Homework Assignments and Exams

 

All Homework Assignments: Assigned 8/23

All of your homework assignments for the semester are posted on MyStatLab. You may complete the assignments ahead of time, but I will not accept late assignments. For each chapter, I require you to study, and will quiz you on, all of the material in the chapter, regardless of whether or not I cover the material in class.

 

Assignment #1: Assigned 8/23, Due 8/27

Your assignments for this course will be on MyStatLab. Register for MyStatLab as soon as possible. The course code is davies73405. A registration key comes packaged with your text. It is your responsibility to register and familiarize yourself with the software by 8/27. Starting on 8/27, I will begin posting assignments. The inability to initialize your account, to log on to the system, to operate the software, and to monitor the site for assignments are not acceptable reasons for missing an assignment deadline. I will make no allowances for network outages. If you wait until the last moment to complete an assignment and then encounter a network outage or computer failure, the fundamental problem was procrastination, not hardware failure.
