WELCOME TO MATH 1312 (CALCULUS II)
Section 17425
AT THE
THE UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS AT EL PASO
FOR THE
FALLO 2020 SEMESTER
Web Assign Class Key 4061-5258
Please read this syllabus before school starts. It represents a contract between you the student and me the instructor. If after reading the syllabus, you think that the way I run this course is not for you, you have plenty of time to register for a traditionally taught course. Remember that online instruction is not for everyone.
Before you continue reading, please set up your UTEP email account so that it is automatically forwarded to the email account you check most often. You will receive a lot of emails and it is important that you read them in a timely manner. Any emails you use at UTEP have to be your UTEP emails.
I am giving class early access to both Blackboard and Web Assign. The Web Assign key to register is 4061 5258. If you input a non-UTEP email in Web Assign, you will be dropped from Web Assign.
The Calendar file summaries all the semester dates.
Drop Policy:
The UTEP Fall 2020 drop deadline is October 30, 2020. The College of Science will remain aligned with the University and not approve any drop requests after that date.
Incomplete Policy:
All grades of Incomplete must be submitted by an electronic contract created by the instructor. Although UTEP will allow a maximum of one year to complete this contract, the College of Science requests it be limited to less than a month. A grade of Incomplete is only used in extraordinary circumstances confined to a limited event such as a missed exam, project, or lab. If the student has missed a significant amount of work (e.g. multiple assignments or tasks), a grade of Incomplete is not appropriate or warranted.
This course is 100% ONLINE. You will need a computer with an internet connection and up-to-date browser to take this course. You will also need a scanner or smart phone app that will allow you to upload written work as a pdf file.
Each grade is rounded and the averages are rounded. This means if you have a course average of 89.3, it is rounded to 89 and the grade is B, not A.
Instructor:
Dr. Nancy Marcus
Online Office Hours in Discussion Room of Blackboard:
I will answer all questions in Blackboard via the Discuss Forum within 6 hours. For the following times, I will answer when I am available. The reason that I ask you to post questions about the course or about a particular problem in the Blackboard forum is because it mimics raising your hand in class. Your question and my answer is viewed by the entire course and they can chime in also. If your question is personal in nature, please use email. For set office hours where you will get an immediate answer: Tuesday: 8:00 – 10:00 pm, Friday: 8:00 pm – 10:00 pm, Sunday: 8:00 pm – 10:00 pm.
I monitor homework all during the day and when I see that you have missed a problem, I will usually email you the solution of a similar problem – even though they are all located in Blackboard
E-Text Test:
Required: Calculus II 11e by Larson, Hostetler, Edwards (note: The Written Lectures in Blackboard are essentially the text expanded and written in conversation tone.)
Graphing Calculator:
Your choice. There are a lot of free online calculators. Please download the free graphing app called Graph 4.4.2 at so you can read the graphs I will email you quite often.
Homework Environment:
Required: Web Assign Code – You have to purchase this within two weeks of the start of the course. Purchase from the Web Assign site and you can also purchase the e-text there. You can also purchase both from . You access Web Assign by login.. You cannot use a non-UTEP email account in Web Assign. If you do, I will alert you and if it is no changed, I will have to drop you from the course.

The written lectures in Blackboard are essentially the textbook expanded with added examples. The Problem Solutions in Blackboard contains hundreds of problems worked out in detail that are similar to your homework problems. If you need a lecture or problem solution expanded, let me know.
All homework, chapter exams, optional replacement quizzes, final exam and optional course replacement quiz will be taken online from computers of your choice via Web Assign. The optional replacement quizzes, and final exam are four-hour timed exams. Once you open the site, the clock starts. If you leave the computer, the clock keeps ticking. So, don’t start these quizzes/final exams until you have the four hours to devote to the task. Everyone once in awhile there will be glitch on Web Assign giving more than the allowed four hours. If you go past the four hours, only the answers created during the four hours will be given any credit. The dates for all the assignments, quizzes, and exams are located below and on the summary calendar.
There are 25 homework Web Assign homework assignments (two per week). Every problem in each homework assignment has a code. Under Problem Solutions in Blackboard, you will find a similar problem identified by the same code worked out in detail. For Assignments 1-7, you have three tries to get the answer correct on the homework assignments. For Assignments 8-16, you have two tries to get the answer correct on the homework assignments. For Assignments 17-25, you have one try to get the answer correct on the homework assignments. You will be required to submit a work product for a portion of each homework assignment. The work product must be uploaded by the problem in your own handwriting, not typed. If the work opens sideways, upside down, or is unreadable, it will not receive any credit. Work products in the Show Your Work box or emailed will not be graded. If you input an answer in a WA box for the problems that require a work product, the work product will not be graded and the problem will receive a grade of zero. A work product is defined as showing all the steps and providing explanations of what you did – not the Cookie Cutter steps in Web Assign. The reason for this is that we want you to create the work product without the aid of knowing whether the problem is correct ahead of time. For the other problems that do not required a work product, you may still upload work if you want those problems considered for partial credit.
Many of the directions will indicate that an exact answer is required. If you have trouble imputing the exact answer for a problem that does not require a work product, just upload the answer.
There are three Web Assign chapter exams posted at 8:00 am on one morning and due the following day by 11:30 pm.
A work product for a portion of each exam will be required. Create your work, save it as a pdf file, and then upload it into Web Assign. You many also work your problem, scan it, and upload the scan. If you use the scan method, we need to be able to open your file and read your file. If we cannot read your work, you will not receive credit for the problem. Therefore, check it out before the exam. Work submitted by email will not be accepted. Work submitted in the Show Your Work box section will not be accepted. Work that opens upside down or sideways or is typed will not be graded. Work that is created on the WA sheet will not be graded. Work that is unreadable will not be graded. If you input your answer in WA, then your work product will not be graded and the problem will receive a grade of zero.
There are ten optional replacement Quizzes taken in Web Assign. These optional replacement quizzes are four-hour timed quizzes and you have one try. The clock starts the moment you open the quiz and does not stop until the clock runs out. The grade on these replacement quizzes will replace any lower or missing grade (assignment or chapter exam – not final exam) taken before the quiz date. The problems on these optional quizzes are a computer generated random selection of problems on the assignments/exams taken before the date of the replacement quiz.
There are no make-up assignments or exams in this course – no matter the reason. The optional replacement quizzes represent make up quizzes.
The four-hour timed final exam will be taken on Web Assign on any computer. It will be posted at 8:00 am on December 7, 2020 and is due by 11:30 pm on December 8, 2020. NOTE: The clock starts the moment you open the exam. The problems on the final exam are randomly chosen problems from the three chapter exams by the computer. Course resources in Blackboard and Web Assign will not be available during or after the final exam. Work products may be required. If your score on the final exam is less than 50, your course grade is F – no matter your course average.
There is an optional course replacement quiz posted on December 10, 2020 at 8:00 am and due by 11:30 pm on December 11, 2020.. It is a four-hour timed Web Assign exam and you have one try. The ten problems on the replacement quiz are a random selection of problems taken from assignment and exam problems. Work products may be required. If your grade on this exam is higher than your course average, it will replace the course average.
If you miss 5 assignments/exams in a row or you miss a total of 10 homework assignments/exams throughout the semester before the drop date of October 30, 2020, you will be dropped from the course for Lack of Participation. After that date, no drop requests will be approved. A low score (less than 25) represents a missed assignment/exam. The optional replacement quizzes reduce this number.
All these rules and polices resulted in a pass rate (A, B, C) for the fall 2020 semester of 89%.
Please email me a special nickname that you create for this course only. I will post all the grades of the class where students will be identified only by their self-created passwords. Only you and I will know your password; therefore, you are assured that no one else will know your grade unless you decide to share your grade or password. I want you to see your grades so that you can keep track of your average and let me know if I have recorded a grade incorrectly (it happens), and I want you to see what everyone else is doing in the class. If I don’t receive a password from you within two weeks of the start of the class, I will assign you one.
The course instructor is Dr. Nancy Marcus. You can reach her at anytime via the Blackboard Discussion Board (public forum) or her email at nancymarcus@utep.edu (private message).
The course is run through both the Blackboard and the Web Assign environments. The text is an e-text. However, if you are more comfortable with a hard copy of the book, you can purchase a hard copy. You can purchase the e-text at the UTEP bookstore or at , and the Web Assign code at the UTEP Bookstore or . You will be given temporary access to Web Assign but will need to purchase the code with two weeks of the start of class. The e-text we will use in this course is Calculus II 11e Edition of Calculus by Larson. Please purchase the book and Web Assign code on or before the first day of class. The Written Lectures in Blackboard are essentially the book expanded and written in conversational tone.
All written lectures and problem solutions, as well as the e-text and web assign can be accessed through Blackboard. All homework and replacement quizzes and exam are taken online inside the Web Assign environment. The chapter exams and final exam are taken in Web Assign. The Discussion Board within Blackboard is a forum where students post questions and the instructor and peer leader answer these questions.
For every homework assignment, there is a list of similar worked out problems in Problem Solutions in Blackboard.
Your username and password for Blackboard are your UTEP username and password. Your username for Web Assign is the part of your UTEP email before @miners. Your password for Web Assign is your UTEP ID number followed by a T. Once you get in, you can change both.
What is your time commitment to this course? On average, 12 hours per week if your mathematics background is good, to 16 to 20 hours per week if your mathematics background is weak. Where did I get this number? If you were in a traditional course, you would be spending three hours of class time and for every hour of lecture; you should be spending at last three hours doing homework.
If you look to the right on the MATH Fall 2019 Grade Book I have listed several categories, which in the past have predicted trouble for students if the category is highlighted. If you have one or more of these categories highlighted, you need to reach out for help early and often. The categories are:
1 – GPA less than 2.5
2 – More than one attempt at MATH 1411 where W counts as an attempt
3 – Already attempted MATH 1312 at least once
4 – More than one year since you had your last math course
All the post dates and due dates are listed below. Be sure to mark your calendar with these dates before the class starts.
Homework with specific due dates are posted in Web Assign (see below). If you have questions about the e-text, the video and written lectures, the worked problems and examples, post those questions to the Discussion Board. The Discussion Board is divided into assignments, exams, and replacement quizzes. Questions and answers may be viewed by everyone in the class. Our objective is to use the Discussion Board as if the instructor were in a classroom answering your questions at the board.
One inappropriate posting will mean dismissal from the Discussion Board for a few days. A series of inappropriate postings to the Discussion Board will mean dismissal from the course.
Web Assign Code:
Required: If you are repeating the course, your Web Assign code is still good.
Calculator:
Required: Any graphing calculator or you can use the WAPlot in Web Assign. There are also links below to free online graphing calculators.
Grade:
1/3 of your course grade is based on your online homework average.
1/3 of your course grade is based on the average grade of the four end-of-chapter online exams – End-of-Chapter exams dates are listed below.
1/3 of your course grade is based on your final exam grade.
You must make at least 50 on your final exam and at least 70 overall to pass this course.
90 – 100 = A, 80 – 89 = B. 70 – 79 = C, 60 – 69 equals D, and 0 – 59 equals F. If you want to count this course toward the core or as a prerequisite for other courses, the minimum grade is C. Please note that a grade of 89.4 is rounded to 89 for a B, not an A.
Second Chance:
If you do not like your course grade, a second computer-administered Web Assign final exam will be offered (see dates above). If the second try at the final exam results in a score higher than your course average, I will initiate a grade change.
Make-Up Policy:
There are no make-ups for specific missed homework assignments, replacement quizzes, exams, or the final exam for any reason. However, during the semester, I will post ten, four-hour timed, replacement quizzes which are optional. If you choose to take one, the score will replace one lower or missing homework or weekend exam score. If you miss the final exam or you do not like your course grade, there is an optional Course Replacement Exam. If the score on this exam is higher than your course average, it will replace your course average.
Your weekly assignments are posted at the beginning of the week; one is due mid-week and one is due at the end of the week. Chapter exams are posted on Saturday morning and due Sunday night.
Academic Integrity Policy:
Cheating on homework, quizzes, or tests will be dealt with in accordance with University regulations. This means automatic referral to any adjudication by the Dean of Students. During the final exam, you may not use notes, text, or an unauthorized calculator, and you may not at any time speak to other students or refer to their papers.
Course Description:
Continuation of Calculus I: Application of Integration, Integration techniques, L’Hopitals Rule, improper integrals, and infinite series, Prerequisite: MATH 1411

1. Use a definite integral to find the area of a region bounded by two curves.
2. Find the volume of a solid of revolution by the disk and shell methods.
3. Find the length of a curve and the surface area of a surface area of revolution.
4. Find the work done by a constant force and by a variable force.
5. Find the centers of mass and centroids.
6. Find the fluid pressure and fluid force.
7. Find an antiderivative using Integration by parts

12. Determine whether an infinite series converges or diverges.
13. Find the Taylor polynomial approximation of elementary functions.
14. Find the radius and interval of convergence of a power series.
15. Differentiate and integrate power series.
16. Represent functions by power series.
17. Find a Taylor or Maclaurin series for a function.
Steps to Cover for each section of each chapter of the required text:
Step 1: Read the e-textbook covering a specific chapter and section and watch the videos of the various pages. (The textbook is accessible through Web Assign).
Step 2: Read the written lectures, created by Dr. Marcus, covering a specific chapter and section (the lectures are accessible through both Blackboard).
Step 3: Review the Problem Solutions covering problems in a specific chapter and section (the tutorials are accessible through both Blackboard and Web Assign). There is a code in the upper left-hand corner of each problem. It lists the chapter and the problem – you will find a similar problem posted under Problem Solutions in Blackboard.
Step 4: Work the problems assigned in Web Assign (the problems are accessible through Web Assign). Common problem students experience at this step is what I call the “Video Game Syndrome.” The students try to do the problems in their head. The most efficient way to do your home work is to work the problem out on paper and then look for the correct answer among the choices. You will be allowed three tries for each homework assignment; the last submission will be the grade that is counted. Do not exit Web Assign without saving your homework; if you do, you work will be lost and one of the three tries will have been used.
Step 5: If you think your answer in Web Assign is correct and Web Assign has counted it wrong, you do not need to contact me. The Peer Leader will check all the problems counted wrong for all students and award credit if appropriate. If your problem is scored wrong by Web Assign and you do not know why, work out the problem in detail on a piece of paper, take a photograph of your work with your cell phone and email it to me and I will analyze your work.
Step 6: If you experience problems with the homework after completing steps 1 through 5, post a question to the Discussion Board. The postings in the Discussion Board will be categorized by chapters; therefore, click on the chapter for which you have a question.
Step 7: An exam will be administered after Chapters 7, 8, and 9. You have just one try, all helpful hints and links to the e-book will be disabled, and you may not ask for help.
Note: All homework assignments may contain material from previously assigned homework, if, in the opinion of the instructor, you need more work in these areas.
Examples of how a replacement quiz works:
As soon as every assignment and exam and quiz are posted to the grade book, I will place the grade book in Blackboard for you to review.
• The first column in the Blackboard grade book is your special password.
• The second column represents how many assignments/exams you have missed. If you have missed any, the cell is highlighted in brown with the number of missed assignments/exams.
• The third set of 32 numbers represent your homework assignments; if a cell is highlighted in pink, you did not turn in that assignment. If a number within the cell is red, it means that the score is a replacement quiz score that replaced a lower initial score.
• The fourth set of four numbers represents your exam scores; if a cell is highlighted in pink, you have missed that exam.
• The fifth set of numbers represents your homework average, your exam average, and a cell for your final exam.
• The sixth number represents your course average as of the date I sent you the summary.
• The last set of numbers represents the scores on your replacement quizzes. If a replacement quiz replaces a lower or missing assignment/exam, the assignment/exam and replacement quiz will be colored red.
Example 1: The highlighted cell indicates you did not turn in that homework. The red number within the highlighted cell indicates that you score 100 on a replacement quiz and it replaced the no grade of a missed homework.
