Course Objectives: This course aims to introduce you to performing mathematics computations

with Maple. The other major goal of this course is to teach you how to write papers explaining

mathematical computations, in a manner that is clear and concise.

 

 

Co requisite Course: MATH 2200.

A student who is withdrawn from Math2200L should withdraw from the co requisite course. This

process is NOT done automatically, so a student should apply electronically for the process through

the OASIS. (Midpoint Withdrawal Deadline: Fri, Oct.15)

 

 

Materials and Information: The lab manual is available for free at the following website.

  • Open Lab at the Boyd Graduate Studies Research Center,

 

1.      Room #308: 10AM-2PM, Mon-Fri.

2.      Room #221: 6PM-10PM, Mon-Thurs.

 

 

 

Projects and Schedule: The primary activity of this course is doing the following 5 projects.

 

Week 1 - 3: Introduction to 2200L

Week 4 - 6: Introduction to Limits

Week 7 - 9: Tangent Lines

Week 10 -13: New Newton’s Method

Week 14-15: Analysis of a Graph

 

Grade:

  • NO QUIZ AND NO FINAL.

 

  • 70% : 5 Projects

 

                     - 10 points are possible for each submission. 2 points will be taken off if late.

 

Please, participate in the class activity!

  • The following table is only applicable for students who meet the attendance standard.

 

Letter Grade

              Condition

           A

7.5 points or more in average

           B

between 7.5 pts and 5pts

           C

between 5 pts and 3pts

       W or WF

lower than 3pts or

regardless of their average if 5absences or more.

 

 

Attendance Policy: A student with 5 excused or unexcused absences will be withdrawn from the lab at any time of the semester. Three unexcused absences or more will result in lowering one’s course grade by one letter; e.g., if a student misses three labs and gets A on projects, then it will be lowered to B. At most two make ups are allowed, and a makeup form is available form the instructor.

 

 

     The Academic Honesty Statement: The student’s signature and a copy of the Academic

     Honesty Statement should be included at the very end of each report. Students are

     encouraged to work with other students; however, the reports should NOT be identical. That

     is, students are supposed to use their own words to explain their works. If this statement or

     signature is missing, then the report will not be graded and will be returned to the student.
