I strongly recommend, even though you are in the classroom lecture course, that you also do the assignments given to the distance students. These assignments are extremely good practice at all of the concepts in the course, and a good assessment of your understanding. I am always
happy to advise if you are unsure about a question. Do note that I always include a copy of the assignment itself in the email where I send tips, so those of you not in distance can also take a look.
