INSTRUCTOR: Jane Baldo
PHONE NUMBER: 541-4660, Extension 247
E-MAIL: BALDO@ltcc.edu
REQUIRED TEXT: College Algebra and Trigonometry with Graphing Technology by David Stevens.
RECOMMENDED TEXT: College Algebra and Trigonometry with Graphing Technology Students' Solution Manual by David Stevens.
COURSE DESCRIPTION: In this course, we will study trigonometric functions of real numbers and angles, their graphs and properties, functions of multiple angles, identities, reduction formulas, radian measure, inverse functions, solution of triangles and complex numbers.
PREREQUISITES: The prerequisite for this class is a grade of C or better in Math 103B, College Algebra (part 2) or by achieving a satisfactory grade on the Mathematics Assessment Exam.
OVER GRADING POLICY: Method of Student Evaluation page 2
Exam #1 (Chapter 7) 100 points Exam #2 (Sections 8.1 - 9.2) 100 points Quizzes (based on homework) 60 points Homework 40 points Final (Covers entire course content) 150 points
Your letter grade will be based on your percentage of the possible points. The total possible is 450 points.
A 90-100% B 80-89% C 70-79% D 60-69% F less than 60%
HOMEWORK: Homework from each week will be collected on the following Thursday. It will be graded on effort only. Each assignment is worth 5 points. No late homework will be accepted but one assignment is dropped so if you miss one, that is the one which will be dropped. Otherwise, your lowest score will be dropped. Homework will be approximately 9% of your grade.
REGISTRATION:
1. You must register for this class at the Office of Admissions and Records.
2. The last day to drop the class with no record is Friday, May 1.
3. The last day to drop the class for a "W" grade is Friday, June 5.
4. After June 5, if you are enrolled, you will receive one of the following grades: A B C D F or I (Incomplete, is only allowed in special cases).
In this class, it is your responsibility to drop the class in order to avoid a grade. You must go to the registrar by the above dates to avoid a grade from option three or four.
MAKE-UP POLICY: For quizzes there is no make-up but one is dropped. For Chapter Tests and the Final, make-up is possible, but there is a 10% penalty, except when there is a written medical excuse. Homework is not accepted late but one assignment is dropped. HOW TO SUCCEED IN A MATH CLASS: page 3
1) Come to every class meeting.
2) Arrive early, get yourself settled and be ready when class starts. Sit where you won't be distracted.
3) Read each section before it is discussed in class.
4) Do all of the homework.
5) Do some math every day.
6) Start preparing for tests at least a week in advance.
7) Take advantage of tutors and office hours, extra help can make a big difference.
TUTORING: Individual math tutoring is available in the Mezzanine area just outside of the library. If you are having trouble finding a math tutor, check with the personnel in room B107. Tutoring hours are posted outside of B107 and in your classroom.
OFFICE HOURS: Room: A204
Monday & Wednesday 4:00 - 5:00 Tuesday & Thursday 5:00 - 6:00 Friday 1:00 - 2:00
CALCULATOR: You will need a graphing calculator for this class. Texas Instruments 85 Graphing calculators can be rented for $15 a quarter from the Learning Assistance Center (B107). The instructors at this college demonstrate on the Texas Instruments 85 Graphing Calculator. Please ask Jane if you have any questions about which type of calculator is best for you. Calculators will be allowed on exams.
LEARNING DISABLED STUDENTS: It is important that students, identified as learning disabled, speak with Jane about their special needs.
