MAC 2312-901 Calculus II--Fall Semester 2001

Grades for the Course Listed by Students' Code Names (posted Dec 11, 2001):

The grades AVG1  and  Course Grade were calculated using the method described in the syllabus below.  Beside each Course Grade the corresponding Letter Grade is given.  If you have any questions send me an email to eclark@math.usf.edu. Note that some of the code names were difficult to read.  I either guessed or put ? where I could not read a letter. You should be able to figure out which is yours by the previous grades. The code name none represents student who either did not give a code name or did not take the Final.  The column headed by ECr indicates the extra credit given for attending the Nagle Lecture.

OFFICE HOURS:  3:00-3:50 MWF  Sometimes there will be faculty meetings or other business that I must attend at this time.  If you really need to see me you should send me an email and I will make an appointment to see you, if these hours are not convenient.  You may also see me shortly before or after class to make an appointment or ask a brief question.
TEXT: Calculus: One and Several Variables (8th edition) by Salas, Hille, Etgen;
COURSE OBJECTIVES: We will cover most sections of Chapters 6, 7, 8, 10 and 11 in the text.  See the sections covered by each exam below for more details.  There may be a few things mentioned in class that are not in the text. Students will be responsible for all material presented in class.
PREQUISITES:  MAC 2311 Calculus I
ATTENDANCE POLICY:  Attendance will not be taken and will not form a part of the grade. However, students are responsible for all material presented in the class even if it is not in the textbook.  So if you cannot attend  a class, I suggest that you obtain notes from  someone who did.
HOMEWORK:  Homework assignments will be given in class after each section is covered.  They will also be posted on my homepage at URL:  http://www.math.usf.edu/~eclark/cal2_901_hw.htmlHomework will not be collected and graded.   But since the exams will for the most part be based on the homework, it behooves students to work all assigned problems. Ample time will be given in class to go over assigned problems. Students will profit best by working the problems for a section as soon as the section is covered in class.
TENTATIVE EXAM SCHEDULE: The dates and material covered given below are subject to change if the need arises. Use of calculators will not be permitted on exams.
 EXAM        DATE SECTIONS COVERED

 Final  Mon., Dec. 10, 6:00-8:00PM The Final  is a comprehensive exam. It will cover everything in the course. 

MAKEUP POLICY:   There will be no makeups for Exams 1, 2, 3, and 4.   A student missing one or  more of these for any reason will have to take the Final.  See the Grading Policy below.
 
 
 
 
 
 

GRADING POLICY:  Each exam will be given a score from 0 to 100. I will use the following method to compute your course grade:  Let AVG1 be the average of the scores on Exam 1, Exam 2, Exam 3, and Exam 4. Let AVG2 be the number obtained by replacing the lowest of the scores on  Exam 1, Exam 2, Exam 3, Exam 4 by the score obtained on the Final Exam and taking the average.

The Course Grade will be maximum of the numbers  AVG1, AVG2,  and the Final Exam score. Thus, students satisfied with  AVG1  will not have to take the Final, and in any case students may rest their entire course grade on the Final.

There will be no curve. The following scale will be used to convert the Course Grade to a Letter Grade:

98-100 = A+,  93-97 = A,   90-92 = A-,
88-89   = B+,  83-87 = B,   80-82 = B-,
78-79   = C+,  73-77 = C,   70-72 = C-,
68-69   = D+,  63-67 = D,  60-62 = D-,
0-59     = F.

IMPORTANT DATES:

August 27 - Monday Fall, first day of classes
September 3 - Monday (Holiday) Labor Day
November 12 - Monday  (Holiday) Veteran's Day
