Welcome to Mr. Klein's (Math Dept., De Anza College) Website
Hi there! and welcome to my webpage. I have been a full-time math instructor at DAC for 20 years. I am also the Advisor to the Alpha Sigma Alpha Chapter of Phi Theta Kappa - the International Community College Honor (and Service) Society.
My Contact Information is at the bottom of this page.
For all classes:
•
• Please be certain to read the General Information
•
• Make certain you bring your text and other needed materials to all classes, even the first day's class.
•
• Your first mini-test will include information from the General Information page and the course syllabus, as well as the appropriate math content.
It is best to use blank (unlined, computer printout) paper for doing math, rather than loose-leaf paper. The thin blue lines of loose-leaf paper are confining when one has to write algebraic expressions that require lots of (vertical) space, such as algebraic fractions with exponents, etc. Writing on graph paper is even worse, unless you are actually making a graph.
It is your responsibility to read these documents ( this page / Gen. Info / Class Syllabus ) carefully, so that you fully understand how the course will be run, and certain expectations of you. All of these documents are considered the "Green Sheet" for the class. If you are unclear about anything, please do not hesitate to ask me.
From the links in the left column you will be able to download the syllabus for your Fall 2009 course, and you will also be able to access information about Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society (which is not to be confused with either the DAC Honors Program or the Honors Club)
Contact Info: Office: S-76g (located in small patio area between the E3 and S7 buildings, west side of campus)
Office Hours: 9:30 – 10:20 AM , Mon–Thurs
Phone: 408 864 8213
Email: kleincharles@fhda.edu
SPECIAL NOTE FOR SUMMER SESSION: The workload is doubled
each class day; thus anticipate that we cover TWO (sometimes THREE)
sections per day, and therefore anticipate spending 5 to 6 or more
hours per day, and also at least half that time per day on each
non-class day. (Yes, even the Fri-Sat-Sun weekend is valuable class
study time; forget the beach!)
