Required Text Calculus Sixth Edition by Larson Hostetler and Edwards Course description The topics covered in this course include elements of analytic geometry, limit theory, continuity of the derivative and its applications, the antiderivative, the definite integral, the fundamental theorem of calculus, properties of the integral and area. Prerequisite A grade of C or better in Math 104 (Trigonometry) or an equivalent class, or a satisfactory score on the Mathematics assessment. Grading Policy Your letter grade will be based on your percentage of possible points. A 90 -- 100% C 70 -- 79% B 80 -- 89% D 60 -- 69% Homework: ........................................ 150 points Midterm 1: Oct. 4 ..................... .....150 points Midterm 2: Nov 1................................ 150 points Midterm 3: Nov 28 .................. 150 points Project: Nov 21....................................50 Points Final Exam: Dec 3, 8:00 to 9:50 AM 350 points
Exam Policy Students are to bring calculators, pencils or pens, and paper to each exam. Grading will based on the progress towards the final answer, and the demonstration of understanding of the concept that is being tested, therefore, work must be shown in detail. Any student who cannot make it to an exam may elect to take the exam up to two days before the exam is scheduled. If all homework is completed and no more than three homework assignments are counted late, then the midterm with the lowest score will be dropped. Homework Policy Homework will be turned in at the end of class on the date due. If a student has additional questions, that student may see me after class in my office and then turn in the homework by 5:00 PM on the date due. Homework that is turned in within one week of the due date will be counted as half credit. Homework may be turned later than one week after the due date, but points will not be awarded. At the beginning of each class, a 2 to 5 minute quiz will be given. Each quiz will count as 20% of the homework assignment and cannot be made up unless there is a medical excuse. Extra Credit Any student who has turned in every homework assignment may elect to work on an extra credit assignment or project that will count as additional points towards either a midterm or the final. Project The project involves investigating an application of Differential calculus. The write-up of the project must be more than two pages (typed). You may write any equation by hand. You are encouraged to have Math View assist you in the project. You are also encouraged to work on the project in coordination with a non-math course that you are currently taking. You may work on the project in groups and if you choose to turn in a group project, the write up should be more than 1 + n pages where n is the number of individuals in your group. Learning Disabilities If you have a learning disability, be sure to discuss it with Larry. Learning disabilities will be accommodated.
