Welcome to Calculus II.  In this course we will continue the study of the calculus of one variable begun in Calculus I.  We examine methods of integration (symbolic and approximate), some applications of integration, and finally study the way infinite series are used to approximate functions.

 

Your grade in this course will be based on two exams (30% each), 5 quizzes (5% each), and 3 computer lab assignments (5% each).

HONOR CODE:  The EXAMS will be closed book, notes and colleagues.  The QUIZZES are open book and notes, but you may only speak to me.  The LABS are open book and open notes; you will work with a partner in doing your write-up. 

 

ATTENDANCE:  You are expected to attend class.  Two unexcused absences result in lowering of your course grade by one letter.

 

QUIZZES:  Five times during the block you will be given a quiz to work on.  These will be available at the end of class, and are due by 4 p.m. that day.  In most cases you will need less than an hour to work on the quiz.  You may use your book and your notes to work on the quiz, but I AM THE ONLY HUMAN YOU CAN TALK TO ABOUT THE QUIZ!  I encourage you to come talk to me about the quiz. 

A typical quiz will involve three or four problems, involving material covered in the days before it is assigned. Your quiz grade will count for 25% of your grade.

 

LABS:  Labs will involve some calculus problems for which it is necessary to use a computer or a sophisticated calculator.  In class I will use a program called DERIVE on a PC platform -- this is available for your use on computer lab machines.  You will work with a partner on your lab assignments, turning in a single write-up.  The lab assignments will appear as needed on this website, at least a couple of days before they are due.  You can find the first lab assignment here.  Your second lab is due on Monday, February 5th, by 4 p.m.  Your last lab is due on Tuesday, February 13th, by 4 p.m.

The labs are worth 15% of your grade.
