MAT 132
Calculus II
S.U.N.Y. - Fall 1999



    • TEXT:
      James Stewart, Calculus, Concepts and Contexts: Single Variable, Brooks-Cole Publishing, 1997/98.

    • COURSE DESCRIPTION:
      This course is a continuation of MAT 131 and covers most of the second half ot the text, from the middle of Chapter 5 on. The main topics are integration and some of its simple but important applications, an introduction to differential equations, and concluding with infinite and power series.
      You are expected to be familiar with the material of MAT 131, namely derivatives, the basic definition and properties of definite and indefinite integrals, together with the fundamental theorem of calculus. Its important that you review this material so that you have as firm a grasp of it as possible. The first quiz, see below, will be a brief test on this.

    • HOMEWORK/QUIZZES:
      There will be a quiz approximately each week in your recitation section, for a total of 10-12 quizzes. To start, there will be a first quiz on Wednesday, Sept. 8, on § 5.1-§ 5.5 of the text, i.e. covering MAT 131 material.
      Below, you will find a list of homework problems. We suggest you do all of them, or as many as possible, and at least the bold face problems. However, you will not be handing in homework for grading. Subject to the discretion of your T.A. quiz problems will be modelled on the collection of problems in this list. It is also very likely that some of the exam problems will be very similar to problems from this list.

    • MAKEUPS: The university policy is that makeup exams are given only for work missed due to documented medical reasons and for exceptional "unforseeable" circumstances beyond the student's control. This does not include schedule conflicts. Makeup examinations must be arranged with your lecturer.

    • CALCULATORS:
      You are strongly encouraged to have a graphing calculator. We recommend any of: Texas Instruments TI-82 and TI-85, for example. Sharp EL-9300, EL-9600, (being discontinued) are also adequate. Calculators should be available at the Campus Bookstore, or at Basix. Some programs for the calculators are available at this web site, and from the Mathematics Undergraduate Office (Math Tower, room P-143). The calculators may be used for assistance on the homework problems, and on all quizzes. However, calculators will not generally be allowed on any of the Exams. Thus, while we strongly recommend you have and use a calculator, it is not actually required.

    • MATH LEARNING CENTER / CALCULUS RESOURCE ROOM:
      Located in the Physics Building, rooms A-125 and A-127. You can find very useful help and assistance with Calculus at either of these sites, staffed with graduate students and faculty every day, and some evenings. See the schedule posted on the door for the exact times or their web site.

    • GRADES:
      Midterm I 20 %
      Midterm II 20 %
      Final 35 %
      Recitation 25 %
      TOTAL 100 %
