My office phone number is 732-548-6000 x 3952 and it's in room BH200F in Billy Johnson Hall. My email is AAzzolino@middlesexcc.edu. My home phone number is 732-739-3951 . You may phone me at home or you may email me at home by using the message box on my semester web page. The class button (at the left), will link to the semester page. The page and my server will forward the message to me.

    Each class has a home page and graded assignments are required and are linked through the page.

    Algebra I students must be in the classroom before class begins and remain the entire class period. Once the door is closed no one is permitted to enter or leave the room.

    Algebra I students will take the final exam during the special final exam period AFTER the last day of class.

    Precalc students and Freshman Math students are required to take "perfect quizzes." Each is administered once in class. If a perfect paper is achieved, full credit is given for the quiz. If a perfect paper is not achieved, the student may come to my office to retake the quiz (at most one time a week) in an attempt to earn a perfect paper. If no perfect paper is achieved, no points are earned for that quiz.

    Precalc students are required to present a paper/project.

    All asssignments are to be handed in at the start of class. No assigment is to be handed in late.

    In this class, you will be talking and working with other students. One student called the class she took with me "the most user-friendly, interactive math class" she ever had. IF YOU ARE NOT AMIABLE TO ANY OF THE ABOVE CONCEPTS, DO NOT REMAIN IN THIS SECTION: SWITCH TO ANOTHER SECTION.

    It is your responsibility to learn the material. It is my responsibility to make the learning process as productive as possible. If you miss a class, check the course outline to determine what work you must do, read the material in the text, do the homework, phone if I can help or if I haven't seen you for a week. You don't need to phone or email me if you miss a class unless it's the day of a test. If you are just stuck on the homework or wish to discuss how you feel in class, phone or email me, or stop by my office.

    The pace of the course is determined by the math department's course outline. If you wish me to slow down, restate what I've just said, write it in symbols, write it in words, explain it in a different way, STOP ME and ask if I would do what you wish! I do have some flexibility in how the material is presented.

    Being a student is not an easy job. It is work. Plan time to attend class as well as time to work on the material outside class. If I can be of help, call me or see me in my office or after class.

    Have a good semester.
