Textbook — Calculus (8th ed), by James Stewart, Cengage Learning, 2016.

Course description — This is a rapid-paced course covering several important topics in calculus. Roughly, we will cover chapters 6, 7, 10, 11, and 12 of the book. The course is naturally divided into three parts.

The first part will feel more like a continuation of Calculus I. We will start by studying more examples of functions (chapter 6), such as the logarithmic, exponential and inverse trigonometric functions, their derivatives and anti-derivatives. Then we will develop some more extensive techniques for integration (chapter 7), such as integration by parts, trigonometric substitutions, and partial fractions.

The second part of the course is devoted to sequences and series (chapter 11). We will learn what it means for a series to converge, various tests for convergence, and the radius of convergence for a power series. An important concept will be to understand how to represent functions as power series.

In the last part, we will study parametrized curves and polar coordinates (chapter 10). We will end the course with an introduction to coordinates system and vectors in three dimensions (chapter 12).

Grading — There will be weekly homework assignments, four in-class midterms, and a comprehensive final exam. The homework will count for 15% of the grade, the midterms for 60% (the lowest 6%, the other three 18% each), and the final for 25%. The following scale is a guideline for the assignment of letter grades. The final grading scale will be no stricter.

A	B	C	D	E
100 – 90	89 – 80	79 – 70	69 – 60	59 – 0

Your grades will be posted regularly on Canvas (http://canvas.ou.edu/). You are responsible for checking the accuracy of your grades. If you find any mistakes, let me know right away so I can correct them.

Midterms and final — There will be four in-class midterms and a comprehensive final. All midterms will be given during regular lecture time on the dates shown below. The time and place for the final exam are shown below.

	Date	Time	Place	Material Covered
Midterm 1	Fri, Sep 7	9:30–10:20	PHSC 809	TBA
Midterm 2	Fri, Sep 28	9:30–10:20	PHSC 809	TBA
Midterm 3	Fri, Oct 22	9:30–10:20	PHSC 809	TBA
Midterm 4	Mon, Nov 19	9:30–10:20	PHSC 809	TBA
Final	Wed, Dec 12	8:00-10:00am	PHSC 809	Comprehensive

You are expected to be present for all exams. There will be no retakes under any circumstances. Makeup exams will be given only in case of a verifiable emergency. In such situations, it is your responsibility to communicate with me as soon as possible, preferably before the exam occurs.

Homework — Regular homework assignments and their due dates will be posted on Canvas at least one week in advance. You are responsible for monitoring Canvas for these assignments. Homework should be promptly submitted on the due date before the start of the class. Your two lowest homework grades will be dropped at the end of the semester.

Each homework set will consist of approximately 20-30 problems. Each set will be graded by the GA out of 30 points. Five points will be given for completing all the problems in the assignment. For the remaining 25 points, five selected problems worth five points each will be graded for correctness. You will not know which problems will be selected until after the due date. Solutions to the selected homework problems will be made available on Canvas.

Your homework submission must be neat, legible and clearly written. Each set must be stapled. Your full name and OU id number must be written legibly on the first page. The section and number of each problem must be labeled clearly. Your homework will not be accepted if it does not meet these requirements.

Calculators — You are welcome to use a calculator as you see fit. I encourage you to learn to use it in an effective manner. However, your calculator will not be able to pass this class for you. The use of calculators will not be allowed during exams.

Tutoring — The Math Center is dedicated to offering support to students enrolled in University of Oklahoma mathematics courses at the calculus level or below. The goal of the Math Center is to provide assistance to students as they work on understanding and mastering the concepts presented in their math courses. The Math Center is located in PHSC 209 (except for Sundays, when it is located in Muldrow 105). It is open Monday and Tuesday 9:30am-7:00pm; Wednesday and Thursday 9:30am-5:30pm; Friday 9:30am-3:30pm; Sunday 3:00pm-7:00pm. Highly-trained and qualified math graduate assistants and undergraduates will be available on a walk-in basis during these times to help you. If you have any questions or concerns regarding the Math Center or any of the help you receive there, please let your instructor know. For more information, visit http://www.ou.edu/mathcenter.

Students with Disabilities — The University of Oklahoma is committed to providing reasonable accommodation for all students with disabilities. Students with disabilities who require accommodations in this course should speak with the instructor as early in the semester as possible. Students with disabilities must be registered with the Disability Resource Center (DRC) prior to receiving accommodations in this course. The Disability Resource Center (405--325--3852, drc@ou.edu) is in the University Community Center, 730 College Avenue, Norman, OK 73019.

Policy on W grades — On or before November 9, 2018, undergraduate students can withdraw from the course with an automatic W. After this deadline, students can only withdraw via petition to the Dean of their college. The petition process also requires the instructor's signature with a passing-failing indication at the time the petition is filed. Note that a "failing" indication on the petition means that even if the petition is approved the grade in the course will be weighted in the GPA as an F.

Policy on I grades — The grade of I is not intended to serve as a benign substitute for the grade of F, and is only given if a student has completed the majority of the work in the course at a passing level (for example, if a student has completed everything except the final exam), the course work cannot be completed because of compelling and verifiable problem beyond the student's control, and the student expresses a clear intention of making up the missed work as soon as possible. Grades of I are very uncommon. If you believe that you may qualify to receive a grade of I, please discuss this with the instructor.

Academic honesty — All cases of suspected academic misconduct will be reported to the Office of Academic Integrity Programs as possible violations of University's Academic Integrity Code. If the violation is confirmed by the Academic Integrity Program's Office, the penalties can be quite severe, so the best advice is Don't do it! For more details on the University's policies concerning academic misconduct consult the link:

http://integrity.ou.edu/students.html

This link also has information about admonitions (essentially warnings about potential misconduct for fairly minor infractions) and your rights to appeal charges of academic misconduct. Students are also bound by the provisions of the OU Student Code, which can be found at:

https://www.ou.edu/content/dam/studentlife/documents/AllCampusStudentCode.pdf

Religious Holidays — It is the policy of the University to excuse the absences of students that result from religious observances and to provide without penalty for the rescheduling of examinations and additional required class work that may fall on religious holidays. If you plan to observe a religious holiday notify the instructor as soon as possible in order to make appropriate arrangements.

Adjustments for Pregnancy/Childbirth Related Issues — Should you need modifications or adjustments to your course requirements because of documented pregnancy-related or childbirth-related issues, please contact me as soon as possible to discuss. Generally, modifications will be made where medically necessary and similar in scope to accommodations based on temporary disability. Please see

www.ou.edu/content/eoo/faqs/pregnancy-faqs.html

for commonly asked questions.

Title IX Resources — For any concerns regarding gender-based discrimination, sexual harassment, sexual misconduct, stalking, or intimate partner violence, the University offers a variety of resources, including advocates on-call 24.7, counseling services, mutual no contact orders, scheduling adjustments and disciplinary sanctions against the perpetrator. Please contact the Sexual Misconduct Office 405-325-2215 (8-5, M-F) or OU Advocates 405-615-0013 (24.7) to learn more or to report an incident.
