FINAL EXAM: 5:30-7:30 pm Thursday, December 16, in Fisher 139
Getting Help:
If you can't get your questions answered during the
"activity" part of class time, try these resources:
-
The Math Learning Center in Fisher 128
- Walk-in hours:
??? Sunday 7pm-9pm
??? M-Th 10am-5pm and 7-9pm
??? Fri. 10am-noon
- or set up a regular appointment
(STRONGLY recommended if you did not receive "B" or better
in Calculus I).
- Tami's office hours: Tu/Th 10am-noon (tentative)
in Fisher 310
- Chad's office hours: Tu/Th/Fri 2-3pm in Fisher 223A
- Send email to trolson
(ask a specific question, or schedule an appointment
to meet with me.)
- Use your lab TA and fellow students
During the first week or so of class, you will be required to
take a gateway test. Your score on this test will be 15%
of you "Test #1" score.
These tests are designed to test for mastery of the rules for
symbolic differentiation and basic integration taught in
Calculus I. They are meant to be printed and taken by hand,
without the aid of computer or calculator.
To generate a test, you'll need to do the following:
- Download the Mathematica notebook to your account,
gatewayII.nb
(right-click on the link and "Save Link As...")
- Start Mathematica, and open the notebook.
- If there are suggestions or compatibility errors,
click on "apply all suggestions"
(then contact me if there are still problems)
- Run the first cell (click the cursor anywhere in the cell
and "Shift-Return")
- If there are "Spell" errors, delete them (or run the first
cell again to generate a new test without spell-check errors).
- To print out a test, highlight the cells to be printed
and then choose "Print Selection" from the "File" menu
in the upper left corner of the Mathematica window.
An in-class gateway test will be given in class sometime
during the first two weeks (see schedule).
This test will count at 15% of you Test #1 score.
You may retake it as many times as you wish.
