Q. How do I use Turnitin to submit assignments?

A. You have to first create your own user profile at http://www.turnitin.com. Your class ID is 1181999 and your password can be found on Blackboard. You will need this information to create your user profile. If you already have profiles with Turnitin, you can login and enroll in the class.

Once you click on the class name, you will be taken to your class home page, with a list of assignments. Next to the name of your assignment will be a submit button to the right. You can click on the submit button to submit your first paper.

Q. Are the exams open book or closed book?
Ans. The midterm and the final exams are closed book; however, you can bring in one 8.5x11 sheet, which can contain only formulas. You may write on one side of the paper only.  However, you may not staple several sheets of paper together.  Note, however, that going through your notes probably cannot make up for the lack of a proper understanding of the material.

Q. Can I do extra work to improve my grade?
Ans. Sorry. I believe that in order to be fair, I have to give every student the same opportunity to do extra work. Obviously, this is not feasible.  However, on occasion I will allow you to resubmit an assignment for grade improvement.


Q. What can I do to check my understanding of the material and to prepare for the exams?
Ans. 

  • You can do the problems from the end of each chapter.
  • You can try to answer the questions at the end of media articles.
  • You can read current newspaper and magazine articles on relevant topics and make up your own questions and articles.
