Required Materials
- Text: Applied Calculus by Hughes-Hallet, Gleason, Lock, Flath et al., Wiley, Third Edition, 2006
- Calculator: The TI-83+ graphics calculator by Texas Instruments. If you have some other TI graphing calculator you may use it- but I will use the TI-83+ in class (for this reason some students find it difficult to use a calculator other than the TI-83+). The TI-89 and TI-92 may not be used on quizzes and exams.
Homework
Homework will be assigned during each class period. It may happen that, at the beginning of the following class session, you will be quizzed on one or more of these assigned exercises. Be prepared! Note also that many exam questions will come from assigned homework problems.
Exams
There will be 3 one-hour (100 point) exams and a comprehensive (150 point) final exam. Make-up exams will be given only for university excused absences (you must tell me in advance if you will be unable to take an exam at the scheduled time). Your lowest exam score (of the first 3) will be dropped.
Quizzes
As mentioned above, numerous quizzes will be given. Quiz content is generally “easy” if you are current with class participation and homework. There is no makeup for missed quizzes (and none are dropped).
Course Outline
The following topics will be covered:
- Chapter 1 Functions and Change
- Chapter 2 Rate of Change: The Derivative
- Chapter 3 Shot-Cuts to Differentiation
- Chapter 4 Using the Derivative
- Chapter 5 Accumulated Change: The Definite Integral
- Chapter 6 Using the Definite Integral
- Chapter 7 Antiderivatives
- Chapter 9 Functions of several Variables
Grading Scale
( percent scores based on your total of quiz and exam points scored)
A 91-100
AB 89-90
B 81-88
BC 79-80
C 68-78
D 55-67
F 54 and below
Attendance
I will not keep a record of attendance. However, as mentioned above, missing class on a quiz day (which may be unannounced) , creates a zero which cannot be made up. The surest way to succeed in this class is to work hard and attend each session. The surest way to fail this class is to miss class.
