GRADING:
There
will be four or five one hour exams, each worth 100 points. There will be a comprehensive final worth
150-200 points. There also may be
scheduled in class or take home quizzes.
Grading will be based on the following percentages, although pluses or
minuses may also be used.
A 100
– 90
B 89 – 80
C 79 – 70
D 69 – 60
F 59 – 0
Course Outline:
Chapters 6 – 11 in Swokowski’s text, CALCULUS – The Classic Edition
Students will take exams and quizzes
as scheduled. See schedule for exams on my web page. Quiz dates will be
announced in class.
Academic
Honesty:
See policy in the Student Handbook
http://web.mnstate.edu/bring/AcademicDishonesty.htm
Calculators: No
graphing calculators can be used during exams or quizzes. A mathematical calculator with logarithmic, exponential,
trigonometric and inverse trigonometric functions
is required.
Please turn CELL PHONES OFF during
class.
Special Accommodation:
Students with disabilities who believe they may need an
accommodation in this class are encouraged to contact Greg Toutges,
Coordinator of Disability Services, at 477-2652 (phone) or 477-2047 (TTY), CMU 222 as soon as possible to ensure
that accommodations are implemented in a timely fashion.
Syllabus Addendum
on Flooding
Flooding this spring may disrupt normal class meetings. If so, the goal will be
to complete essential topics in sufficient depth for students to be given credit
for Calculus I and to ensure students are properly prepared for any course
having a prerequisite of Calculus I.
Missing less than one week will not create a serious problem. I have a priority
list of topics we should cover and that can still be accomplished. If more than
one week of classes is missed, students may need to study some topics on their
own. To prepare for this possibility, all students should print Labs 10-15 and
make certain they have a copy of my assignment sheet.
I
have added a link under my Math 261 menu titled “Flood Information.” This is
where I will inform you of sections you should study, problems you should work
on, and which labs, or parts of labs you are responsible for completing.
If classes are cancelled, I will be available for consultations through email.
Since I do not wish to assume everyone has specific software or scanners, you
may rely on email even though it is not designed for mathematical
communications. To help, we will use the following standard notations for
mathematical operations.
*=multiplication
Juxtaposition and grouping symbols, ( ), { },[ ], can also be used
/=division
^= exponentiation
Examples: 2*3=2(3)=(2)(3)=6,
(x+2)/3=
,
(x+1)^(2/3)=
On the other hand, if
you have a recent version of Office Word, it will have the mathematical symbols
used above.
