Text:Essential Calculus, Early Transcendentals , by James Stewart.
Calculator: Each student will be expected to have access to a calculator that will plot functions, evaluate "user-defined" functions at specified values, solve equations, and do numerical integration; i.e., a graphing calculator.
Software: We will use the Maple computer algebra system software, available in the AASU computer labs.
A Brief Outline of Topics Covered

Homework:Homework will be assigned daily, but not collected.
Attendance: Nearly perfect class attendance is essential for anyone who anticipates successfully completing this course. If you do miss a class, you are responsible for any material covered or assignments made in that class.
Quizzes: There will be a quiz each Wednesday on which there is not an exam. Quizzes will be graded on a 0-10 scale. At the end of the term your lowest quiz will be dropped; the rest will determine your quiz average.
Maple Projects: There will be several (3 or 4) assignments using Maple.
Exams: There will be four in-class hour exams, scheduled as follows:
In addition, there will be a comprehensive final exam, scheduled for Monday, December 14 at 2:50 p.m.
Grading Policy: Your final grade will be computed as follows:
 
 
10% Maple Projects
10%  Quiz average
15% Each of the 4 in-class Exams
20% Final Exam

In addition, your final exam score may be used to replace the lowest of your 4 in-class exam grades.  Thus, your final exam can count for as much as 35%, but at least 20%, of your grade.

Mid-Term Date: The last day to withdraw without academic penalty is Thursday, October 8.

Attendance: Nearly perfect class attendance is essential for anyone who anticipates successfully completing this course.  If you do miss a class, you are responsible for the material covered and the assignments made.  Attendance at examinations is expected except under unusual circumstances.  In general, make-up tests will not be given; however, students who expect to miss an exam should contact the instructor in advance in order to make compensating arrangements.

ADA: Every attempt will be made to assist students with physical or learning impairments that have been documented with a letter from AASU's Director of Disabilities Services.

Honor Code: You are expected to abide by AASU's Honor Code (see Appendix I in the current catalog).  In this course, you may neither give nor receive aid on quizzes and exams.  You are permitted, and even encouraged, to work together on homework assignments, but your Maple projects must be entirely your own work.
