  • Course Outline with OLD (i.e wrong) midterm dates

    • IMPORTANT-- NEW MIDTERM DATES
    THE TUE-THUR SECTION WILL WRITE IN CLASS ON MARCH 14.
    THE WED-FRI SECTION WILL WRITE IN CLASS ON MARCH 15.


    THE MIDTERM WILL BE CLOSED BOOK -- NO CRIB SHEET ALLOWED.
    YOU MUST WRITE THE MIDTERM IN THE SECTION YOU ARE REGISTERED IN. OTHERWISE, YOUR GRADE WILL NOT BE RECORDED.


    THE MIDTERMS WILL BE DIFFERENT BUT OF THE SAME DIFFICULTY. THEY WILL COVER ALL MATERIAL UP TO AND INCLUDING STOKES'S THEOREM.
    THERE WILL NOT BE LONG CALCULATIONS AND IN MOST CASES, YOU CAN LEAVE YOUR FINAL ANSWER IN A SUITABLE INTEGRAL FORM --- READ THE QUESTIONS VERY CAREFULLY (ESPECIALLY PHRASES AND WORDS HIGHLIGHTED IN BOLD).

    HERE IS THE TEMPLATE FOR BOTH MIDTERMS:
    SIX QUESTIONS EACH OUT OF 10:
    ONE WHICH IS TRUE FALSE
    ONE ON LINE INTEGRALS
    ONE ON SURFACE INTEGRALS
    ONE ON THE DIVERGENCE AND CURL OF VECTOR FIELDS
    TWO QUESTIONS DEVOTED TO GREEN'S THEOREM AND/OR THE DIVERGENCE THEOREM AND/OR STOKES'S THEOREM.

    HERE ARE THE TWO MIDTERMS: WE WILL COVER THEM OM MARCH 19, 20 (RESPECTIVELY)
  • MIDTERM MARCH 14

  • MIDTERM MARCH 15



    • PREPARATION FOR FINAL EXAM: A REVIEW SESSION FOR BOTH SECTIONS WILL BE GIVEN ON APRIL 16 IN LEA 132 FROM 15:35 to 17:25. NOTE: THIS IS A REVIEW SECTION WHERE I WILL GO OVER SOME PROBLEMS -- NO NEW MATERIAL WILL BE COVERED.

  • Web Work

    • There seems to be a problem in Question 3 of Webwork 3. Some people only see 2 vectors and even for those who see three vectors, there may be an issue with the direction of the inequalities. Some people are having issues with the wrong sign in the answer for Question 6. This problem has been fixed as of Saturday Feb. 2 at 4 PM. Sorry for the confusion -- Webwork is not perfect!
