Grading policy: Final grades will be determined on the basis
of the total numerical score achieved on exams, quizzes, and homework.
Relative weights are:
Final: | 35% of grade |
Hourly Exam 1: | 15% of grade |
Hourly Exam 2: | 15% of grade |
Hourly Exam 3: | 15% of grade |
Homework | 10% of grade |
Weekly Quizzes | 10% of grade |
Additionally, I will randomly and frequently ask students to do problems at the board.
Outline: We will cover chapters 7 (techniques of integration),
11 (infinite sequences and series), 8 (arc length and area), and then 10
(parametric equations) of Stewart (in that order). In addition to the standard
concepts of calculus; I will place special emphasis on asymptotic analyses.
I contend that while much of elementary calculus can be done via computer
packages, asymptotic analysis is much more delicate. Similarly, local asymptotic
analyses are usually the key ingredients for building a global model.
