Textbook: Technical Calculus with Analytic Geometry, by A. J. Washington,
Addison-Wesley, 4th Ed.
Grading: We shall have three semester tests and a Final Exam. The composition of your course grade is as follows:
| Tests 1-3 | 300 pts (100 pts each) | |
| Quizzes | 100 pts (10 pts each) | |
| Final Exam | 200 pts | |
| Total | 600 pts |
| A | 540-600 | |
| B | 480-539 | |
| C | 420-479 | |
| D | 360-419 | |
| F | 0-359 |
Quizzes: Be prepared for short unannounced quizzes (1-2 problems, 10 minutes).
Homework will be assigned on a daily basis (see the schedule). It is required that you complete all homework. All quizzes and tests will be based on homework or similar problems.
Attendance is mandatory in this class.
Make-up exams are given only in cases of serious illness or extreme emergency that prevents you from taking a test at the specified time. You have to contact me before the test and communicate all circumstances. Furthermore, you must appear in person, with supporting documents, to discuss the situation as soon as possible.
No make-up quizzes will be given. Two lowest quiz grades will be dropped in the final grade calculation.
Calculator: You need a scientific calculator with trigonometric functions and their inverses for everyday study in this course. A graphing calculator is not required, but may be used at your preference. You can check out TI-83 or TI-83 Plus from the Department of Mathematics (MSCS 401) free of charge. However, no calculator is allowed on examinations and quizzes.
MLRC stands for the Mathematics Learning Resource Center located on the 4th floor of classroom building. There you can receive extensive tutoring help. Use MLRC services as much as you can.
University Syllabus Attachment contains information about drop/add, withdrawal deadlines, and other university policies. It is your responsibility to know and comply with all deadlines and policies.
Note: The homework problems below are to be assumed odd numbered, unless it is indicated otherwise.
