Mathematics 116 Calculus II Spring 2008 Instructor: Alan Stein Contents Meeting Times Attendance Textbook Listserv Mailing List Notes for Mathematics 116 -- These are organized along the lines of this course. Problem Sets, Quizzes and Examinations Group Projects Interactive Demonstrations Final Examination Links — These are organized by topic. Sample Questions from Exams and Quizzes — This is a large PDF file Meeting Times Section 31: MWF 8:00-9:10 Section 32: MWF 9:30-10:40 Attendance Note that this class meets only twenty times during the entire semester and that the final examination is given during the last meeting, so that, effectively, there are only nineteen working class sessions during the entire summer semester. Thus, each single session is the equivalent of nearly a full regular semester week, making it extremely important that students attend each and every class meeting.

Problem Sets, Quizzes and Examinations

There will be quizzes most Fridays, along with one, two or three hour long exams during the course of the semester. The exams will be announced at least two classes beforehand, and will probably be announced even before that on the class mailing list. There will also be a number of graded problem sets during the course of the semester. Each problem set will be worth 50 points. Specific policies regarding the completion of problem sets are available elsewhere on this web site.

It is important to note that each set will have a due date. It is permissible to submit completed sets prior to the due date; no sets will be accepted after the due date.

Each quiz will be worth 10 points. Most problem sets will graded on the basis of 100 points but will be worth 50 points. In other words, when calculating averages, half the grade will be added in. The regular exam will be worth 100 points. The final examination will be worth 150 points.
