Grades will be determined as follows: The course will be curved to have a right distribution of grades.


Calculators

You are not allowed to use calculators on quizzes and exams, although problems in LON CAPA often require calculator. On the exams and quizzes you do not have to simplify the final answer or find the decimal approximation. I want to see that you know how to solve the problems and simplification of the answer is irrelevant here.


Homework

All graded homework will be done online, using the LON CAPA system. Please, do not neglect it! Although it counts for 10% only, in many cases these 10% decides whether you will get A or B. It also shows your attitude which is importnant in the borderline cases.


Quizzes

Quizzes will be during recitations on Thursdays. No makup quizzes, but the lowest two scores from the quizzes will be dropped (that allows you to miss two quizzes without penalty).

Quiz #1: Thursday 01/18/18. 4 problems 20 minutes. Vectors, dot product, cross product, scalar and vector projections. Area of a trangle and paralleogram, volume of a parallelpiped, equations of lines and planes.

Quiz #2: Thursday 01/25/18. 4 problems 20 minutes. Classification of surfaces, tangent lines to the curves, length of the curves.

Quiz #3: Thursday 02/01/18. 4 problems 20 minutes. 1 problem for finding a parametrization of a curve of intersection of two surfaces, 2 problems for finding the curvature, 1 problem about limits and continuity.

Quiz #4: Thursday 02/08/18. 4 problems 20 minutes. Partial derivatives. Implicit differentiation. Equations of tangent planes. Some of the problems will be taken from my notes verbatim.
