense.
2. If
your lab does not meet on a particular week due to the academic calendar, you
still need to complete
these homework assignments and hand them in the subsequent week. In such
instances, you may attend
a
different lab section, see the TAs or Professor for help, or simply base your
work on your reading and
on
notes from class.
