Gradescope Homework

Homework assignments are posted to Canvas. The homework will be submitted directly to Gradescope by the students. The Due Dates can be found in the Calendar!

Gradescope Login:   Log into Gradescope using the "Gradescope" link in Canvas.

The name of our Gradescope course is "MATH20D_FA20_A00". All students enrolled in the course are automatically enrolled in this Gradescope course. (But make sure to access Gradescope using the link in Canvas.)

You will submit your own homework assignments in this course. A video demonstrating the submission process can be found at the following link:   https://gradescope.com/get_started#student-submission

Guidelines for submission through Gradescope:

  • You may type your homework (using LaTeX, for example) and save your file as a PDF, or you may write your solutions using a tablet device. But you have to make sure that whatever you upload is clear to read. No points will be given to blurring pictures or unrecognizable handwriting!
  • Gradescope will ask you to match each of the exercises with the page on which your solution for that exercise appears.
  • For more information, watch the Gradescope tutorial video: https://gradescope.com/get_started#student-submission

Due Dates:   All homework is due at 11:59 pm. You will lose 2 points if the homework is submitted within 10 minutes after the deadline. No submission is accepted after 00:10 am (the next day).

Homework Score:   Each homework worths 12 points. Only a portion of the problems will be graded. Though the total possible points is 60, the maximum homework score is 50 points. For example, if you get 52 points in total, then you have full scores in the homework portion.


Textbook Homework

These assignments will not be turned in and will be not graded; however, certain exam questions are based on textbook homework problems, so understanding the solutions to these problems should help you perform better on the exams.
