Textbook: Thomas' Calculus, 11th Edition, Thomas, Weir, Hass, Giordano,

Prerequisites: MTH 132 or MTH152

Description: 

Grades: Your final grade will be based primarily on the total number of points you earn from a total possible point score of 600 points. The total possible point score will come from the following items: (i) 6 quizzes, worth 15 points each, (ii) 4 Tests, worth 60 points each, and (iii) 1 uniform final exam, worth 200 points, and (iv) 7 assignments, worth 10 points each. Thus, 6 * 15 + 4 * 60 + 200 + 7*10 = 600. To determine your GPA, we compute the percentage of points you earned (by dividing your total point score by 6), and use the following scale:

90-100=4.0

85-89=3.5

79-84=3.0

73-78=2.5

65-72=2.0

60-64=1.5

55-59=1.0

0-54=0.0

Quizzes and Tests: 6 quizzes will be given at the beginning of the class. For the dates of quizzes and tests, please see Announcements. Make-ups for the quizzes, tests and the final exam will not be permitted except for a severe medical problem or dire family emergency. A written note from an appropriate person is required. If at all possible, you should contact the instructor before the missed test. A missed test or final exam will receive the score 0.  

Final Examination: Dec 14, 10:00-12:00 noon. Location to be announced later.

Assignments: The problems and due days are listed on the schedule below. These problems will appear in the quizzes, tests, even the final exam. No late homework will be accepted. It is important that you complete all homework assignments. If you have difficulty with the homework, you should seek help as soon as possible either from the Mathematics Learning Center, your TA, or my own office hours.

Gateway Exams: All students in Math 133 are required to pass two Gateway Exams. The first Gateway Exam covers basic integration techniques that you should have learned in Math 132, while the second Gateway Exam covers techniques of integration that you will learn in this course. These examinations will be individualized, computer generated, no partial credit tests, with a near perfect score required for passing. You will have multiple opportunities (not more than one try per day!) to pass each exam, and will receive almost instant feedback upon completing an exam. The schedule for the Gateway Exams is accessible from the Department of Mathematics Home Page http://www.math.msu.edu/CurrentStudents/Gateway/masterschedule.aspx

If you pass each gateway exam, 10 points will be added to your score. The first gateway exam deals with prerequisites for this course only. Failure to pass the first gateway exam is a strong indication that you are not prepared for this course.

Attendance: Students are expected to attend all class meetings and are responsible for all of the material covered. Any changes in this syllabus or in the scheduling of exams, assignments etc. will be announced during class meetings. Students who miss lecture are responsible for obtaining the notes from a classmate. 

Recitation: Tuesday 12:40 PM - 1:30 PM: in C306 WH, taught by Martin Kell.

Mathematics Learning Center This is an extra resource for the mathematics students. For the details, visit the Mathematics Learning Center page.

Test Policy: All examinations in this section will be closed-book examinations. You are not permitted to use your book or notes or calculators during any of these examinations.

Test Questions and Solutions: Many of the questions on each examination will be patterned after problems worked out in the text, done in class, or among the assigned problems in the homework. The remainder will be questions of a conceptual nature drawn from the lecture notes and text material. After the graded test is returned to you, it is your obligation to learn how to solve each test question you missed (please see solutions).

Grade-change Policy: If you have any questions regarding the grading of any of your examinations, you should speak with me about your concerns during my office hours. Otherwise, no grading changes will be made.

Student Code of Conduct:

  • Students are responsible for prerequisites. 
  • The following is disruptive class behavior:
    • Coming late to class
    • Reading newspapers or using laptop during class hour
    • Private conversations during class
    • Leaving class early
  • After absences it is the student's responsibility to obtain missed material from classmates. Tests and quizzes missed because of absences without prior approval or valid Olin Health Center excuse are counted as zeros.
  • Students must produce carefully written documents. All writing must be in complete sentences employing standard English and mathematical symbols. 
  • Go to office hours with prepared questions and/or examples of your attempts at the material.
  • Study groups are encouraged. However, all work not designated as group work must be substantially the student's own work. It is a fundamental rule in academia that another's work must be acknowledged.
  • The text for the course is the primary resource. It is the student's responsibility to read each assigned section carefully. Not all points from a section may be mentioned during lecture.
  • The University's policy concerning academic integrity and honesty is covered in the Spartan Life booklet, General Student Regulations. See a note regarding academic honesty https://www.msu.edu/unit/ombud/dishonestyFAQ.html
    Specifically, the following conduct is cited:
    • Supplying or using work or answers that are not one's own.
    • Providing or accepting assistance with completing assignments or examinations.
    • Interfering through any means with another's academic work.
    • Faking data or results.
