Announcement: Oct. 26, 2000Welcome to Calculus! This is the first of three courses in the basic calculus sequence taken primarily by students in science, engineering, and mathematics. Topics include the limit of a function; the derivative of algebraic, trigonometric, exponential, and logarithmic functions; and the integral and its basic formulas. Applications of the derivative are covered in detail, including related rate problems, maximum and minimum problems, and curve sketching using calculus.
You may take this course either online or in class, or a combination of the two. Here's how it works.
I will deliver the lectures in the table below on the specified dates. Each lecture will have a corresponding textbook homework and online homework. Textbook homework will not be turned in. Worked out solutions to these problems will be available on this webpage.
The online homework will be for credit, it will be submitted online and graded automatically. There will be an online discussion session for those with questions or comments about the homework assignment on Tuesday and Thursday evenings from 6 to 8 PM. Other discussions will be hosted by students in this class and announced on the website once they are organized. Homework assignments are due Wednesday and Monday nites at midnight.
Online students unable to take the test with the class 10 - 12 on Thursdays, may take exams 12 - 5 PM in the Physics Lab, BS 214, Wednesday, Thursday, or Friday of the week the test is given in class.
The Thinkwell packet you purchased at the bookstore includes three CD's. The same set of lectures that I am giving are on these CD's, only they are done by Dr. Edward Burger.
