\hd{Textbook}  The textbook for this course will be Calculus, 8th edition,
by D. Varberg, E. Purcell, and Steven E. Rigdon, Prentice-Hall (1999),
ISBN 0-13-081137-8.  

\hd{Course content} There are two main themes in Calculus II. The
first is to study techniques for evaluating integrals. As part of
this, we will learn about the logarithm function and the inverse
trigonometric functions.  The second is the use of series to define
functions, such as sine, cosine, and the exponential function.  While
students may feel that they are familiar with the trigonometric,
exponential functions and their inverses, there is still much to
learn. For example, how do we 
accurately compute the sine or the logarithm?  Some may argue that
this is of no interest, since our calculators can do this without
effort.  However, I think it is interesting to be able to answer the
question: How does it work? In addition, the techniques that we use to
construct these functions are used to construct new functions needed to
solve other problems in science and engineering.

\hd{Grading} There will be three hour exams and a final, each will be
worth 100 points. You will be given three longer assignments which
will be worth a total of 50 points. A homework grade of 100 points
will be based on weekly homework, possibly including presentation of
problems in recitation.  I expect that you will need 90\% for an
A, 80\% for a B, 70\% for a C and 60\% for a D. Thus, you will need to
earn at least 495 points out of the total of 550 points to obtain an
A, 440 for a B, 385 for a C and 330 for D.

\hd{Cheating} Copying or cheating on exams and is not allowed.  The
minimum penalty for cheating is a failing grade in this course.  I
expect that students will collaborate on the longer
assignments. However, you should not take credit for an assignment
unless you make a substantial contribution to the solution.  You are
encouraged to work together on homework, but you should not turn in as
your work a solution which you copied from another student.  Students
who do not make the effort to understand the homework will probably
have difficulty on exams.

\hd{Homework}  A list of suggested problems is given on the
syllabus. Specific assignments will be made from each section as we
cover the section. These assignments will be collected and partially
graded by the teaching assistants. Students should clearly present
their solutions to the assigned problems. 

 Students who desire practice on a topic should use
the suggested problems as a guide to select additional problems to work.
If you have difficulty with a problem, please
see the lecturer or your teaching assistant  to find out how to work
the problem.


\hd{Exams} There will be three   exams  on Tuesday evenings from 7:30 to
9:30. The dates for these exams are on the calendar.  Please make sure
you have these dates free.  The room for these exams will  be
different from your lecture and recitation room. The room will be
announced in class.  The final will be given in the lecture room. 

\hd{Longer assignments} We hope to complete three longer assignments.  You
will work in groups on these projects and your group will turn in one
written report. Groups must have 1 to 3 members. All members of a
group will receive the same grade.  We will devote most of one
recitation to each project. You will need to arrange for additional
time out of class to complete each project.

\hd{MA194} Calculus II is a four credit course, but meets for more
than four hours per week. In order to receive credit for the extra
class time, you are strongly encouraged to enroll in MA194.  You
should enroll in the same section number for both MA194 and MA114.

MA194 will be graded on a pass/fail basis.  If you have zero, one or
two unexcused absences you will pass MA194 if you have three or more
unexcused absences, you will fail MA194. \bf  Please tell your TA
about any excused absences as soon as possible\rm. Excused absences due
to university activities should be mentioned in advance. Absences due
to illness or emergency should be reported as soon as you return to
school.

\hd{Attendance}  Go to class. If you don't want to go to class, drop
the course now.   Attendance will be taken in  recitation
in order to determine your  MA194 grade. 

\hd{Missed assignments} No late work will be accepted for any reason.
If you miss an assignment for illness or other 
emergency, tell the lecturer, Brown, as soon as you return to
school. If you miss recitation for a scheduled activity, tell your TA
as soon as you know you will miss class so that you can be given an
excused absence.  Missed assignments will be
given a grade of 0 and we will compensate for excused absences when
we assign final grades.

Please try to take all exams at the regularly scheduled times. If you
must miss an exam talk to Brown to arrange a makeup.

\hd{Calculators} You are encouraged to have a graphing calculator to
use in class, on homework and during exams.  Your instructors will be
using TI-82's.  On exams, you may not use a machine which performs
symbolic manipulation. In particular, no TI-89's, TI-92's, no laptop
computers and no machines with a keyboard.


\hd{Web site and library}    There will be a primitive web-site for
this course at http://www.ms.uky.edu/$\sim$rbrown/ma114.  This site
will contain handouts and assignments.
There will also be a notebook on reserve in the 
Math Library in the basement of the Patterson Office Tower. This
notebook will contain solutions to exams, longer assignments and some
of the homework.

\hd{Problems} If you have any questions about this course,
contact your TA or instructor. If they cannot resolve a problem, you
may see the course coordinator for MA114, the departmental ombudsperson
or the university ombudperson.
