Grades:

Required Text Calculus Sixth Edition by Larson, Hostetler, and Edwards 

Course description The topics covered in this course include applications of the integral, techniques of integration, exponential and logarithmic functions, hyperbolic functions, and inverse trigonometric functions.

Prerequisite A grade of C or better in Math 105 or equivalent.

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: Jan 23.....................…..…......150 points

Midterm 2: Feb 13................................…150 points

Midterm 3: Mar 14.....................……..….150 points

Project: Mar 13.........................................75 Points

Final Exam: Mar 18............................…....325 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 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 Integral calculus that is an application of a course that your are taking or an interest that you have. The write-up of the project must be more than three pages (typed). You may write any equation by hand. You are encouraged to have Math View or Maple 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 2 + n pages where n is the number of individuals in your group. Your abstract is to be a one paragraph description of your project. Included in your abstract should be a set of references that you intend to use.

Registration

1. You must register for this class at the Office of Admissions and Records.

2. You may drop the class with no penalty or mark on your record on or before Friday, January 25.

3. After January 25, you may drop the class and receive a grade of W until Friday, March 1.

HOW TO SUCCEED IN A MATH CLASS

  1.  Come to every class meeting.
  2.  Arrive early, get yourself settled, spend a few minutes looking at your notes from the previous class meeting, and have   you materials ready when class starts.
  3.  Read each section before it is discussed in class
  4.  Do some math every day.
  5.  Start preparing for the tests at least a week in advance.
  6.  Spend about half of your study time working with your classmates.
  7.  Take advantage of tutors and office hours, extra help can make a big difference.
