first day of class is Monday, January 6; the last day is Wednesday, April 23. We will not have class
Monday, January 20 or Monday, February 17. Spring break is March 9-16.
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 1220 or equivalent.
Homework: Homework will be mostly from the book. There will be one assignment per week, due
each Friday. I will announce the problems in class, and post them to the course website.
Quizzes: There will be a 10-minute quiz each Friday, starting the second week of class (unless
there is a midterm). I will drop your lowest two quiz scores.
Midterms: There will be 2 one-hour midterm exams on Friday, February 7 and Friday, March 21.
Final: The final exam will be comprehensive and will take place Wednesday, April 30, 13:00 - 15:00,
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.
