PROFESSOR: DE WITT SUMNERS 112 LOVE 644-4406 sumners@math.fsu.edu

OFFICE HOURS: 2:00-3:00 PM Wednesday, 9:30-10:30 AM Thursday, or by appointment.

ELIGIBILITY: You must have satisfied the course prerequisites listed below, and must never have completed (with a grade of C- or better) a course for which MAC 2311 is a (stated or implied) prerequisite. Students with prior credit in college calculus are required to reduce the credit for MAC 3211. It is your responsibility to check and prove eligibility.

PREREQUISITES: You must have passed MAC 1140 (College Algebra) and MAC 1113 (Trigonometry) (respectively known as MAC 2140 and MAC 1114 at TCC) with a grade of C- or better, or have appropriate transfer credit. Placement in AMP Group 1 or 1H (or 2 if you are currently taking trigonometry) is also considered to satisfy the prerequisite. AMP group 3A with prior college algebra of AMP group 3B with prior college trigonometry will also satisfy the prerequisite requirements.

TEXT: CALCULUS, 3RD EDITION, JAMES STEWART, BROOKS-COLE (1995). THIS COURSE COVERS CHAPTERS 0,1,2,3,4,5 OF THIS TEXT.

PHILOSOPHY AND COURSE OBJECTIVES: This will be a course in the theory and practice of calculus. Calculus was independently discovered by a pair of mathematical geniuses: Sir Isaac Newton (1642-1727) and Baron Gottfried Wilhelm Leibnitz (1646-1719). They were competitors in its development; each had a school of acolytes who disagreed with the other school. Calculus is a triumph of quantitative reasoning over the forces of ignorance. It should be fun to study. This course is designed to provide understanding of the fundamental concepts of derivative and antiderivative, and mastery of the calculation techniques necessary for the applications of the calculus.

HELP CENTER: 110 Milton Carothers Hall. Operating hours will be announced in class as soon as they are determined.

GRADES: Your final letter grade in this course will be determined by your performance in the following areas:

HOMEWORK: A list of assigned problems is found on the last page of this syllabus. Ideally, we will spend class time discussing more challenging problems and the ideas behind the calculus, instead of massive quantities of routine problems.

QUIZZES AND CLASS PARTICIPATION: Students are expected to attend class, and to have done (at a minimum) the assigned homework. Students are encouraged to work problems not specifically assigned. There will be unscheduled quizzes (about 10 of them, usually on Thursdays).

CALCULATORS: Use of scientific and graphing calculators in class (and computers at home!) is encouraged. Sharing calculators during a quiz or exam is prohibited.

HOUR EXAMS:

EXAM #1--THURSDAY, JANUARY 29, 1998.

EXAM #2--THURSDAY, MARCH 5, 1998.

EXAM #3--THURSDAY, APRIL 9, 1998.

FINAL EXAM--MONDAY, APRIL 27, 1998 10:00 AM-12:00 NOON.

Your final grade will be determined as follows:

Quizzes : 25% of the final grade.

Hour tests: 45% of the final grade

Final exam: 30% of the final grade

GRADING SCALE: A = 90-100%; B = 80-89%; C = 70-79%; D = 60-69%; F = 0-59%.

No + grades will be given.

MAKE-UPS: NONE GIVEN. Your 2 lowest quiz scores will be dropped. If you miss one hour exam and give me a valid written excuse, your final exam will be used as the grade for your missed exam. If you miss two or more hour exams, and/or the final exam, you have a VERY BIG PROBLEM.

I am expecting that these assigned problems shall be worked (or at least attempted) by all students. You are encouraged to work problems not specifically assigned. You should work enough of the easy problems to be sure you have the concept down; then spend some time working challenging problems.
