Other Options:

2. Hard copy with MyMathLab: ISBN 978-0-321-96516-5

Topical outline: Techniques of integration; improper integrals; Calculus of parametric and polar curves; Infinite Sequences and Series; Tests for convergence; Power series and Taylor series; Vectors and Three-Dimensional Geometry.

Student Learning Outcomes: Students who successfully complete Math 2120 will be able to:

1. Compute definite, indefinite, and improper integrals using the various techniques of integration.

2. Sketch curves described by parametric equations or polar coordinates and use calculus to study these curves.

3. Compute the limit of a convergent sequence algebraically.

4. Determine whether or not a sequence converges.

5. Apply the limit rules for sequences to find the limit of a sequence.

6. Compute the sum of a geometric series or a telescoping series.

7. Use tests (integral, comparison, limit comparison, alternating series, ratio, and root) to determine whether a series converges.

8. Determine whether a series is absolutely convergent.

9. Compute the radius of convergence and interval of convergence of a power series.

10. Represent functions by their Maclaurin and Taylor series and determine the interval of convergence.

11. Multiply, divide, integrate, and differentiate power series.

12. Perform operations on vectors (scalar multiplication, length of a vector, unit vectors, dot product, cross product, angle between two vectors, project one vector onto another).

13. Use the parametric equation of a line to solve problems.

14. Sketch the graphs of vector functions; differentiate and integrate vector functions; find the tangent vector to a vector function.

15. Find the arc length and curvature of a curve.

Requirements: Materials- Students should bring a math notebook (with graph paper), pencils, a Scientific calculator. You must enroll in the workshop that corresponds to this course.

Scientific Calculator: You MUST have a scientific calculator with you, in class, every day, including exam days. The solutions to some problems require their use!

Grading system: Weights and categories

2 Midterms=35%

Final exam: 35%

Homework/Class Participation 15%/15%

Total = 100%

Missing an exam: The score of only one missing exam will be substituted by the score of the Final Exam. Any other missing exams will count as zero.

Calculator policy: Scientific calculators may be used during the lectures and tests.

GRADE DISTRIDUTION

90-100% A

80-89% B

70-79% C

60-69% D

0-59% F

Important Notes

• It is your responsibility to drop the course for any reason. Do not expect me to drop you if you stop attending class.

• Failure to take the Final Exam will result a grade of F in the course.

• Each student is expected to contribute to each class session by arriving on time, being attentive, and participating in the class discussions. Disruptive conversations, eating and sleeping are not acceptable behavior in the classroom environment.

• Students are expected to stay the whole class period. Please avoid disrupting your classmates by arriving late or leaving early.

• No cellular phones, text messengers, etc.

• Cellular phones cannot be used as calculators.

• The use of a scientific or graphing calculator is allowed for homework and exams.

• Cheating during any exam will result in severe consequences such as receiving a failing grade or being dropped from the course as well as being reported as academically dishonest. All phones and notes must be out of reach during exams.

• My job is to teach you the material to the best of my ability, answer your questions, and administer the course. Your job is to take complete notes, turn in class assignments on time, follow instructions, and study.

• Adult content is used in this college course. Anything on this syllabus may be changed, so please pay attention to any announcements made in class.

ADA statement: Reasonable accommodation will be provided to any student who is registered with the Office of Students with Disabilities and requests needed accommodation.

Academic honesty statement: Students are expected to do their own work. Copying the work of others, cheating on exams, and similar violations will be reported to the University Discipline Officer, who has the authority to take disciplinary actions against students who violate the standards of academic honesty.

Student responsibilities: Students are responsible for being aware of all announcements that are made in class, such as changes in exam dates, due dates of homework and papers, and cancellation of class due to instructor’s absence. Students are responsible for announcements made on days that they are absent.

Students must check their CSULA email account regularly for information from the instructor and the Department. Failure to do so may result in missed deadlines or other consequences that might adversely affect students. Note that you can forward this email account to any other account of your choosing.
