Grading |
Your final course percentage P will be based off four common hour exams and a section
grade determined by your instructor:

|
The section grade S is determined by your section instructor and will be based off
a combination of quizzes and/or homework assignments. Your instructor will communicate
their policies for this.
Your final course percentage P is then determined by:
P = (M1+M2+M3+F+HW+S) / 5
None of the exam, homework or section grades may be "dropped".
The course percentage will be converted to a letter grade using the following scale:
A |

Tutoring/MLC |
Your instructor will let you know what their office hours are for extra help.
The Math Learning Center (MLC - Wil 1-112) also provides free tutoring during the
week. Capable tutors (including current M172 instructors) are available according to the following schedule
Corinne Casolara also holds M172 pre-exam review sessions on the following schedule:

WeBWork |
Is an online homework system managed by the Mathematical Association of America. Your
username is your netID username and the initial password is your GID number (with
the dash). WeBWork assignments will be periodically added to the site. The assignments
are automatically graded and collectively account for 10% of your overall grade. Two
important links:
WeBWork assignments will have equal weight when counted towards your overall grade.
The three lowest assignment scores will be dropped. |
|
|
Videos |
Video tutorials for each textbook section covered are posted below under the "Media"
column of the Homework section. Hopefully many of you will find them helpful. |
|
|
Exam Policies |
Exam content/summary will be announced in class and posted.
Common hour exams are closed book, no notes and no electronic devices.
The final exam is comprehensive but will have limited scope. The precise contents will be listed later in the semester.
Policies regarding quizzes and/or homework forming your section grade will be communicated to you by your instructor.
Class attendance on common exam days is not required |
|
|
Exam Dates |
Exam dates, times and locations are listed below by section number. Some sections
will be sharing the same room for certain exams. In those situations it does not matter
where you sit but completed exams will be collected by section number. Know your section
number!

Supplementary Points of interest
There are many interesting and unusual things we don't have time to cover.
Some of these will be listed in the table below with a brief description and link. In some cases these may be
links to cool free software or web teaching aids. Enjoy!

Description |

|
Surface Area |
Odd things can happen on infinite domains. Here's an example of a object with finite
volume but infinite surface area!! The "ice cream cone" is commonly called Gabriels
Horn. The calculations are nasty but undeniable. |

PDF |
Taylor Polynomials |
If any of you know symbollic manipulator program such as Maple or Mathematica, you'd
know that tedious Taylor Polynomial caculations are easy. Here's sample Maple code
illustrating this. |
|
MAPLE CODE |
|
Taylor Polynomials of e^x |
|
|
Series |
If a series is conditionally convergent, you can sum it in a different order and make it converge to any number you wish!! Weird but true. |

PDF |
Series |
There are some free sites that have cool web interface teaching aids for series. The future is coming but you should take such aids with a grain a salt. They can sometimes give misleading results. ......so you still need to know the material! |
