Homework


Gradescope Homework

Homework assignments will be posted to Canvas throughout the quarter. The homework will be submitted directly to Gradescope by the students.

Gradescope Login:   Log into Gradescope using the "Gradescope" link in Canvas.

The name of our Gradescope course is "MATH20D_FA19_A00". All students enrolled in the course are automatically enrolled in this Gradescope course. (But make sure to access Gradescope using the link in Canvas.)

You will submit your own homework assignments in this course. A video demonstrating the submission process can be found at the following link:   https://gradescope.com/get_started#student-submission

Guidelines for submission through Gradescope:

  • Submissions must be PDF files.
  • If your homework is handwritten, you must upload a scanned document.
  • You may type your homework (using LaTeX, for example) and save your file as a PDF.
  • You may write your solutions using a tablet device.
  • All homework is due at 11:00 P.M.
  • Gradescope will ask you to match each of the exercises with the page on which your solution for that exercise appears.
  • For more information, watch the Gradescope tutorial video: https://gradescope.com/get_started#student-submission

Due Dates:   All homework is due at 11:00 P.M. We will allow the first homework (only) to be submitted up to two days late. This is to allow for the fact that students may be unfamiliar with the system and may experience some technical issues during the first submission. But this is a one-time only rule. After the first homework, no homework will be accepted late.


Textbook Homework

These assignments will not be turned in and will be not graded; however, certain exam questions are based on textbook homework problems, so understanding the solutions to these problems should help you perform better on the exams. This page is subject to revision during the term. Please check regularly for updates. (Last updated 09 Oct 2019)
