MATH 107 CALCULUS and ANALYTIC GEOMETRY Mon, Tues, Wed, and Thurs 8:00 to 9:05 AM Room E 106 5 UNITS Instructor Larry Green Phone Number Office: 541-4660 Extension 341 Internet e-mail:...greenl@ltcc.edu WWW: http://www.ltcc.edu/programs/math Grades: http://www.gradesource.com/reports/320/2003/index.html Required Text Calculus sixth edition by Larson, Hostetler, and Edwards Course description The topics covered in this course include Taylor Polynomials, Series, Polar Coordinates, Vectors and Differentiation of Multivariate Functions. Prerequisite A grade of C or better in Math 106 or equivalent. Grading Policy Your letter grade will be based on your percentage of possible points. A 90 -- 100% C 70 -- 79% Homework: .........................................
100 points Exam Policy Students are to bring calculators, pencils or pens, and paper to each exam. Grading will based on the progress towards the final answer, and the demonstration of understanding of the concept that is being tested, therefore, work must be shown in detail. Any student who cannot make it to an exam may elect to take the exam up to two days before the exam is scheduled. If all homework is completed and no more than three homework assignments are counted late, then the midterm with the lowest score will be dropped. Homework Policy Homework will be turned in at the end of class on the date due. If a student has additional questions, that student may see me after class in my office and then turn in the homework by 5:00 PM on the date due. Homework that is turned in within one week of the due date will be counted as half credit. Homework may be turned later than one week after the due date, but points will not be awarded. At the beginning of each class, a 2 to 5 minute quiz will be given. Each quiz will count as 20% of the homework assignment and cannot be made unless there is a medical excuse. Extra Credit Any student who has turned in every homework assignment may elect to work on an extra credit assignment or project that will count as additional points towards either a midterm or the final. Poster Project The
project involves investigating an application of calculus and physics.
Exceptions will be made for students without a physics background.
The display must be approximately 1 meter by 1.3 meters. You may write
any equation by hand. You are encouraged to have Math View, Maple, or
Origin assist you in the project. Ideally you should work on the project with
one partner, but an exception can be made under special circumstances. Your
abstract is to be a one-paragraph description of your project. It will be due on
April 23. Included in your abstract
should be a set of references that you intend to use.
From 12:00 to 1:00 on May 7 you will be expected to stand by your project
and answer questions from the judges and observers.
The projected will be graded on both content and presentation. Learning Disabilities If you have a learning disability, be sure to discuss it with Larry. Learning disabilities will be accommodated. Tutoring Individual math tutoring is available free of charge in the GMC (G4). Registration
In this class, it is your responsibility to drop the class in order to avoid an unwanted grade. You must go to the registrar by the above dates to avoid the unwanted grade.
OFFICE HOURS: Room A210 Monday, Wednesday ....... .. 10:00 to 11:00 (In GMC) Tuesday, Thursday ..................... 3:00 to 4:00 Friday ...........................11:00 to 12:00 CALCULATORS: A graphing calculator is required for this class. There are a variety of such calculators on the market. The instructor will be using a Texas Instruments-85. Calculators (with the exception of those equipped with symbolic manipulation) will be allowed on the exams.
HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENTS Lecture will always be geared towards an explanation of the topics that will be covered on the upcoming homework assignment.
