Prerequisites: Math C075 or C085 with a grade C or better or an equivalent transfer.
Textbook: Hughes-Hallett, Gleason, McCallum, "Calculus - Single Variable", 3rd edition.
Course Goals: To develop the skills required to solve problems in applied mathematics related to integral calculus and elementary differential equations.
Topics Covered: Topics include the notion of the definate integral as a summation, the definite integral as a limit and the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus. We will also cover techniques and applications of integration, such as trigonometric substitutions, integration by parts, and improper integrals. We will finish the course with a breif treatment of very elementary differential equations.
Course Grading: Two in class exams are worth 25%. The final examination is worth 30%. Your quiz/homework score will be worth 20%. Expect the quizzes to be daily after the first week, of which 3 will be dropped.
Exam Dates: Exams tentatively will be every two weeks. Exam 1 - July 14; Exam 2 - July 28; Final Exam - August 11.
Attendance Policy: Since quizzes will be daily, they will be used to track attendance. I expect you to show up for every class.
Any student who has a need for accommodation based on the impact of a disability should contact me privately to discuss the specific situation as soon as possible. Contact Disability Resources and Services at (215) 204-1280, 100 Ritter Annex, to coordinate reasonable accommodations for students with documented disabilities.
Freedom to teach and freedom to learn are inseparable facets of academic freedom. The University has adopted a policy on Student and Faculty Academic Rights and Responsibilities (Policy # 03.70.02) which can be accessed here.
Students will be charged for a course unless a withdrawal form is processed by a registration office of the University by the Drop/Add deadline date given below. For this semester, the crucial dates are as follows:
During the first two weeks of the fall or spring semester or summer sessions, students may withdraw from a course with no record of the class appearing on the transcript. In weeks three through nine of the fall or spring semester, or during weeks three and four of summer sessions, the student may withdraw with the advisor's permission. The course will be recorded on the transcript with the instructor's notation of "W," indicating that the student withdrew. After week nine of the fall or spring semester, or week four of summer sessions, students may not withdraw from courses. No student may withdraw from more than five courses during the duration of his/her studies to earn a bachelor's degree. A student may not withdraw from the same course more than once. Students who miss the final exam and do not make alternative arrangements before the grades are turned in will be graded F.
The grade I (an "incomplete") is reserved for extreme circumstances. It is necessary to have completed almost all of the course with a passing average and to file an incomplete contract specifying what is left for you to do. To be eligible for an I grade you need a good reason and you should have missed not more than 25% of the first nine weeks of classes. If approved by the Mathematics Department chair and the CST Dean's office, the incomplete contract must include a default grade that will be used in case the I grade is not resolved within 12 months.
