tests. This is available at the bookstore for $10 or less.
Textbook:
Course Objectives: To enable the student to
 understand the fundamental concepts of integral calculus and infinite series;
 learn the most important techniques for calculating integrals;
 practice how to apply these techniques to model and solve various problems;
 use the computer mathematics software Maple as an aid in doing calculus computations.
Syllabus:

1. Each week you will have a lab assignment consisting of handwritten questions and Maple
questions (due in your lab section), and a WebAssign assignment (due on Sundays). In
addition, each student will be selected once during the term to present the solution to a
homework problem in their lab.
2. There will be additional practice problems assigned from the text. These are not to be
handed in or graded, but you are expected to work on as many of these as you can.
3. There will be two midterm tests. Your better one will be worth 20% of your final grade and
the other will be worth 10%. It is your responsibility to be present for these tests. No make up
tests will be given. If a test is missed for a valid reason (e.g. medical or compassionate
reasons, with documentation), the final exam will be weighted more heavily to compensate.
Travel or work are not acceptable excuses.
4. There is a three-hour comprehensive final exam during the final examination period from
April 9 to 24 (including possibly Saturdays and evenings). PLEASE NOTE THE DATE
AND TIME OF THE FINAL EXAM WHEN THESE ARE ANNOUNCED. FAILURE TO
WRITE THE FINAL EXAM AT THE SCHEDULED TIME OR FAILURE TO ATTAIN A
MARK OF AT LEAST 35% ON THE EXAM MAY RESULT IN A FAILING GRADE FOR
THE COURSE.
Tips:
You are responsible for getting the most out of your education. That means taking an active
approach to learning. You are expected to put in a significant amount of time outside of class
to study the course material. On the other hand, it is my job to do whatever I reasonably can
to help you learn. Make use of your most valuable resources and consult me or your TA
whenever you have any questions or difficulties with the course.
Do not allow yourself to fall behind, wishfully thinking you can catch up later. If you find you
are having difficulty keeping up, then do something about it immediately. See me or your TA
if you need extra help.
By its very nature, mathematics can only be learned by doing it. To be most effective, you
should: read ahead, attend lectures and labs, review your notes, and do all the practice
problems you possibly can! This may sound like a lot of work for each class, but it really
does make a difference.
Math Assistance Centre (UNC 201): This is a good place to go if you need extra help.

ACADEMIC INTEGRITY
The academic enterprise is founded on honesty, civility, and integrity. As members of this
enterprise, all students are expected to know, understand, and follow the codes of conduct
regarding academic integrity. At the most basic level, this means submitting only original work
done by you and acknowledging all sources of information or ideas and attributing them to
others as required. This also means you should not cheat, copy, or mislead others about what is
your work. Violations of academic integrity (i.e., misconduct) lead to the breakdown of the
academic enterprise, and therefore serious consequences arise and harsh sanctions are
imposed. For example, incidences of plagiarism or cheating may result in a mark of zero on the
assignment or exam and more serious consequences may apply if the matter is referred to the
President’s Advisory Committee on Student Discipline. Careful records are kept in order to
monitor and prevent recurrences.
A more detailed description of academic integrity, including the policies and procedures, may be
found at: http://okanagan.students.ubc.ca/calendar/index.cfm?tree=3,54,111,0
If you have any questions about how academic integrity applies to this course, please consult
with your professor.

DISABILITY SERVICES
If you require disability-related accommodations to meet the course objectives, please contact
the Coordinator of Disability Resources located in the Student Development and Advising area
of the student services building. For more information about Disability Resources or academic
accommodations, please visit the website

EQUITY, HUMAN RIGHTS, DISCRIMINATION AND HARASSMENT
UBC Okanagan is a place where every student, staff and faculty member should be able to study
and work in an environment that is free from human rights based discrimination and harassment.
If you require assistance related to an issue of equity, discrimination or harassment, please
contact the Equity Office, your administrative head of unit, and/or your unit’s equity
representative.
