Course
Description: MAT
191, Calculus I, covers Chapters 1-5 from the textbook: Differential and
integral calculus of one variable: limits, continuity, derivatives and
application of derivatives, integrals, Fundamental Theorem of Calculus, inverse
functions.
Text: James Stewart, Essential Calculus, Second
Edition, Brooks/Cole, 2013.
Objectives: After completing MAT 191 the student should be able to:
Prerequisites: MAT 153 or equivalent with a grade of "C" or
better.
Grades: Grades will be based on three in‑class 80-minutes
examinations (60% total), a comprehensive final examination (25%), and quizzes,
homework, attendance and other assignments (15%) for the remainder.
The exact grading system for your section is the following:
Each of the three
80-minutes exams will be graded on a 100 scale, then the sum of the scores
is divided by 5 and denoted by E.
Homework will be due every Monday, and
each homework is worth 5 points. No late homework will be accepted. The average
of all homework scores is denoted by H.
5 to 10 minutes quizzes will be given every Monday, and will be graded on a scale
from 1 to 5. The average of the quizzes scores is denoted by Q.
There are also 5 points awarded for attendance and class participation. This portion of the grade is
denoted by A.
The final exam
will be graded out of a maximum possible 200, then the score is divided by 8
and denoted by F.
To determine your final
grade, compute E+H+Q+A+F. The maximum is 100, and the grade will be given
by the rule:
A: 93‑100; A‑: 90‑92; B+: 87‑89; B:
83‑86; B‑: 80‑82
C+: 77‑79; C: 73‑76; C‑: 70‑72; D+:
67‑69; D: 60‑66; F: Less than 60.
WebWorK: More
practice problems are available in WebWork: go to http://math.csudh.edu/webwork2/17Fall_MAT191_Raianu/
and log in using as user name the part before the “@” in the
email address that you have given to my.csudh.edu, and your student ID as
password (you can change the password after the first log in). Use Set0 to
learn how to input your answers. Then try to do more problems after you
complete each homework assignment. You
should download and print one set, work on the problems, then input your
answers. After you try each problem at least once you have the option to
"show me other" similar problems. You can also view the correct
answer and the solution (if available) in order to understand what you did
wrong. You can also use "email instructor" to ask for help. Help for
these problems will be available by email or during office hours.
Makeups: No makeup examinations or
quizzes will be given. If you must miss an examination for a legitimate reason,
discuss this, in advance, with me, and I may then substitute the relevant score
from your final examination for the missing grade.
Accommodations for Students with
Disabilities: Cal State Dominguez Hills adheres to all applicable federal,
state, and local laws, regulations, and guidelines with respect to providing reasonable
accommodations for students with temporary and permanent disabilities. If you
have a disability that may adversely affect your work in this class, I encourage
you to register with Student disAbility
Resource Center (SdRC) and to talk with me about how
I can best help you. All disclosures of disabilities will be kept strictly
confidential. Please note: no accommodation may be made until you register with
the SdRC in WH D-180. For information call (310)
243-3660 or to use telecommunications Device for the Deaf, call (310) 243-2028.
Academic Integrity: The mathematics department does
not tolerate cheating. Students who have questions or concerns about academic
integrity should ask their professors or the counselors in the Student
Development Office, or refer to the University Catalog for more information.
(Look in the index under "academic integrity".)
Technology: Symbolic calculators, such as
TI-89, TI-92 or TI-nspire CAS are not acceptable for
this course.
Exam rules: Students must leave their CSUDH
student ID on their desk for the duration of the exam. Cell phones, iPhones,
iPods, or PDAs of any kind, as well as headphones, may not be used at all
during a test. Students are discouraged from leaving the exam room during the
period of the exam. Restroom breaks must be kept under five minutes and are
limited to one/exam. You will be penalized 5 points if you are gone more than
five minutes. No more than one student can be out of the room at any given time
during an exam. If a student finds it necessary to leave the room under these
circumstances, they are not permitted to access computer terminals, smoke, read
notes/books, or talk with others. If a student is found engaging in this
behavior, appropriate disciplinary action will be taken. Whenever a student
leaves the room, they must turn their exam upside down on their desk. All book
bags or similar items will be deposited in the front of the class for the
duration of the test
