Make sure that you have the SECOND EDITION of the textbook by Rogawski, and that the book has the words Early Tanscendentals written on the front cover (written sideways on the golden strip at the right edge of the front cover). If you have an ebook, then make sure that it is the second edition with early transcendentals. Other versions of the Rogawski textbook are useless in this course. The homework problems from the textbook are listed here: Homework. Homework is always collected in recitation (Tuesdays) at the beginning of recitation.

Lecturer:
Vladimir Scheffer. Email: scheffer@math.rutgers.edu. Office hours: Monday and Thursday from 12:10 pm to 1:30 pm in Hill 246.

Grading scheme for sections 10, 11, 12:
The final exam counts for 200 points.
Exam 1 counts for 100 points.
Exam 2 counts for 100 points.
The writeups of the Tuesday workshops count for 60 points.
The homework from the textbook counts for 40 points.
This way, the maximum course score is 500 points. Your course grade will be determined by this score.

Important note:
There are students who do not hand in workshop writeups or textbook homework because they think that the 60 points for writeups and the 40 points for homework are not many points. These students are surprised at the end of the course when their course grade is much lower than one would expect from their exam scores. The 60+40=100 points for writeups and homework are a significant part of the course grade. Getting a zero on writeups and homework is like getting a zero on Exam 1 or Exam 2. This is why it is very important to hand in workshop writeups and textbook homework during the Tuesday class.

The exams:
The exams are closed book. Crib sheets are not allowed. You may not use any notes during an exam. Calculators are not allowed. All work must be shown. We will NOT provide formula sheets for exams.

The workshops:
During the Tuesday recitation, you will work in small groups on the workshop problems for that day. Your teaching assistant will tell you which of the workshop problems must be written up. You have to do the writeup without consulting other people, even though you worked on the workshop problems in small groups during the Tuesday class. The writeup must be in your own words, and the exposition is just as important as the mathematics. The writeup must consist of complete English sentences arranged in coherent paragraphs. The writeup is due at the start of the next recitation. Late writeups will not be accepted.

The textbook homework:
The homework problems will be announced during lecture. They will be due at the next recitation. Late homework will not be accepted.
