MATH 151Engineering Math IFall 2011Sections 531-536TR 8-9:15 HELD 200Instructor: Amy AustinOffice: 630B BlockerE-mail Address: [email protected] Page: http://www.math.tamu.edu/∼amy.austin/(check regularly for class announcements, important information, class notes and daily schedule)Office Hours: TBATeaching Assistant:• For sections 531-533: Daniel Godber ([email protected])• For sections 534-536: Stephen Rowe ([email protected] .edu)Texts: All Math 151 classes use the same book: Stewart’s Calculus: Early Vectors. You have already purchasedan electronic book (eBook) through course fees. Buying a paper copy is optional. Buying the solutions manual isoptional, but encouraged in order to view detailed solutions of the odd numbered suggested homework problems.The computer laboratory will use Matlab; An Introduction with Applications, 4th edition by Wiley.Learning Objectives Th is course is to provide students with quantitative and problem-solving skills of 2-dimensional vectors and differential calculus. At the conclusion of this course, students should be able to:• Know and use techniques of limits and differentiation.• Apply techniques of differentiation to a variety of applications, including engineering ap plications.• Under stand and apply vector operations in 2-dimensions, including dot product.• Under stand the relationship between derivatives and integrals via the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus.• Use Computer Algebra Systems s uch as Matlab to solve applied problems.Common Exams: Engineering Calculus I an d II use Common Exams in order to establish consistency amongsections. These common exams are administered in the evening (schedule attached). If you have a class conflictwith these exams, you must provide documentation and arrangements will be made for you. You and your recitationpartner must pu rchase a packet of quizzstrips (#815 or #815E) and turn them in to me no later than the thirdweek of class for use during the exams. Put a sticky note with your name and your partner’s name/section numberon the packet. Failure to do so will result in a penalty of 2 points on your common exam score. Calculators arenot permitted on the common exams.In-Class Assignments: At various times throughout the semester, you will be given in-class assignments d uringlecture which must be completed before leaving class. In order to complete these in-class assignments you willneed to have loose-leaf notebook paper and something to write with; always come to class with these materials.Many times the in-class assignments will be due within the first 5 minutes of class, so it is imperative that youarrive to class prepared and on time each day. Other times, the in-class assignments may be given at the end ofclass, so it is also imperative that you do not leave class early. None of the grades on these assignments may bedropped unless you are missing a grade due to a verified Univers ity excused ab sence.Recitation: Every Wednesday, students will attend recitation. During this time, weekly activities will be assigned.Students will work in pairs during recitation, and they will complete the activity, with the supervision/help ofthe TA. Notes are allowed during each activity, but calculators are not perm itted. At the end of the 50 minutes,students will turn this in for a weekly graded assignment.Matlab: Every Monday, students will attend Matlab. During the first 15-20 minutes of Matlab, students willhave a quiz on the previous activity. Notes and calculators are not permitted on the quizzes. This will encouragestudents to actively participate on the activity and learn the material before the following Matlab. After the quiz,students can work on the assigned Matlab or ask the TA questions over homework. Visit the link below for Matlabassignments.http://www.math.tamu.edu/courses/math151/matlabsched.htmlWebAssign: Online homework (WebAssign) is required in all math 151 classes. For each homework, a ‘practice’will be available. Students are highly encouraged to work the (non graded) practice homework before working theassociated ‘graded homework’. Do not wait until last minute to complete the online homework! All informationon WebAssign can be found here:http://www.math.tamu/eHomeworkAcademic I ntegrity Statement: “An Aggie does not lie, cheat, or steal or tolerate those who do”. I furtherrefer the student to the Honor Council Rules and Procedures on the web athttp://www.tamu.edu/aggiehonorStudents with Disabilities: The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) is a federal anti-discrimination statutethat provides comprehensive civil rights protection for per sons with disabilities.
