  • Once you are logged in to the OpenLab, Join this Course
    • Click “Course Profile” in the main menu above, then “Join this Course” from underneath the Avatar picture.

To-Do After Class

You have two assignments to complete in the coming days. The first is a discussion assignment, which you will complete here on the OpenLab (see the link below). The second is a written assignment consisting of homework problems from the book (the homework assignment should be completed on paper and submitted in the form of a scanned/photographed pdf document – see instructions below):

Discussion Assignment due Tues 9/1: Discussion 1 – Introductions & Mathography
Homework Due Thurs 9/3, 4pm: Sec 1.1 p.7: 1, 12, 19, 26, 29, 35  (Upload link)

Instructions for submitting your Homework assignment:

  • Take a picture of each written page of your assignment, and combine the pictures into a single pdf document.
  • Give the document a name that will help me identify it, for example: “JRodriguez-Class1Homework.pdf”
  • Use the upload link to upload your pdf (this link connects to a Dropbox folder, but you do NOT need to have a Dropbox account to use it).
