Calculus, sixth edition, by Deborah Hughes-Hallett; published by John Wiley & Sons, Inc. We will cover parts of Chapters 12-16 of the text.

• You must buy a copy of the book that has the WileyPLUS Online Homework code. Otherwise you will have to buy the code separately! (If you were in Math 10B last quarter, then you can use the same WileyPlus code as last quarter.)
• If you want ELECTRONIC ACCESS ONLY, you can buy the WileyPLUS code separately. Then you do not need to buy a physical copy of the book. (This is the cheapest option.)
• The publisher also has a Wiley companion site for the textbook.
• Important: Register for WileyPlus using your UCSD email address and Student ID. Failure to do so may result in loss of your homework grade!
• Click here to access the Wiley Plus webpage for the course.

The grade is computed as the best of the following weighed averages:

• Homework 20%, Midterm I 20%, Midterm II 20%, Final Exam 40%.
• Homework 20%, Best midterm 20%, Final Exam 60%.

Reading the sections of the textbook corresponding to the assigned homework exercises is considered part of the homework assignment. You are responsible for material in the assigned reading whether or not it is discussed in the lecture. It will be expected that you read the assigned material in advance of each lecture.

Graphing calculators and computer programs (or online computing websites such as Wolfram|Alpha) can be very helpful when working through your homework. However, a calculator/computer should be used as an aid in learning concepts, not just as a means of computation. You should not hesitate use these devices when working on math problems at home. However, always keep in mind that:

• The use of electronic devices will not be permitted during exams. You will not be asked to solve problems on the exams that require any electronic computing devices.

Homework is a very important part of the course and in order to fully master the topics it is essential that you work carefully on every assignment and try your best to complete every problem. We will have two different kinds of homework assignments in this class: online homework (which will be graded) and "paper-and-pen" homework (which will not be graded).

• The "paper-and-pen" homework assignments will be announced on the course homework page . These assignments will not be turned in and will not be graded; however, if you seek help from the instructor or TAs, they will usually do these problems, not the online homework problems.
• Online homework will be done through WileyPlus, a service hosted by the the publisher of our textbook.
• In order to use WileyPLUS, you must have a WileyPLUS Online Homework code.
• No homework assignment scores will be dropped at the end of the quarter.

• There will be no makeup exams for any reason. We do not allow alternate times for taking exams. (If you have a documented disability or must miss the exam for a university sponsored activity, then arrangements can be made using the standard procedures.)
• One 8.5 x 11 page of notes is allowed (front only, no photocopies).
• No calculators or electronic computing devices will be allowed during the examinations.

The final examination will be held on Thursday, December 14, 11:30-2:30PM in Mandeville Auditorium. There is no make up final examination for any reason. It is your responsability to ensure that you do not have a schedule conflict during the final examination; you should not enroll in this class if you cannot sit for the final examination at its scheduled time. For the final, you are allowed one page of notes, back and front (no photocopies). Again, no calculators or other electronic computing devices are allowed.

It is your responsibility to check your homework and exam scores on Gradescope and contact your TA before the end of the 10th week of the quarter to resolve recording errors. Questions regarding missing or incorrectly recorded exam scores will not be considered after the last day of instruction.

Academic dishonesty is considered a serious offense at UCSD. Students caught cheating will face an administrative sanction which may include suspension or expulsion from the university. It is in your best interest to maintain your academic integrity. (Click here for more information.)
