ATTENDANCE AND MAKE-UP TEST POLICIES
Class attendance is required in both the lecture and the lab/recitation components of this course. Students
with six unexcused absences will be dropped from the course. Make-up exams only with a valid excuse.
Unless you are physically in the emergency room as a patient around the time of the exam, prior notice is part
of the definition of “valid excuse.”
GRADING
Homework and in class work: 35% (twelve assignments, lowest two scores dropped)
Exams: 40% (four exams, lowest score dropped)
Comprehensive Final: 25%
Grades available online at http://learn.unt.edu
NOTES
 Attendance: As indicated above, attendance is mandatory. Students with six unexcused absences will
be administratively dropped from the class. There is no class, or an optional class on several Fridays
during the semester. These days are clearly indicated on the day-by-day schedule. “Optional” really
means optional – attendance will not be taken.
 Class meetings: The lecture portion of the course (Math 1720.020) meets MWF 2-2:50 in LIFE
A304. The lab/recitation sections of the course will meet in GAB 550 (a computer lab) on Tuesdays
and in CURY 211 (a classroom) on Thursdays.
A day-by-day schedule of activities and topics to be covered is provided. Any changes to this
schedule will be announced in class. Note that some Friday lectures are optional and some Fridays
there is no class.
 Homework: Doing homework is an integral part of learning calculus. Homework, together with the
in-class worksheets, constitutes 35% of the grade.
Homework assignments will count for 30% and in-class work for 5%. Homework assignments will
be due most Tuesdays. Each assignment will consist of two parts. One part will be graded by the
grader, the other part will be graded by the instructors. There will be twelve assignments total. The
lowest two scores will be dropped.
In-class work will be graded on a 0/1 scale, 0 if nothing is turned in, 1 otherwise.
 Exams: There will be four in-class exams, one over each chapter. Exams will count for 40% of the
grade. The lowest test score will be dropped.
 Final exam: There will be a comprehensive, in-class final on Monday, May 5 1:30-3:30 in LIFE
A304. The final will count for 25% of the grade.
 Academic enrichment: This class will include an academic enrichment component specifically
designed to reinforce successful work/study habits in math classes. The academic enrichment
component of the course will be part of the in-class work most Tuesdays.
 Textbook and MyMathLab: The textbook for the class is Calculus by W. M. Briggs and L.
Cochran. This text is required; either the printed or the online version is fine. A MyMathLab section
of this course is available in the “course content” section of the Math 1720.020 course page on
BlackBoard Learn. Sample homework problems will be provided for students who have access to
MyMathLab and want the extra practice.
