QCal Poly - Department of Mathematics - Morgan Sherman

Calculus III

Math 143, Winter 2013, Prof. Sherman. [Email: sherman1]
Text: "Calculus", 6th edition, by James Stewart. [Note: If you buy the book in the campus bookstore it will have the subtitle "with selected classics problem sets". Either version is fine for this class.]
Topics: We will cover Chapters 11-14. Calculus III is split into two main topics: Series and Vector Calculus. The former begins with the notion of an infinite sum of numbers and culminates with the development of Taylor Series which allows one to replace certain functions with infinite sums. The latter studies vector-valued functions in the plane as well as 3-dimensional space.
Classroom: 38-221
Office Hours: M 4-5; T 10-11; R 4-5; F 10-11
Exams: We will have two midterms, a final exam, and weekly quizzes. See the calendar below for dates of quizzes and midterms. The final exam time is determined by the University Final Exam Schedule. On all quizzes and exams no books, calculators, notes, etc. will be allowed. No make up exams will be offered. You must take the final exam in order to pass the class.
Homework and Quizzes: I will suggest problems from the book (see below). Every Friday (on non-exam weeks) we will have a quiz which will test your knowledge of these problems. The remainder of class on these days will be dedicated to answering homework questions. You may miss one quiz without penalty if you contact me ahead of time and obtain my approval. You may not take any quiz at a different time or day.
Grade: Quizzes 22%, Midterm I 22%, Midterm II 22%, Final Exam 34%
