How often will homework be assigned and graded?

Homework will be assigned online. There will be one assignment
per section, and you will typically be given 3-5 days to complete the
assignment depending on the length of the section. Many sections
will take us a couple of days to cover, some five days. Opportunities
to work on and complete these online assignments will be given during
tutoring hours, and the library is always a good place to get your
homework done in the event that you are having computer/connectivity
issues at home. These online problems are graded on the spot and you will
always have multiple chances to work the problems if you are unable to
achieve a correct answer at first.

How important is it to do my homework?

VERY important! Completing daily homework assignments means you are
keeping up with and practicing the concepts learned in class. The better you
keep up with your homework, the better you'll feel about the class. Trust me!

How often will we be doing AP practice?

After the second six weeks, problem sets will be assigned on a regular basis.
These consist mostly of released Free Response Questions from old AP tests.
Very early on you will also be given multiple choice questions from released
tests. I promise you will feel comfortable with the types of questions you
will see on the big test.
