***PREREQUISITE: Math 109 or permission.

TEXTS: Required: Calculus 4th Edition by James Stewart.(Brooks/Cole, 1999)

Excerpts from Sensible Calculus

Catalog Description: Logarithmic and exponential functions, inverse trigonometric functions, techniques of integration, infinite sequences and series, conic sections, polar coordinates.
SCOPE: This course will deal with a continuation of the theory and application of what is often described as "integral calculus" as well as the calculus of infinite series. These are contained primarily in Chapters 7 through 11 of Stewart. Supplementary notes and text will be provided as appropriate.
TESTS AND ASSIGNMENTS: There will be several tests in this course. There will be several reality check quizzes and cooperative problem assignments, and two midterm exams.

Homework assignments are made regularly and should be passed in on the due date.

Homework is graded Acceptable/Unacceptable with problems to be redone. Redone work should be returned for grading promptly.

***Exams will be announced at least one week in advance.***

THE FINAL EXAMINATION WILL ON AUGUST 9th, 12:00 to 1:50.
The final exam will be comprehensive, covering the entire semester.
MAKE-UP TESTS WILL NOT BE GIVEN EXCEPT FOR VERY SPECIAL CIRCUMSTANCES!
It is the student's responsibility to request a makeup promptly.

*** DAILY ATTENDANCE SHOULD BE A HABIT! ***

Partnership Activities: Every two weeks your partnership will be asked to submit a summary of what we have covered in class. (No more than two sides of a paper.) These may be organized in any way you find useful but should not be a copy of your class notes. I will read and correct these before returning them. Partners will receive corrected photocopies.

Your summaries will be allowed as references at the final examination only.

Each week partnerships will submit a response to the "problem/activity of the week." These problems will be special problems distributed in class (and on this web page) or selected starred problems from the assignment lists.

All cooperative problem work will be graded 5 for well done; 4 for OK; 3 for acceptable; or 1 for unacceptable; and will be used together with participation in writing summaries in determining the 80 points allocated for cooperative assignments.

GRADES: Final grades will be determined taking into consideration the quality of work done in the course as evidenced primarily from the accumulation of points from tests, various individual and cooperative assignments.
The final examination will be be worth either 200 or 300 points determined by the following rule:

The final grade will use the score that maximizes the average for the term based on all possible points.

2 Midterm exams	200 points
Homework	50 points
Reality Quizzes	100 points
Cooperative work	50 points
Final exam	200/300 points
TOTAL	600/700 points

The total points available for the semester is either 600 or 700. Notice that 200 of these points are not from examinations, so regular participation is essential to forming a good foundation for your grades as well as your learning.

MORE THAN 3 ABSENCES MAY LOWER THE FINAL GRADE FOR POOR ATTENDANCE.

See the course schedule for the dates related to the following

See the summer course list for a full list of relevant days.

Technology: The computer or a graphing calculator can be used for many problems.

We will use Winplot. Winplot is freeware and may be downloaded from Rick Parris's website or directly from one of these links for Winplot1or Winplot2. This software is small enough to fit on a 3.5" disc and can be used on any Windows PC on campus. You can find introductions to Winplot on the web.

Graphing Calculators: Graphing calculators are welcome and highly recommended. Most graphing calculators will be able to do much of this course's work. I may use the HP48G for some in-class work but will generally use Winplot. HP48G's will be available for students to borrow for the term through me by arrangement with the Math department. Supplementary materials will be distributed if needed. If you would like to purchase one or have one already, let me know.
I will try to help you with your own technology during the optional "5th hour"s, or by appointment (not in class). Students wishing help with any graphing calculator should plan to bring their calculator manual with them to class..

Optional "5th hour"s: Many students find the second semester of calculus difficult because of weakness in their Calculus I and pre-calculus background skills and concept. A grade of C in Math 109 might indicate this kind of weakness. Difficulties that might have been ignored or passed over in previous courses can be a major reason for why things don't make sense now. I will organize and support additional time with small (or larger) groups of students for whom some additional work on these background areas may improve their understanding of coursework. Later in the semester optional hours will be available to discuss routine problems from homework and reality check quizzes as well as using technology. These sessions should be especially useful for students having difficulty with the work and wishing to improve through a steady approach to mastering skills and concepts.
