Text: Stewart, Calculus: Early Transcendentals, Fifth Edition, Thomson (Brooks/Cole), 2003. This is a new edition, with revised problem sets.
Calculator: Each student will be expected to have and use a programmable graphics calculator, preferably Texas Instruments TI-85 or TI-86 (the only models with which your instructor and TA are likely to be familiar).
Homework: Homework, which will count 5% of your total grade, is to be written up and handed in each Tuesday at the beginning of class. A random small number of problems will be graded and returned to you at the following Tuesday. No late homework will be accepted. Current assignments are posted below.
Quiz: Most quizzes will be given during the TA session on Mondays. However, there will also be pop up quizzes, in class, on material just taught and/or straight from the assigned homework up to that lecture. The worst 3 quiz scores will be dropped and the remaining quizzes will contribute 15% of the grade. There will be no make-ups for quizzes.
Course exams: Check the Math 131 Web page for time and place, including the policy for make-up exams.
