Text: Integrated Calculus, by Taalman.


Class Structure: Most of each class will be occupied by lecture. There will be time in each class for a ``lab session'', where you will be able to ask questions about homework, notes, or the book. My lectures will be based on the topics in the book, but I will not restate their account of the material. Rather, I will give a complimentary development with the expectation that you will read the text as we progress in class.

Course Grade

Contributing to your final average will be:

   1) weekly quizzes (only the best 10 quiz grades will count) - 10%
   2) three tests (the lowest test grade will have the lowest weight) - 20+20+15=55%
   3) the final examination - 35%

The final course grade will be determined according to the following table:

93-100 -- A
  90-92 -- A-
  85-89 -- B+
  80-84 -- B
  75-79 -- B-
  70-74 -- C+
  65-69 -- C
  60-64 -- C-
  56-59 -- D+
  53-55 -- D
  50-52 -- D-
    0-49 -- F

There will be no curve in this class so that failure of your classmates should not make you happy.

There will be no makeup tests/quizzes; if you are forced to miss a test/quiz, an excuse from your doctor or other appropriate authorities must be presented. If the excuse is accepted, then your remaining tests/quizzes will be counted more heavily in computing the final grade.
No calculators will be allowed on quizzes and tests.

Homework

Homework will be assigned, but not collected. However, many homework problems, with or without slight modifications, will appear in quizzes and tests (so will the examples that I work on in my lectures and the examples solved in the textbook). Thus, it is absolutely imperative to work on each of the assigned problems, to attend all the classes and to read the textbook.
