The access code includes access to MyMathLab, an online copy of the textbook, an online copy of the student's solutions manual, a multi-media library including lecture videos, and more. The textbook used in this course is PreCalculus Enhanced with Graphing Utilities 7th ed. by Sullivan.ISBN-13:?978-01321199911?(MyMathLab Access Code only)The MyMathLab course ID for this class is _______.IMPORTANT:?If you are currently unable to purchase?an Access Code?-or- you are waiting for your Access Code, you can still register with MML and begin your course work on the first day of class. Pearson allows all students a grace period before an Access Code is required. Please get started on your course work right away.CalculatorsScientific calculators are allowed, but a graphing calculator (TI-83, TI-84, TI-84+) is strongly recommended. However, certain models (TI-89’s, TI-92’s, TI-Nspire, etc...) are not allowed on quizzes, tests, or exams.Course DescriptionMajor topics include: trigonometric and circular functions, inverse trigonometric functions, identities, equations, solution of triangles, complex numbers, vectors, parametric equations, polar coordinates and their applications.Course Objectives1. The student will communicate a knowledge of trigonometry.2. The student will apply the knowledge learned in this course.3. The student will demonstrate an ability to analyze the concepts in this course.Course LinksMyCourses Log In: ?

INFORMATION: Class Number: 2459Course Location: SE-UP-217Meeting Days: TuThClass Times: 7:00 – 8:45amIMPORTANT DATES: Course Dates: February 11, 2019 – May 10, 2019Last Day to Drop and Receive Refund: February 15, 2019Last Day to Withdraw and receive a letter grade of “W”: April 7, 2019 (60% point)Financial Aid: INFORMATION:Study Skills: First and foremost, have a weekly schedule. Have a planned time to work on this class each week. You should expect to spend 8-10 hours per week on this course outside of the classroom. It's difficult to spend 8-10 hours over the weekend, so it’s to your benefit to carve out some time during the week. This allows you time to let the ideas sink in, and it also takes some of the pressure off as due dates approach.Second, try to get ahead of the posted schedule. Every semester, I have students who email me about something going horribly wrong at the last minute (computer crashes, etc). Those students who are ahead of schedule have time to adjust to those last minute emergencies.Third, get help when (or even before) you need it. You have a number of resources available to you through SPC. You can visit the Learning Support Commons and work with a tutor (I often suggest scheduling your homework/study time in the LSC so tutors are available whenever you need them). You can utilize online tutoring through Smarthinking. Lastly, read the sections in the etext; take good notes during class, watch the videos; seek out other resources; etc. While everything you'll need to know can come from the classroom, etext and MML supplements, there is a wealth of additional information and alternative explanations out there. \s \s Test Prerequisites: (1) you must have a score > 60% on the Practice Test, (2) you must have a score > 60% on each relevant homework assignment. If you do not satisfy these prerequisites, the test will not be active in MyLab Math and your test score will be zero.GRADING SCALE:A 90% - 100%B80% - 89.9%C70% - 79.9%D 60% - 69.9%F 0% - 59.9%Make-up and Retake Policy:There are NO Make-up (or Retake) tests during the semester, if you miss a test your score will be zero. At the discretion of the instructor, one Makeup (or Retake) test will be made available (at the end of the semester) to replace a prior low score. You must have a score > 60% on the practice makeup test prior to taking the makeup test in class or the test will not be active in MyLab Math and you will not be eligible for the makeup test.Extra Credit:A. All Tests5%by obtaining score > 90% on the Practice test.B. Test 15%submission of a critical thinking paper, after the test, which reflects on your test results and presents a get well plan for your preparation of the remaining three testsC. Final Exam 5%by obtaining score > 90% on the Practice Exam.Notes:(1) there will be enough time allocated to take each test and the final exam twice during the class period, (2) at the discretion of the instructor, final exam score can replace one lower test score, (3) the 5% extra credit means 5% of the student’s actual test score.MAC 1114 Course ScheduleWeekDateSpiralTuesdayThursdayHW Due Dates*12/11/191Course OverviewSec 1.5Sec 1.2/2.3Appendix A.22/17/1911:59pm22/18/191Sec 8.1gLab 1Sec 8.2lec check 1 (in class)2/24/1911:59pm32/25/191Sec 8.3/8.4gLab 2Sec 6.1lec check 2 (in class)3/3/1911:59pm43/4/191Test Readiness ReviewSec 6.2gLab 3Sec 6.3Test 1 (in class)3/10/1911:59pm53/11/19-Spring BreakSpring Break63/18/191Sec 9.4gLab 4Sec 9.1/9.5lec check 3 (in class)3/24/1911:59pm73/25/192Sec 6.4/6.5gLab 5Sec 6.6/8.5lec check 4 (in class)Quiz 1 (take-home)3/31/1911:59pm84/1/192Sec 7.1gLab 6Sec 7.2lec check 5 (in class)Quiz 1 (take-home) due4/7/1911:59pm94/8/192Sec 7.3gLab 7Sec 7.4lec check 6 (in class)Quiz 2 (take-home)4/14/1911:59pm104/15/192Sec 7.5gLab 8Sec 7.6lec check 7 (in class)Quiz 2 (take-home) due 4/21/1911:59pm114/22/192Test Readiness ReviewSec 9.3lec check 8 (in class)Sec 9.3Test 2 (in class)4/28/1911:59pm124/29/192Sec 9.6/9.7Makeup or Retake Test5/5/1911:59pm135/6/19-Final Exam (in class)* The HW due dates are recommended dates only, to be used as a guide to stay “on schedule”; all HW assignments can be worked and re-worked throughout the semester to receive full credit.\s ................
