Please enroll yourself in the classes blackboard site. This way I can record your scores online. The course ID is TQS124A-Quinn. The search function on Blackboard doesn't seem to work well. I found it by selecting "Tacoma Academic Courses", "Interdisciplinary Arts & Science", "126-150" (at the bottom of the page), and scrolling down to the course. The access code is "math".

Welcome
Welcome to TQS 124. We will work hard to try and make sense of Calculus this quarter. Thanks to Dr. Horak for teaching the first day of class. I look forward to meeting everyone on Thursday morning. Success in Calculus depends on your ability to do the algebra after you set-up the problems. As a first assignment, please complete the four Diagnostic Tests A, B, C, and D on pages xxiv-xxviii of your text. These are self-scored precalculus and trigonometry tests. Record your score on each diagnostic by Tuesday, January 15. |
