Get onto our piazza site. (Contact Margaret if you don't want to use your U. Illinois email address for this purpose.)
Most of you are already on our moodle site. If not, use the password given in lecture to self-enroll. (If you missed lecture, ask a friend or any member of the course staff.)
We'll be using gradescope for examlet grading. We'll enroll you automatically closer to the first examlet.
See the lectures page for Thursday's reading assignment and do the reqding quiz on moodle. Notice that reading quizzes are due late evening the day BEFORE each lecture.
Discussions are required and start this week. Get your discussion booklet at the Union Bookstore.
Examlets: start of class every Thursday, starting week 3. If you need special accommodations for exams, contact Margaret NOW. If you need extra time or quiet conditions, or anything that might be hard to do in the main lecture hall, you'll probably be doing your exams at the DRES testing center. Check out their web page for sign-up instructions. (They want you to sign up a week in advance.)
Homeworks and study resources
We covered highlights from sections 2.1-2.4. You should also read through the details more carefully on your own. We'll continue with chapter 2 on Thursday.
