Course Time and Place:  Mondays and Wednesdays   2:30pm - 4:25pm   in 1S-107

Textbook:  Jon Rogawski, Calculus: Early Transcendentals, Second Edition, W. H. Freeman & Co. (2012)   ISBN-13: 978-1429208383     ISBN-10: 1429208384

Homework:  Answers to odd-numbered exercises are in the back of the book. I highly recommend working jointly on homework problems with fellow students. The homework problems in bold below have matching Webwork problems, which must be submitted online. To pass this course, the Webwork problems are the minimum requirement; to earn an excellent grade, you will have to do the other assigned problems in your textbook.

Webwork:  Webwork is a free online system that provides individualized homework problems, gives immediate feedback, and allows you to correct mistakes until the due date. Later, you can see detailed solutions online. Webwork is required in this course, and it is a major part of your grade. Webwork website

JULIA:  Computer-algebra software available free online and in the math computer labs. Five JULIA projects, with due dates listed below, are described in a JULIA projects webpage (look for Calculus II material).

Exams:  There will be two in-class exams, Exam 1 on Wednesday, October 15 and Exam 2 on Wednesday, November 26.

Grading:  The course grade will be determined as follows (subject to change announced in class):  30% Webwork, JULLIA, and quizzes + 40% Exams + 30% Final Exam.  Without exception, you must pass the exams to pass this course, and you must take the final exam at the time scheduled by the college.

Help:  My office hours are on Mondays and Wednesdays 11-12:15pm in my office, 1S-209. Also, free math tutoring is available.

How to Study:  (1.) Come to class (attendance is mandatory).  (2.) Read the relevant sections after class.  (3.) Do the homework. Leave time to think about it!  (4.) Come to my office hours or the help room with any remaining questions.  (5.) To study for a math exam, you must DO MORE PROBLEMS from past exams, homework and textbook.
