Textbook: Calculus - (Single Variable Calculus Early Transcendentals, 8E, 2016) by James Stewart

Prerequisite: Math 150 with a minimum grade of C.

Calculators: No calculators will be allowed on the Exams (quizzes/midterms/final).

Grading: Quizzes and Activity 20%

Homework 20%
Three Tests 30% [No make-ups –See Remark 1]
Final 30%

Homeworks: The homework grade will be split in two parts. Part 1 (50%): the grade you score in WebAssign. Part 2 (50%):
you need to turn in a handwritten version of all your work with all the details at how you arrived at the answers you inputed in
WebAssign. No late homework accepted.

Quizzes: Quizzes can show up during lecture, recitation or activity sessions. Your score on the weekly
Quizzes will reflect your understanding of the Homework, which also includes ideas and concepts from the reading
assignments, and may often reflect your understanding of ideas discussed in class.

Exams: Tests will be taken in our normal classroom during our regular class time. The comprehensive final exam will be
administered at the end of the semester.
• The final exam is NOT optional.
• No notes of any kind will be allowed during exams.
• No calculators will be allowed during exams.

Attendance Note: Attendance to all lectures is required. We will often expand upon the ideas discussed in the book and some
of the ideas and problems from the lectures may appear on the Exams and Quizzes. There will be no make-ups of Quizzes.
Lateness or leaving class early is unacceptable. If lateness becomes a common problem, the instructor reserves the right to lock
the doors.

Some Basics:
• Turn off your cell phones before coming to class—not on vibrate mode, but OFF. If your cell phone rings uring
a quiz or exam, it will result in an automatic F for that particular item.
• DO NOT go outside in the middle of class to make or answer a phone call.
• Do not talk while I am lecturing or while other students are asking questions.
• Do not come to class late, and do not leave early. It is not only inconsiderate, but also quite
disruptive to other students. If it is a consistent problem, the matter will be addressed on a one-to-one basis.
• Comments about another's race, ethnicity, accent, appearance, intelligence, or sexual orientation will not be
tolerated on any level.

Course Grade: You will be guaranteed the following grades as given by the percentage score on the homework,
quizzes, midterms, and final exam:
F: 59% or lower
D ̶ : 60% - 62% D: 63% - 64% D+: 64% - 65%
C ̶ : 66% - 69% C: 70% - 75% C+: 76% - 79%
B ̶ : 80% - 83% B: 84% - 86% B+: 87% - 89%
A ̶ : 90% - 93% A: 94% - 100%

Chapters/topics: We will cover Chapters 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, and 11, and Sec. 3.8 (exponential growth, covered with the Chap 9
material) and 3.11 (Hyperbolic Functions). You will only be responsible for the Sections of the Text where reading or
problems have been assigned in the Homeworks. We also will have a short review during the first week.

Remark 1: There are no make-up exams. If you miss an exam due to an emergency or illness, and you present verifiable
documentation explaining the absence (i.e., letter from your doctor with addresses and phone numbers), then the other two
exams will count as 30% of your grade. If you miss two exams, then you will need to take the course again.

Remark 2: Throughout the entire semester, you will be required to understand the ideas and techniques
previously covered at all times. For example, having a thorough understanding of the integration techniques discussed in
Chapters 5 and 7 will be necessary throughout the remaining sections covered in this course.

Remark 3: Since algebra is the “language” of calculus, it is important to be efficient at simplifying and manipulating
quantities involving trigonometric, logarithmic, exponential, and fractional terms. Thus, having a Precalculus text as a
reference is highly recommended.

Course outcome

This course is specifically designed for students majoring in the STEM careers (Science, Technology, Engineering,
and Mathematics). After following the course, students will increase knowledge in calculus and its applications by
the knowledge of: applications of definite integral; techniques of integration; solving of elementary ordinary
differential equations; knowledge of converges/divergence of series of functions.

Student Learning Outcomes: Calculus provides the mathematical basis for many courses in sciences and engineering.
Understanding of integration is critical for learning how to solve mathematical differential equations that arise in climate
models, seismology, astronomy, bridge and dam construction, etc. Understanding of power series is critical for understanding
the behavior of many functions. By the end of the course with the topics given above, students should be able to:

1. Solve integrals analytically using a variety of techniques including integration by parts, function substitutions, partial
fractions, etc;

2. Calculate arc length, areas and volumes in different coordinate systems (e.g., Cartesian and/or Polar coordinate systems)
using the integration methods;

3. Solve simple differential equations using integration methods and understand the characteristics of the solutions (e.g.,
exponential growth or decay; linear and nonlinear responses);

4. Understand the definition of Taylor and Maclaurin power series and their convergence and divergence; perform different
tests (e.g., the Integral Test, the Limit Comparison Test, the Ratio Test) to examine the absolute or conditional convergence (or
divergence) of the power series; and represent functions using Taylor and Maclaurin power series.

Personal Conflicts: No special arrangements will be made for personal conflicts such as: (a) Family related issues (weddings,
visiting relatives, etc.), (b) Work conflicts: schedule, traveling, traffic, etc., (c) Vacations planned during regular class
meetings, etc... Special arrangements can be made, however, only in the most compelling and verifiable circumstances such as
disabilities/illness. Midterm and final dates and times are posted from the beginning of the semester so please plan accordingly.

No Extra Credit: Please do not ask for extra credit work. Study diligently throughout the semester so that you will get a good
grade in the course. Study diligently and do not “cram” for exams and quizzes.

Cheating and Plagiarism:

Definition. What constitutes an act of cheating is not an arbitrary definition. Taken from the San Diego State University Senate
cheating is defined as the following: Cheating shall be defined as the act of obtaining or attempting to obtain credit for
academic work by the use of dishonest, deceptive, or fraudulent means. Examples of cheating include, but are not limited to (a)
copying, in part or in whole, from another’s test or other examination; (b) discussing answers or ideas relating to the answers
on a test or other examination without the permission of the instructor; (c) obtaining copies of a test, an examination, or other
course material without the permission of the instructor; (d) using notes, cheat sheets, or other devices considered inappropriate
under the prescribed testing condition; (e) collaborating with another or others in work to be presented without the permission
of the instructor; (f) falsifying records, laboratory work, or other course data; (g) submitting work previously presented in
another course, if contrary to the rules of the course; (h) altering or interfering with the grading procedures; (i) plagiarizing, as
defined; and (j) knowingly and intentionally assisting another student in any of the above.

Plagiarism shall be defined as the act of incorporating ideas, words, or specific substance of another, whether purchased,
borrowed, or otherwise obtained, and submitting same to the university as one’s own work to fulfill academic requirements
without giving credit to the appropriate source. Plagiarism shall include but not be limited to (a) submitting work,
either in part or in whole, completed by another; (b) omitting footnotes for ideas, statements, facts, or conclusions
that belong to another; (c) omitting quotation marks when quoting directly from another, whether it be a paragraph,
sentence, or part thereof; (d) close and lengthy paraphrasing of the writings of another; (e) submitting another
person’s artistic works, such as musical compositions, photographs, paintings, drawings, or sculptures; and (f)
submitting as one’s own work papers purchased from research companies/
Academic and Disciplinary Sanctions: Cheating and plagiarism in connection with the academic program at the university
may warrant two separate and distinct courses of disciplinary action that may be applied concurrently in response to a violation
of this policy: (a) academic sanctions, such as grade modifications; 1 Approved April 2017 and (b) disciplinary
sanctions, such as probation, suspension, or expulsion. Academic sanctions are concerned with the student’s grades
and are the responsibility of the instructor involved. Disciplinary sanctions are concerned with the student’s records
and status on campus and shall be the responsibility of the university President or designated representative. The
Coordinator of Judiciary Procedures shall be the President’s representative in matters of student discipline.
● The student receives no credit on the assignment in which s/he was caught cheating.
● If the student is caught talking during an examination, the student’s exam is immediately taken. Giving the student no credit
is not mandatory, although only grading the material thus far completed may warrant enough of an academic sanction.
● If the student is caught on a cell phone during an examination the student receives no credit for the entire exam. As it is more
difficult to discern how long the student was using outside material on the exam, the student should not be given the benefit of
having the already completed material graded.
● If the student is caught using a “cheat sheet” or other written work to assist in cheating during an examination the student
should likewise receive no credit on the examination.
● If a student is caught using a cheating database online such as “Course Hero” the student should be confronted about the
matter. If the faculty member has incontestable proof that the student was uploading an examination to such a database, then
further punitive measures should be considered beyond academic sanctions.
● If a student is caught asking for answers online through Facebook (or other social media) regarding an examination, faculty
should “screen shot” the request (or otherwise document the request) and report it. Such reporting is to be discussed below.
● If a student is caught turning in work for another student (perhaps turning in a “quiz” on the behalf of an absent student) both
students should receive no credit for the assignment. If warranted, the instructor may give both students no credit for the
entirety of the portion of their final grade the assignment pertained to (i.e. the students receive no credit on the 15% of their
grade which was dedicated to quiz scores).
Cheating, Academic Integrity/honesty: There will be absolute zero tolerance towards cheating. All work that you complete
in this class should be your own and only your own. Any (yes any) form of cheating will automatically result in an “F” for the
whole course and direct disciplinary action with the Center for Students Rights and Responsibilities (which may include
punitive sanctions such as probation, suspension, or even, expulsion). Note that helping a fellow student during an exam is
cheating (both students involved will be given an “F”). Using any electronic device during exams or quizzes is cheating. Please
leave all electronics in your bag far away from your reach. Any electronic device (including phones, smart watches, earphones,
google glasses, tablets, etc.) in sight will be considered as cheating (even if it is not turned on!). This statement is a reminder to
uphold your obligation as a student at SDSU and to be honest in all work submitted and exams taken in this class and all
others. If others cheat you are at a disadvantage; thus, if you see any form of cheating, please report it to the instructor as soon
as you feel comfortable in doing so.

Addenda: The instructor reserves the right to make modifications to the syllabus. Any addendum will be announced in class
(you are responsible for attending class during such announcements).

Final Notes/Recommendations:

Student effort. Research has shown that studying 2-3 hrs per week per unit (ie 8-12 hrs per week) is key for success. Just
doing homework does not mean you are “done”.

Rapid Pace Note: This is a very fast paced course. Do not get behind! Learn the ideas presented in class before the next
lecture where you will surely deal with even more ideas! This course will likely run much more rapidly than your High School
Calculus Course!!

Student Responsibility: Read the textbook assignments thoroughly. Study all examples, diagrams, graphs, and comments in
the margins. If you do not understand a “step” in a worked example or proof, do not blame the book. Take it as feedback that
you may need to spend time reviewing ideas in a calculus or in a precalculus book (try the internet). Please visit your professor
or TA promptly when you need help.

Participation: Participation in class is encouraged. If you have a question, ask it! If you do not understand something, say so!
Any question that will help you to better understand the material is not stupid. Because of this, I expect you to be patient and
respectful of others who ask questions in an effort to do well.

Strive to understand ideas and concepts, and not just memorize formulas. Ideas and concepts are
definitions, strategies in solving problems, strategies in proving theorems, etc. For example, memorizing a formula and using it
correctly in problems does not mean you understand where the formula comes from. You should be able to evaluate sin(7π/6)
or sin(14π/3) quickly without having memorized the answers; this requires understanding the definition of the sine function on
the unit circle and practice!

How do you know you understand an idea? Ask yourself questions! i.e., Can you write down a definition and explain it to a
friend? Can you explain to a friend the ideas behind a theorem without just memorizing individual steps in its proof? Can you
apply algebra and trigonometric tricks in simplifying expressions without having to continually look up sample problems and
copy ideas? You will understand the solution to a problem when you get the feeling that all the “steps” are integrated in your
mind into the “whole picture.” If you feel flustered with several “steps” in the solution of a problem, then it will be difficult to
solve a similar problem on an exam. You should not feel like you are memorizing steps or going through isolated steps when
you understand a problem!

Final words: It is YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to get the grade you desire. There is no point in sending emails at the end of the
semester pleading your case or asking what you can do to raise your grade. In your college career, you will have some bad
instructors, some bad textbooks, some policies you don’t agree with, some exam questions you don’t like, etc. Do not use these
obstacles as a crutch or an excuse to be a victim. Your future is in YOUR hands. If you have a bad
instructor/book/policy/exam, accept it, and fight harder to get what you want. You belong here, we want you here, and we want
you to succeed! We’ll meet you where you are, but from there, it’s up to BOTH of us to get you where you need to be.
