The lecture continues the Algebra I lecture from HS2023.
The new exercises will be posted here on Fridays. We expect you to look at the problems over the weekend and to prepare questions for the exercise class on Tuesday.
Please hand in your solutions by the following Friday at 12:00 in your assistant's box in HG J68 or per email. Your solutions will usually be corrected and returned in the following exercise class or, if not collected, returned to the box in HG J68.
Office hours will take place in the weeks after a new exercise sheet is posted, on Wednesdays at 16:15-18:00 (the first one being on the 28th of February) in HG F 5. There will be no office hours on 06.03., 17.04., 01.05. and 29.05.
The learning elements offered during the semester measure active participation in the exercises. From the second week of the semester onwards, 5 single-choice exercises are completed individually at the beginning of each lesson. Each correctly answered task is worth 1 point. The number of points n achieved in the semester is converted into a grade bonus of a maximum of 0.25 grade points using the formula max(0,min(1,(n-20)/25)) times 0.25. This bonus is added to the provisional grade from the examination without rounding; the result is rounded to the final grade.
