If you buy a paper textbook, an access code may or may not come with it. See the information on homework below. Piazza: Please use Piazza instead of email to ask questions about homework problems and logistics. Other students and the instructors can answer them there for the benefit of all students. See details below. Calculator: You will need a basic scientific calculator or calculator app. A graphing calculator (e.g. TI-84 or TI-89) or a graphing calculator app is useful for visualizing functions and checking answers. Calculators will not be allowed on the final exam, tests, or quizzes unless otherwise specified. Other: Supplementary materials including course notes will be posted on Sakai > Lessons tab and Sakai > Resources. Videos are on the instructor s YouTube channel and links to videos are posted on Sakai. Prerequisites: In order to be eligible to register for this course, AT LEAST ONE of the following must be true: * You earned at least a 3 on the AB-AP exam. * You earned at least a 3 on the AB subscore on the BC-AP exam. * You earned a grade of C or higher in Math 231 taken at UNC-CH or have 231 transfer credit. * You have 231 placement credit via the department placement exam Note: Math 152 is not an acceptable prerequisite for Math 232. Course Description: Math 232 covers parts of Chapters 6 through 12. Topics include: Applications of integration Techniques of integration Sequences and series Power series Parametric and polar equations Course Objectives: Use integration to find volumes of revolution, arc length, work, and other applications Calculate integrals using techniques including integration by parts and partial fractions Prove convergence or divergence of sequences and series Use power series to represent functions Class Structure: Students are expected to prepare for each lecture class by reading the text and / or watching assigned videos, and then completing a short pre-class assignment on MyMathLab. The pre-class assignments are due by the start of class. Classes on Monday, Wednesday, Friday are lectures. The instructor will post a skeleton version of the notes on Sakai before each class and a filled in copy of the notes after class. During the Thursday recitations led by the TAs, students will solve problems in groups on topics related to the current lectures and homework. 1
Homework: Please refer to the schedule on MyMathLab for homework due dates. Please refer to the instructions below to set up your MyMathLab account. Your lowest homework score will be dropped if at least 80% of students complete the mid-semester course evaluation. Your second lowest homework score will be dropped if at least 80% of students complete the course evaluation at the end of the term. Pre-class assignments: There will be pre-class MyMathLab assignments for most classes, due by the start of class. Your scores on the pre-class assignments will be included in your homework grade. The lowest two scores on pre-class assignments will be dropped. Clicker questions: MyMathLab will also be used for in-class clicker questions using Learning Catalytics. Clicker questions will be graded for participation only. The lowest 4 scores will be dropped. Regular homeworks will be weighted 10 points, pre-class assignments will be weighted 2 points, and clicker questions will be weighted 2 points towards the total MyMathLab grade.

Piazza: Instead of emailing the instructor or the TAs directly with questions about homework problems or logistics, please post your questions on Piazza. Other students and the instructor and TAs can answer them there for the benefit of all students. If you were not already automatically added to Piazza, you can register yourself here: piazza.com/unc/fall2018/math232. Recitation Problems: Students will be assigned to groups to work on problems in recitation. Students will be graded for participation, and one solution per group will be graded for the quality of the solution, based on its accuracy, completeness, and clear exposition. Each student s grade will be the sum of their individual participation score and their group s quality score. Recitation problem scores and quiz scores will be pooled together into one grading category and the lowest two scores in this category will be dropped. Tests and Quizzes: There will be a quiz given some weeks. Usually, the quiz will be given during recitation. Sometimes, the quiz will be online through MyMathLab. Quiz topics and format will be announced in advance during the lecture or posted on Sakai. Your quiz scores and recitation problem scores will be pooled together into one grading category, and the lowest two scores in this category will be dropped. There will be three tests during the semester. Their tentative dates are as follows: Test 1: 9/21/2018 Test 2: 10/26/2018 Test 3: 11/28/2018 2
No make-up tests or quizzes will be given. The grade on the final will be used to replace either a missing test grade or the lowest test grade if the final exam score is higher. The comprehensive final exam will be on Friday, Dec 7 from 8:00 11:00 am. The final exam is given in compliance with UNC s final exam regulations and calendar, and will not be given prior to this exam date. In order to take the make-up exam after this date, you must have an official examination excuse, signed by a dean or advisor (in Steele Building). You must bring this excuse, along with a picture ID, to the make-up exam. Grading: All grades will be assigned according to a 10-point scale. That is, 93 100 is A, 90 92 is A-, 87 89 is B+, 83 87 is B, 80 82 is B-, etc. Your course grade will be determined as follows: MyMathLab: Quizzes and Recitation Problems: Tests: Final Exam: Total : 14 pts. 8 pts. 40 pts. 38 pts. 100 points Late work: No late work will be accepted for tests, quizzes, or recitation problems Late work on MyMathLab is subject to a 15% penalty per day on unanswered questions. Honor Code: It is expected that each student in this class will conduct him or herself within the guidelines of the UNC Honor System, described at http://studentconduct.unc.edu/students. In this class, all tests and exams must be done individually and are closed book and closed notes. It is an instance of cheating to give or receive help on a test or exam, except from the instructor. Quizzes must also be done individually. In class quizzes are closed book and closed notes, and online quizzes taken outside of class are open book and open notes unless otherwise specified. On homework assignments and pre-class assignments, students are encouraged to work together in pairs or small groups, provided that all participants are contributing and the collaboration benefits the learning of all involved. Simply copying or trading answers is an instance of cheating. On in-class problem solving assignments and clicker questions, students are encouraged to work together. If you are not sure if collaboration is permitted, please ask! In addition to avoiding actual academic dishonesty, please avoid appearances of academic dishonesty. In particular, please silence and put away cell phones before any exams are handed out and please avoid the appearance of looking at other students papers. In order to maintain a proper testing atmosphere, the instructor may ask students to switch seats before or during an exam. Students who observe a violation of the honor code should report it to the instructor. The instructor will report any suspected honor code violations to the Student Attorney General.
