Prentice-Hall has developed a calculus web site to go with Edwards and Penney's book. You may find it useful for extra problems and review.

Academic Honesty Statement

The following is the university policy concerning academic integrity:

All students are responsible for maintaining the highest standards of honesty and integrity in every phase of their academic careers. The penalties for academic dishonesty are severe and ignorance is not an acceptable defense.

Syllabus (Chapters 2-4 and sections 5.2 and 8.1, of the text)

Tangent lines and limits

Continuity

The derivative

Differentiation rules

Maxima and minima

Derivatives of transcendental functions

Implicit differentiation and related rates

Linear approximation

Mean Value Theorem

Calculators

Scientific calculators are allowed on exams, but not graphing calculators or calculators which can do derivatives. Using such a calculator on a test is considered a violation of academic honesty.

Labs

Math 2200 L is a prerequisite OR corequisite for the course. If you have taken the lab previously, you do not need to take it again, although you may do so if you wish. The course is also a corequisite for the lab, so if you drop the course, you will need special permission to stay in the lab. The decision for this will normally be left up to your lab instructor.

Tests, homework, and grading

There will be 4 tests and a final exam. Homework will be assigned every day. It will be collected from time to time to verify that you have done it, but will not be graded for correctness. Term tests count for 70% of the grade, homework 5%, and the final counts for 25%. If it is to your advantage, your lowest test grade will be dropped and replaced by a corresponding percentage of your final.

Letter grades will be given according to the usual standards: 90-100 is an A, 80-89 is a B, etc.
