If you purchased the electronic textbook from MyLabsPlus last semester in Calc I, you must inform me by email no later than Thursday, January 28th, so that I can request a MML code for your e-book access.
If you have a print copy of the book, MyMathLab is not required.
Course Description: 3 hours.Differentiation and integration of exponential, logarithmic and transcendental functions; integration techniques; indeterminate forms; improper integrals; area and arc length in polar coordinates; infinite series; power series; Taylor’s theorem.
Prerequisite(s):MATH 1710.
Grading Scheme:
Exams –45% (3 exams; 15% each)
Homework –20%
Quizzes – 10%
Final Exam - 25%
Recitation Class: Recitation will primarily be used to provide supplemental instruction by working additional example problems, answering homework questions, and reviewing for exams. In addition, each week a short quiz covering the material from the previous week will be administered, homework will be collected, and all exams will be taken during recitation.
Email Policy: To ensure your email is received and responded to in a timely manner, please include your name and the course number (1720.310) in the subject line of any email. This will help ensure your email is not discarded as spam. I will answer all emails ASAP, but please allow up to48 hours for a response. Any questions regarding grades or your class performance MUST be sent from an official UNT email address.
Homework:Homework lists will be given before the start of each chapter, and will be due the specifiedThursday at the beginning of recitation. Late homework will not be accepted for any reason. Your homework will be graded on the correctness of your solution and your ability to communicate your understanding of the material. Homework that is illegible, received over email, or received without a name will not be graded. The grader reserves the right to deduct points if all of your homework is not stapled together. At the end of the semester, your lowest two homework scores will be dropped.I will also post copies of the assignments on blackboard. Homework is essential to mastering this material.
Quizzes: Quizzes will (typically) be administered once a week at the beginning of recitation and will cover material taught the week before. You must be in recitation in order to take the quiz. There will be no make-up quizzes for any reason.If you are late to recitation you will not be given extra time for a quiz. At the end of the semester, the two lowest quiz grades will be dropped.
Exams:There will be 3 midterm exams and a comprehensive final exam which will be taken in recitation. The grade you make on the final exam will replace the lowest exam grade (if your final exam grade is higher). No make-up exams will be given for any reason. You may take an exam early if you have a legitimate reason for being unable to attend class and you email me at least 1 week in advance. In this case, arrangements will be made for you to take the exam in the Math Testing Center (GAB 443). It will be your responsibility to ensure you take the exam at the scheduled time and bring everything you need with you. You may ask me to go over any exam problems with you. However, all decisions regarding the amount of partial credit awarded for an incorrect solution are final.
Final Exam Date and Time: Tuesday 5/10 at 1:30 PM in LANG201
Academic Dishonesty: Cheating will not be tolerated. Any student caught cheating will receive a “0” on the assignment and a report will be filed with the Office of Academic Integrity. Feel free to speak to me if you are unsure if a specific action constitutes as cheating.
Calculators: TI 83, TI 83 Plus, TI 84, TI 84 Plus or equivalent, their use will be supported in class. Examples of calculators not allowed: TI-Nspires, TI 89’s, TI 92’2 or any other utility with alphanumeric/CAS capabilities ARE NOT permitted. A calculator may not be sharedduring an exam.
Start Working Now: The best way to ensure you pass this course is to work consistently throughout the semester. In mathematics courses, topics always build one upon the other making it very difficult to catch up later if you fall behind. I will not entertain any pleas for extra credit or offers to do additional work at the end of the semester.
Disability Accommodations: The University of North Texas makes reasonable academic accommodation for students with disabilities. Students seeking accommodation must first register with the Office of Disability Accommodation (ODA) to verify their eligibility. If a disability is verified, the ODA will provide you with an accommodation letter to be delivered to faculty to begin a private discussion regarding your specific needs in a course. You may request accommodations at any time, however, ODA notices of accommodation should be provided as early as possible in the semester to avoid any delay in implementation. Note that students must obtain a new letter of accommodation for every semester and must meet with each faculty member prior to implementation in each class. For additional information see the Office of Disability Accommodation website at . You may also contact them by phone at 940.565.4323.
