8/27: In Person Learning Today! Live Stream and/or Zoom Links Are On The Help Page - FINALIZED

You are encouraged to use my office hours (Zoom or in person) for help on the homework. However, you may not ask questions over homework on the day that the assignment is due.

Do NOT assume that any assignment beyond today's is correct! I often change them the day of class. When you see the word FINALIZED in the first line, I've reviewed the assignment, checked the links, and I'm reasonably confident that it will not change.

Reading Assignment Due Before Class On 8/29. There is nothing to turn in for reading assignments, but the material could appear on quizzes. Complete all of these readings before class on Friday!

* Read the course introduction (syllabus) at this link . This document contains information that you may need to know. Some of it could appear on an online quiz.
* Enroll in our section of this course in HawkesLearning. You should have an access code. If you have any trouble bring your access code to class tomorrow (Thursday)!
* Read the Carthage Academic Dishonesty Guidelines. There is a link at the top of this page.
* Read this page on free tutoring opportunities.
* Check the blog (see the link on the left side of this page) for updates. You should check the blog every day. I will provide homework hints, comments on how our class went, and more!
* Read this very short keys to success document.

Before you leave the classroom today, you will take this quiz. Do not take this quiz before I tell you to do so.

* While you are watching the videos or immediately after watching the videos, take this quiz. You should take this quiz before our next class! This will count as an online quiz.

Click on the link to Live Stream Links. For the remainder of this course, you will watch videos over the material before class so we can focus on topics that you found difficult.

* The Khan Academy can be a great study tool. I don't anticipate assigning any problems from that site, but if you want to use the site as a study or review tool, please create an account on Khan Academy. You can use your Carthage e-mail (Google) or your Facebook account as a login for Khan. Let me know right away if you have any difficulties. Then add me as a Coach. My coach ID is my e-mail address (my Carthage address with msnavely as the name). The class code is 5PDW2J. You do not need to create an account to view the optional videos.

* Here is a Khan Academy video on the point slope form.
* Here is a Khan Academy video using both the point slope form and the slope intercept form.
* Here is a Khan Academy video on factoring quadratic expressions, parts one and two.

I know this sounds silly, but please use the restroom before class.

This is a quiz. You may use a calculator, paper, and a writing utensil. That's all! NO PHONES ARE PERMITTED ON ANY QUIZ OR EXAM! If I see your phone at any time before you turn in your quiz, you will receive a 0 on this quiz. No excuses, no exceptions! Place your phone in a zippered pocket in your backpack and zip it shut or place your phone on the table at the front of the classroom. If you must use the restroom during the quiz, bring your phone to the front of the room and place it on the table before you leave the room.

During the quiz, you are not permitted to communicate with any human being by any means, including but not limited to, talking, phone conversations, text messages, email messages, hand signals, smoke signals, semaphore, Morse code, Norse code (used to communicate with Vikings), social media, antisocial media, or any other means that I've omitted.
