AnnouncementsHomework #1 is due Tuesday, May 29th. |
Syllabus and gradingHere is the syllabus for the class, including homework instructions and grading details. I have also compiled a list of problems and topics in the order in which we will cover them. We will cover the syllabus for the Math 114 classes offered during the regular semesters but in a slightly different order. You can find the syllabus, as well as a Maple tutorial and sample final exams at www.math.upenn.edu/ugrad/calc/m114. Grading: 60% homework, 40% final exam ( + 10% extra credit). I will be using Blackboard to post your homework scores. Tips for success1. Do the assigned homework and write it up carefully. Don't be afraid to try to do other problems in the book, even if they are not assigned; this is the only way to learn and do well in calculus.2. Work together if you want; very few mathematicians work in isolation! However, this does NOT mean sharing final solutions. Try all the problems on your own first, and write up your own solution set. I'd be happy to help you set up study groups. 3. Read the textbook. You can read the relevant chapters before or after class; try not to fall behind. Mathematics is built vertically, and it can be difficult to catch up, especially in a class that moves quickly. 4. Make use of the resources available. Please come to my office hours, and check out some of the university resources if needed. See below. Resources and supportHere is the main page for Summer at Penn. It seems to contain information from 2006, but hopefully it will be updated soon. |
