first day of class is Monday, May 13; the last day is Wednesday, July 31. We will not have class
Monday, May 27; Thursday, July 4; and Wed, July 24.
Text: The textbook is Calculus, by Varberg, Purcell, and Rigdon (9th Edition). The homework
will be out of the book, and I would strongly encourage reading the chapters.
Prerequisites: C or better in Math 1210 or equivalent.
Homework: Homework will be mostly from the book. There will be one assignment per week, due
each Monday. I will announce the problems in class, and post them to the course website.
Quizzes:: There will be a 10 minute quiz each Thursday (unless there is a midterm). I will drop
your lowest two quiz scores.
Midterms: There will be 2 one hour midterm exams on Thursday, June 6 and Wednesday, July 3.
Final: The final exam will be comprehensive and will take place Friday, August 2, 12:30 - 14:30,
in our usual room.
Calculators: No calculators of any kind will be allowed on quizzes or exams.
Grading: Grades will be available to view on Canvas. Please check to make sure your grades are
accurately entered, and hold on to graded assignments at least until you verify that Canvas shows
the correct grade. Let me know as soon as possible if you spot a mistake. The final grades will be
calculated as follows: quizzes: 15%, homework: 15%, midterms: 40%, and final: 30%. I will use
the normal grading scale: 93-100 is an A, 90-92 A-, 87-89 B+, 83-86 B, 80-82 B-, etc. Depending
what the class grades look like at the end of the semester, I may curve them. Grades could only
improve after the curve.
