Documentation Requirements.
Because communication is an integral part of mathematics, the PCC Mathematics Departments have certain requirements for how work should be written. You should become familiar with the Notation Standards, as they will help you earn full credit on your assignments. ALEKS works out examples using mathematical Notation Standards. Make sure to follow their example.
If you ever have questions about appropriate documentation, please talk to me in class or send me an email.
