Only HW this week -- finish designing problems for final exam (at least four)

Today in class, after the test, I explained an assignment where students (that means you!) go through all their notes and create at least four multiple choice problems. I asked that you divide the back of a notes sheet into four boxes, so that you have a grid in the background and so that each problem won't be too complicated or big.

Pick problems that you know you can do, on material that you enjoyed, or that you think might be a challenge to your classmates. Don't stop at just four; you can submit two or three pages (8-12 problems). Each problem of yours that I select to be on the final will win you extra credit applied toward your final exam grade.

If you have any questions, first ask your classmates; then, if they can't answer your questions, give me a call at the number provided on your syllabus.

You must have the problems completed and ready to turn in on Monday at the start of class -- so treat it like any other HW assignment.
