syllabus.

- Etc
Gateway Exam: Students will be required to take
a gateway exam, which tests basic calculus skills. The Gateway counts 60 points
toward your semester total; each of the six problems is worth 12 points, up to 60 points.
(Thus you only need to get 5 right to get full credit.) There are also
6 practice Mastery exams
to help you prepare for the Gateway exam. You have 5 attempts to pass each one;
each is worth 2 points of extra credit (out of the semester total of 700).
You can take them from any web browser at your convenience.
Quizzes: Most Thursdays there will be a short quiz,
on recently covered material, usually
including a problem taken from the syllabus.
The bottom two quiz scores will be dropped.
Group Projects: Students in each section will be divided
into groups, each group comprising 3 to 5 students. Each group will
turn in a group project (to be assigned later) for a group grade.
Here is a copy of this semester's project.
Tests: There will be three in-class tests.
The expected dates of each test are listed on the
syllabus.
[Sometimes an exam just doesn't go well; who knows why! To help take this into
account, your lowest hour exam will be replaced by the final
exam percentage IF that improves your average (so as not to punish someone
whose final does not go well).]
Final Exam: Wednesday,
May 3, 2006, 6:00pm - 8:00pm;
room to be announced the last week of class.
Everyone must take the final exam;
do not make plans to leave town before the
final. You are expected to
arrange your personal and work schedules to
allow you to take the final
exam at the scheduled time. Students with
conflicting exams may be allowed
to take an alternate final, but note that
the alternate is always
given after the regularly scheduled final.
No student will be
allowed to take the final exam early.
Grade Scales, Averages and Semester Grades
There are three hour exams.
In addition, there are periodic quizzes,
a group project, the Gateway Exam and the Final Exam. Your Semester Grade
is determined by averaging your grades on these items with the following
weights:
3 hour exams worth 100 points each
recitation quiz average worth 100 points
group project worth 40 points
Gateway Exam worth 60 points
Final Exam worth 200 points
Total 700 points
