Text:
Worldwide Integral Calculus with infinite
series by David B. Massey and
Worldwide Multivariable Calculus by
David B. Massey. Both texts are required. PDF and printed
versions available at:
http://www.centerofmathematics.com/wwcomstore/index.php
The PDF textbooks contain a link, at the beginning of each section, to one or more free video lectures, by Prof. Massey, on the contents of that section. The PDFs have hyperlinked Tables of Contents, Indices, and cross-references; you may need to activate the Forward and Back buttons in your PDF viewer to take full advantage of the hyperlinks.
The PDF textbook is $9.95. A paperback, printed, bound, gray-scale (a.k.a. black and white) textbook can be ordered online for $29.99.
It is absolutely NOT required that you purchase a printed textbook.
Homework and Quizzes: Homework will be assigned daily, but will not be collected. To make sure that students are keeping up with the homework, there will be a quiz at the beginning of class each Thursday (except for the week of each hour exam). Each quiz will consist of problems similar to those in the homework.
We will not be able to go over all homework problems in class, and even those that we do go over may not get worked out completely. Therefore, if you have a lot of questions on the homework, it will be essential for you to come to my office hours or make special appointments to see me.
In addition to the weekly quizzes, there will be two hour exams.
No Make-ups: If you miss a quiz for any reason, the next quiz in the sequence will be counted an extra time to replace the missing grade. If you miss an hour exam for any reason, your final exam grade will be counted as that exam grade as well.
Snow Days: If classes are canceled due to snow, or for other official reasons, any scheduled quiz or exam will occur on the next class meeting.
Grading: The course grade will be
determined as follows:
Final Exam: 40%
Midterm Exam: 40% (20% each)
Quizzes: 20% (The two lowest quiz grades will be dropped).
You will be graded on the following scale:
Total Average | Grade for Course |
---|---|
93-100 | A |
90-92 | A- |
87-89 | B+ |
83-86 | B |
80-82 | B- |
77-79 | C+ |
73-76 | C |
70-72 | C- |
67-69 | D+ |
63-66 | D |
60-62 | D- |
0-59 | F |
Travel Plans: It is NOT possible to change the scheduled time for the final exam. So, do not make your travel plans to conflict with the final exam schedule.
Additional Resources: The Mathematics Department Tutoring Center is in Room 540B, Nightingale Hall. Tutoring should begin there two weeks after the start of classes. The tentative schedule is 10am-9pm on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays; 10am-6pm on Thursdays; and 10am-1pm on Fridays. An appointment is necessary. If there is a discrepancy between how the tutors present material and how your instructor presents material, you should follow your instructor's presentation, but you should discuss the matter with your instructor.
The PDF textbook contains links at the beginning of each section to online full-length, free, video lectures on the contents of that section. These videos can also be accessed by going to http://www.centerofmath.org . In addition, there are video solution links for select exercises. If there is a discrepancy between how the videos present material and how your instructor presents material, you should follow your instructor's presentation, but you should discuss the matter with your instructor.
Issues with The Course/Instructor: If you have issues with this course and/or instructor which you are not comfortable discussing with your instructor, you should contact the course coordinator, Prof. Robert Lupi.
Academic Honesty: The university views academic dishonesty as one of the most serious offenses that a student can commit while in college and imposes appropriate sanctions on violations. Cheating on a quiz or exam will not be tolerated.
