Syllabus:
- The definite integral.
- Techniques of integration.
- Applications.
- Introduction to sequences and series.
The syllabus is covered in chapter 5, 6, 7, 8, 10 and 11 of the text.
Note: Students register for one lecture session and one tutorial session.
Assessment: Assessment for the course is based on the following:
- Exam: The final examination will be of 3 hours duration. There is
no "additional work" option and the grade of incomplete will not be given. A supplemental exam will be available.
- Assignments: There will be a number of assignments during the semester delivered using the Webwork system. It is the student's responsibility to check the Webwork site from time to time to check for assignments to be completed. The instructor reserves the right to set written assignments.
- Quizzes: There will be three quizzes during the semester given in the tutorial sessions. The quizzes must be taken in the tutorial section in which the student is enrolled. Students who miss a quiz (for example because they are sick) must inform the course coordinator by e-mail at drury@math.mcgill.ca the same day as the quiz at the latest if they expect an accommodation.For students who are unable to attend a quiz click here. One of the quizzes may be a multiple choice test.
The assessment formula is 0.1 a + 0.2 q + 0.7 f where
a , q and f are percentage marks for the assignments, quizzes and
final examination respectively. Note that there is no 100% final exam option
in this course. If the student misses assignments or quizzes he/she cannot get 100% on the course.
Exam Viewing: The examiner reserves the right to set a specific time or times for the purpose of exam viewing. If such times are set, they will be announced on the course webpage.
Note: In accord with McGill University's Charter of Students' Rights, students in this course have the right to submit in English or in French any written work that is to be graded.
Note: In the event of extraordinary circumstances beyond the University's control, the content and/or evaluation scheme in this course is subject to change.
Academic Integrity: McGill University values academic integrity. Therefore, all students must understand the meaning and consequences of cheating, plagiarism and other academic offences under the Code of Student Conduct and Disciplinary Procedures (see http://www.mcgill.ca/students/srr/honest/ for more information).
Assignment Plagiarism: Assignments must be done individually. You may not copy another person's work. Furthermore, you must not give a copy of your work to another student. If you do plagiarize your assignments, in all probability you will not get caught. However, do not lose sight of the fact that you need to do the assignments yourself in order to develop the skills you will need for the final exam. In reality, the only person you would be cheating would be yourself.
