Suggested Study Habits
- As you are reading the textbook or preparing homework assignments,
make a note of anything you don't understand and ask about it in class.
- Take notes during class. After class, review your notes and rewrite
them if necessary to fill in any missing details. If you don't understand a
concept, question me about it during the next class or during my office hours.
- As you start each chapter of the textbook, read "Chapter Openers" to begin
to develop an understanding of what you'll learn in the chapter.
- Read the assigned material in each section before it is covered in class.
After attending class, reread the assigned section to make sure that you
understand the material.
- Remember that learning calculus is a step-by-step process. Always keep
up with and complete your assignmnets because you must understand each topic in
order to learn the next one.
- When you are working problems for homework assignments, show every step in
your solution. Then, if you make an error, it will be easier for you to find it.
- Work the problems in the homework assignments as though you were practicing
for a test. First try to solve the problems with your book and your notebook closed.
- Study with another student or small group of students, especially when preparing
for a test.
- On the day of the test, allow yourselk plenty of time to get to the testing location.
- Review your tests carefully, making sure you understand where and how you made errors.
- If you are having a problem, be sure to take advantage of my office hours, Math Lab
tutoring hours for extra help.
