Meeting Times
Monday, Wednesday 6:00-9:45 PM
Note that this class meets only ten times during the entire semester
and that the final examination is given during the last meeting, so that,
effectively, there are only nine working class sessions during the entire
summer semester. Thus, each single session is the equivalent of approximately 1½ regular semester weeks, making it extremely important that students
attend each and every class meeting.
Calculus Applications and Technology, Third Edition, By Ed Tomastik.
It is also highly recommended that you check out other Calculus
books in the Library.
We will be making some use of the TI-82 graphing calculator in class. You will need to bring a TI graphing calculator (either 82,83,85 or 86) to class each time. You will be able to use and for some questions, you will need to use, your calculator on the exams, quizzes and the final. If you already have another graphing calculator, see me to see if you can use it in this class.
Departmental Calculator Policy
Calculators that can perform symbolic operations or store symbolic formulas (such as the HP 28 or 48 or TI-92 or 89) are not allowed, even if all programs are erased before the exam begins. If you bring a calculator to the exam, make sure it does not do alphanumeric manipulation. The instructor may randomly ask for calculators and check programs stored in memory. No alphanumeric formulas stored as programs are allowable. Discovery of such material will result in confiscation of the exam paper of the person using that calculator, and assignment of a grade of 0 for the exam.
The class has a listserv mailing list set up. The name of the list is
WMA106-L and it is hosted on uconnvm.uconn.edu. Every member of
the class will be automatically signed up for the list upon filling out the
and is expected to participate in the discussions.
Posting a Message to the Mailing List
To post a message to the mailing list, simply address it to
WMA106-L@uconnvm.uconn.edu. Other than that, it may be handled in
the same way as any other email message.
