Course Calendar
Following is a table of the lessons you must complete and the dates. The due date for each lesson is the last day of that week. The lessons won't disappear after that, so you can keep working on them. However, a significant part of your grade is earned by staying caught up. It is fine for you to go faster than this calendar indicates. A test will be made available to you early as soon as you complete the required material.
You must do the lessons strictly in the order given here because each lesson depends on using knowledge from the sections before it. In the software, you are required to score at least 80 on each online homework lesson to advance to the next software lesson or software quiz.
All the sections listed have BOTH online homework and paper homework, all the quizzes are only online, and all the items called Test Review or Chapter Review have only paper homework.
