Mathematics 221-02
Calculus III
Syllabus

        The FINAL EXAM is Friday, May 5, 3:00 P.M. - 6:00 P.M. (the official time for mathematics finals at this level), in JONES 204 (across from The Tilton Library).

        Latest Homework for Friday, April 21: handed out in class on April 7.

        There will be one additional test, covering Sections 30 through 44, on Monday, April 24. This will in effect duplicate Test 3; if you take both tests I will keep only the highest of the two scores.

        This course covers all seven chapters of our textbook, Multivariable Calculus, a Geometric Approach, by Beatrous and Curjel: functions, derivatives, and integrals, all joyfully done with vectors.

        Like Calculus I and II, Calculus III is a lot of work. Like a great man in the previous century I promise you nothing but blood, toil, tears, and sweat, but, with enough toil and sweat, exams will not bring you to tears, and the blood you shed will be that of partial derivatives and multiple integrals, not your own. Your best strategy is to work problems for 2 or 3 hours after each lecture. Surely you have learned by now that mathematics is not learned by cramming at the last minute.

        Abundant homework will be assigned weekly, turned in on Friday (the day after lab), and returned during the next lab.

        Three tests will be given in class. The dates for these tests will be announced in class. Likely test dates are Feb. 10; Mar. 17; Apr. 7. No test score will be dropped. A doctor's note will be required for absences due to medical emergencies. Other excuses for absences will be dealt with on an individual basis, depending on when the firing squad's available. No make-up exams will be given; missing exams (with valid excuses) will be made up by giving additional weight to the other exams or to the final.

        All daytime 100-200 level math courses, including MATH 221, have final exams at a single time: Friday, May 5, 3:00 P.M. to 6:00 P.M. The place of this year's final exam will be announced in class, hopefully before the semester ends. All students, including University College students, are expected to take this final.

        Homework, three tests, and the final exam determine your grade for the class, as follows:

 

Three tests 45% Homework 15% Final Exam  40% Total           100%

The average of your three letter grades on tests is a good predictor of your grade for the class, though the latter is likely to be a bit higher.
