Course Policies for Math 251-002, Fall 2020

Textbook: Essential Calculus: Early Transcendentals, 2nd ed, by James Stewart. We cover Chapters 10-13. You are expected to already know the material in Chapters 1-9.

Optional Supplimental Material: Schaum's Outline of Calculus, by Ayres & Mendelson, any edition. Some students last semester recommended The Kahn Academy videos: https://www.khanacademy.org/math/multivariable-calculus

Homework: Most homework will be done via WebAssign. Some homework will need to be written up the old fashoned way and then emailed to me. You can work with others on the homework. But do not just copy from someone - you'll fail the tests.

Quizzes: There will be occasional quizzes. These will be protocted via Zoom.

Tests: There will be four tests, one for each chapter we cover. These will be protocted via Zoom.

Final: There will be a two hour comprehensive final exam. The exam date will be announced later. It will be protocted via Zoom.

Grades: Your course grade will be computed as follows. Homework & quizzes will be averaged with the lowest three dropped. These will count for 100 points. Each text will count for 100 points. I do not drop the lowest test grade. The final will count for 200 points.

Cheating: The minimum penalty for cheating is a grade of F in the course. The Dean of the College may wish to take further action. There will be multiple versions of the quizzes, tests and the final. You are prohibited from using any solutions manuals.
