Each homework assignment consists of 4 problems that you should solve before the submission deadline.  You are encouraged to use an AI as a Socratic tutor when you work on these problems.  For suggestion please Using AI for in-class problems and assignments.  You will grade 3 of the problems yourself and submit your solution to one designated problem.  I will grade your submission.  If you used an AI tutor, submit a copy of your conversation with the AI.  I am not focusing on the final answer, I am focusing on your approach.  If you did not need any help or worked with another student, still explain your reasoning, do not just write down formulas. 

Assignments must be submitted on Canvas in on time. 

Most important hint for solving problems successfully:  Read the question!
Make sure you fully understand the scope of the problem and the conditions imposed.  Explore if approximations are reasonable or even required by the wording of the problem.

The homework assignments determine 50% of your grade for this class.  Please work them carefully and do not hesitate to ask questions if you get stuck.  Ask the instructor, an AI, or other students, but then produce your own solution to the problem.
