Syllabus

Math 123, Section 44949, Spring 2004
9:00-9:50am in 3393 Rood

Instructor: Dr. Melinda Koelling
Office: 5525 Everett Tower
Email: melinda 'dot' koelling 'at' wmich.edu
Phone: 387-4509
Office hours: MThF 10am-11am and W 2-3.

Course Description: Techniques and applications of integration, trigonometric functions, sequences and series, indeterminate forms, improper integrals, applications to elementary differential equations.

Goals: To develop knowledge of integration, sequences and series, and differential equations and to expand ability to think mathematically.

Prerequisites: MATH 122 or equivalent, a solid knowledge of derivatives and elementary integrals.

Attitude Requirements: Mathematics is an interesting subject, and I expect you to be curious about it. No one knows everything. You should be aware of what you do and do not know, and work to learn what you do not know. You should be actively engaged in class, and you should ask questions.

Time Requirements: You must plan to spend at least 10 hours a week outside of class. If your foundation in precalculus or calculus is weak, you will need more time.

Time Requirements II: You are expected to arrive in class on time.

Text: Single Variable Calculus, Concepts and Contexts, Second Edition, by James Stewart.

Calculator: You must have a graphing calculator. Choose your calculator knowing that your instructor will use a TI-89 and you may be required to have a given model in a future course. For the calculator requirements of the math courses, see the math department website .

Gateway: Without a solid knowledge of Calculus I, you will not be able to succeed in this course. To encourage you to review, there will be a gateway exam on the second day of class. It is your responsibility to make sure you know derivatives and integrals well enough that we can spend our time on new material. For a sample exam and more details, see the departmental 123 info website .

Homework: You will be expected to read relevant sections of the book, review your notes, and complete homework before every class. You are encouraged to talk with other people to learn the material, but you should always write a final draft of your homework alone. You should maintain a notebook of these final drafts.

Presentations: All students will be required to make presentations of homework problems or problems assigned during class. Each presentation will receive a score depending on clarity and correctness of the solution.

Quizzes: Quizzes will be given in class at least once per week.

Grades: Classwork 25% , Gateway 15% , Exams (at least two) 35% , and Final exam 25% I reserve the right to lower your grade for poor attendance.

Makeups: Makeup exams will be made only in the case of a genuine medical or personal emergency. It is your responsibility to prove that your absence is due to an emergency. There will be no makeup quizzes, but the lowest quiz score will be dropped.

Communications: Academic correspondence must be through wmich.edu accounts. I will respond to email at least once per weekday.

Academic Dishonesty: You are responsible for making yourself aware of and understanding the policies and procedures in the Undergraduate (pp. 274-276) Catalog that pertain to Academic Integrity. These policies include cheating, fabrication, falsification and forgery, multiple submission, plagiarism, complicity and computer misuse. If there is reason to believe you have been involved in academic dishonesty, you will be referred to the Office of Student Conduct. You will be given the opportunity to review the charge(s). If you believe you are not responsible, you will have the opportunity for a hearing. More details about this procedure can be found at website of the office of student conduct, and an outline of the procedure can be found at this office of student conduct website . You should consult with me if you are uncertain about an issue of academic honesty prior to the submission of an assignment or test.

Disabilities: Any students with a documented disability (e.g. physical, learning, psychiatric, vision, hearing, etc.) who needs to arrange reasonable accommodations must contact Ms. Beth Denhartigh at telephone 387-2116 or by email at the beginning of the semester.
