Student Response System Transmitters
Additional Information

Quizzes will be given throughout the lecture. The format is that the question will be posted, the student will be given 90 seconds or so to answer the multiple choice question with no help. If more than 50% of the students submit the correct answer, we move on. If less than 50% of the class submit the correct answer, then students talk about the question with their nearest neighbors and try to come to a consensus. Then the students have another chance to choose the correct answer. One percent of the grade will depend on the fraction of satisfactory responses given during the semester.

Policy on forgetting, misplacing, or loosing transmitters! This is important. No allowances will be given to students who, for whatever reason, do not use their transmitter in class. It is your responsibility to bring the transmitter to every class and maybe even to have extra batteries. If you loose your transmitter, you should obtain a new one ASAP and log in to the website address and give your new transmitter number. You should also report what happened to your professor. You will loose all credit in the meantime.

Policy on using someone else's transmitter. It will be considered an honor offense to use another student's transmitter in class. Any student who sees another student use two transmitters, for example, should challenge the student and report it as an honor offense.
