WORKSHOPS . On most Thursdays we'll have a workshop. The worksheets will be posted here, usually a few days before the workshop meeting.
Your written solutions are due on the following Thursday. NO LATE WRITE-UPS WILL BE ACCEPTED WITHOUT GOOD CAUSE.
Here is a brief document on writing solutions to workshop problems . You should read it before you work on your first write-up.
Here is a document on the basics of Numint (or, how to use a TI calculator to obtain numerical approximations to integrals), by Profs. Michael O'Nan and Richard Lyons. You'll be implementing this little program on your calculator as you solve the first workshop.
Students should check this website often, since material is added and updated as the course proceeds. At the appropriate time, you'll find information on workshops and exam reviews, review sheets and formula sheets.
Here is a link to the SYLLABUS.
The FORMULA SHEET FOR EXAM 1 and the REVIEW PROBLEMS FOR EXAM 1 are posted on the announcements for Math 152. You can also find them by going to the general page of Math 152 and looking for "announcements" there.
TEXTBOOK. Rogawski's Calculus Early Transcendentals, W.H.Freeman, first edition. (Note: Starting in the Spring '12 semester, Math 152 will be using the second edition of this textbook.)
x The Rutgers "custom edition" has been augmented with some Rutgers "local matter," which is also available here. Other than that, the Rutgers custom edition and the standard edition are the same; you can use either one.
HOMEWORK. The homework grade is an important part of your total grade for the course. NO LATE HOMEWORK WILL BE ACCEPTED WITHOUT GOOD CAUSE.
CALCULATOR. A graphing calculator is required for this course; we do not insist on a particular brand or model. My advice is to buy a good calculator, since you will need it for several courses during your undergraduate studies. In this course, you'll use the calculator in solving homework and workshop problems. You should bring it to workshops. However, it will not be needed (nor will it be allowed) during the midterms or the final exam.
GRADING POLICY.
Midterm 1: 100 points;
Midterm 2: 100 points; Final exam: 200 points;
Workshop write-ups: 100 points;
Homework: 50 points.
Total: 550 points
