Course Website: /math120
Course grades and general course announcements will be posted on the course website. The website also contains links to WeBWorK and further course resources.

Textbook: Calculus, James Stewart, 7^th international metric ed., 2012 (available at the bookstore)

Exams and Grading: Course grades are determined by (online) homework, short exams (organized by the teaching assistants), two (non-cumulative) midterm exams, and a cumulative final exam.

• Homework: 5 % (WeBWork)
• Short Exams: 3x 7 % = 21 %
• Midterm Exams: 2x 22 % = 44 %
• Final Exam: 30 %
• Bonus: 6 % (5 % from section and 1 % from recitation)

Homework: There will be 6 homeworks assigned and graded using the WeBWork system.

Short Exams: Short exams will be give on Wednesday evenings (dates to be announced). Problems in the short exams will be chosen from the previous webwork assignments.

Bonus: Up to 6 bonus points will be added to the final course score of students after combining all other grades. One of these bonus points will come from recitation and the other five from section. The method of determining bonus points will be decided by individual instructors and announced in class.

NA Grade Policy: Students who miss (without excuse) or receive a grade of 0 on more than 2 of the course exams (midterms and short exams combined) automatically receive a grade of NA for the course.

Make-up Midterm Policy: In order to be eligible to enter the make-up examination for a missed (midterm or final) examination, a student should have a documented or verifiable, and officially acceptable excuse. It is not possible to make up multiple missed exams. The make-up examination for all exams will be after the final exam, and will include all topics.

Missed Short Exam Policy: At most one short exam may be missed with a valid, acceptable excuse. This short exam's grade will be replaced by the average grade of the other short exams.

Cheating Policy: Cheating on any midterm or short exam will result in an immediate score of 0 on that exam. Furthermore, the student will be forced to take the make-up final at the end of exams period in lieu of the regularly scheduled final exam. Cheating on the final exam will result in an immediate grade of FF in the course.

Math Help Room: Office hours will be held in the mathematics help room (T-103). Students are encouraged to visit the help room both at the office hours of their own instructors, and others. The room can also be used for studying and for working in groups. Students are also encouraged to seek out instructors in their offices.

Suggested Problems: For each lecture, the assistants will announce additional suggested problems from the textbook. These problems will not be graded. The list of problems is available on the course website.
