Description and goals:

This is the last part of the three-semester sequence 141-142-143 intended to introduce techniques of integration and basic theory of infinite sequences and series. The course is not proof-oriented but students are expected to gain a good understanding of the concepts of calculus and to be able to apply them in concrete problems.

General Information and Ground Rules:

• Virtual class lecture meetings are Tuesdays and Thursdays, 1:40 - 2:55 PM on Google Meet.

• Homework is an absolutely essential part of this course. You cannot master the course material without solving many problems consistently throughout the semester. This course uses WebAssign, an online homework and test management system.

• The exams schedules are as follows:
  
  

  Midterm 1	Midterm 2	Final
  Thursday October 7	Thursday November 11	Thursday December 16, 1:45-3:45pm

• Course grade is based on the following scheme:
  
  

  Assignments	Two Midterms	Final Exam
  30%	20% each	30%

• The prerequisite for this course is MATH 142, and it is not open to students who have passed or are taking MATH 151. In the absence of this prerequisite, you should not be enrolled in this class. Please contact the Math Department office and seek advice.

• If a midterm exam is missed because of a documented illness or valid emergency, the course grade will be determined on the basis of the other work done during the semester. Exams missed for other reasons will count as failures. In any case, there will be no make up exams.

• At the end of the semester, everyone who has not withdrawn from the class will receive a grade. Incompletes will not be given to avoid F's.
