Instructor: Matt Ollis, Sci 218, matt@marlboro.edu

Timetable: MWF 9.30 - 10.20, Sci 216

Course Outline: This course will follow chapters five to eight of Calculus by James Stewart, published by Brooks/Cole. The program will follow a strict schedule that includes drill and practice routines for developing a familiarity with the common tools of calculus alongside discussions surrounding the concepts behind the subject. Thus assignments from Stewart's Calculus, will prompt class discussion surrounding the concepts, while daily problem sets will reinforce a command of the material. This is a four-credit course and there is much to learn. Please keep in mind that this course requires a daily commitment. The best way to successfully learn the material is to stay ahead of the game and work through the assignments before final class discussion.

Grades: Here is the breakdown for how your grade will be calculated: 10% Class participation and attendance; 20% In-class quizzes; 30% Graded homework assignments; 40% Final exam.

Homeworks: Bold numbered problems in the attached homework assignment sheet are to be handed in for grading. Plain text numbered problems are more drill and practice material that should be worked through to keep up with course material. You are expected to complete the current assignment after the topic is introduced in class and before class discussion of the assignment itself. By 4pm each Friday you are expected to hand in your solutions to the appropriate bold numbered questions (exactly which questions these are will be announced during the previous week); but you may wish to discuss any assignments that you find difficult.

Office hours: TBA.

Tutoring: TBA.
