LEARNING RESOURCES  

Lectures
Attend lectures regularly! Concentrate and follow lectures, take notes, and fix them later (how?). Ask questions, respond to questions from the instructor, discuss material with a colleague.
For each section that is covered in class:

** study solved examples from the textbook ... don't just read through a solution! Hide the solution, work on your own; if you get stuck, first understand why you got stuck, i.e., what's the problem. Only then look at the solution in the book to see how that problem was resolved. If you just read through a solved example, most probably you will miss the point. of the exercise/example; when you encounter similar situation, you will not know what to do.

** work on suggested practice questions (listed under the SCHEDULE + HOMEWORK link on our website); do as many as you need in order to feel that you know the material; mark the exercises that you are not certain about, or do not understand, discuss these with your colleagues and/or with your TA

** work on Childsmath assignments; suggestion 1: write full solutions for each childsmath assignment in your notebook, as well as submitting the final answers in childsmath - this will be really helpful when you go back to study your assignments for your tests and exam! suggestion 2: work on these assignments regularly (plan to solve several questions each day) rather than trying to complete an assignment all in one sitting
