Please, when you register, use your full first and last name, as they appear on the Classlist in D2L. If you use a maiden name or some made-up name, your work will not be recorded, and you will fail the course. I'm counting on the same name on WebAssign as I see on D2L and my roster. If I don't, I'll just kick you out as some stranger who sneaked in, somehow.

I think you'll be a lot better off using my help rather than their help, for the most part. They sometimes teach things in a way that will limit you, later. I avoid that, so that your foundations make the later work, a lot easier, faster, and more sound, in general. They're just trying to get you through one thing, in isolation. I'm coming from a bigger-picture perspective that has served most (not all) of my students well.

Midterm and Final Test are drawn from the type questions you encounter on WebAssign and especially on the Weekly Written Assignments.
