                Reading the text: Each section of a text is read a number of times a) skimmed before class b) read after class c) referred to while doing homework d) reviewed before test and final e) referred back to for review of concepts used in later sections. Chapter Summaries, Review Chapters (7,17,22), and summaries in the front of the book are available for studying for tests.  The review chapters have summaries of the preceding chapters and Review and Supplementary Exercises. Use the index at the end of the book to locate definitions.

 

            Problems: Start the problems listed here immediately after the section is started in class. Check the “Apply your Knowledge” and  “Check your Skills” problems and the odd number exercises against the answers in the back of the book, and keep working on them until you can get that answer. You may refer to the student solution guide, or discuss the problems with your classmates or a tutor.  Test questions will be based on the odd number Exercises assigned here. The exercise to be handed in is shown for each chapter. You will be able to ask about a few homework problems at the beginning of each class.
