Prerequisites: MATH 1314 with a grade of C or better or equivalent. Three class hours per week. Credit: Three semester hours. Core Course: This is a Core Course in the 42-hour Core of Blinn College. As such, students will develop proficiency in the appropriate Intellectual Competencies, Exemplary Education Objectives, and Perspectives. The URL for Blinn College Core Curriculum website is www.blinn.edu/courecurriculum Course Objectives: The student should maintain at least a 70% average on all course work covering linear functions and graphs, matrices, inequalities and linear programming, simplex algorithm, mathematics of finance, probability, sets, counting techniques, permutations, combinations, statistics, central tendency, standard deviation, and applications in all areas. Materials:

• Course Packet (POAGE 1324) from the Copy Center • Textbook: Lial, Greenwell, & Ritchey. Finite Mathematics and Calculus with Applications. 9th Edition. Pearson,

Addison Wesley, 2012. • Access to MyLabsPlus online homework problems (blinn.mylabsplus.com). (online copy of book included)

Course Content: Nonlinear Functions, The Derivative, Calculating the Derivative, Graphs and the Derivative, Applications of the Derivative, Integration, Further Techniques and Applications of Integration, Multivariable Calculus Tentative Exam Schedule:

• Test 1: 9/24 & 9/26 • Test 2: 10/17 & 10/19 • Test 3: 11/9 & 11/12 • Test 4: 12/5 & 12/7

Grading Policy: 4 Exams = 16% each Quizzes = 8% Online Homework = 8% Final Exam = 20% Below are letter grades that correspond to the final numerical grade: A = 89.5-100; B = 79.5-89.4; C = 69.5-79.4; D = 59.5-69.4; F = 0-59.4 Suggested Homework: You will have "suggested" homework from your textbook every day (which will prepare you for your quizzes and tests, but will not be turned in for a grade). It is IMPERATIVE that you do suggested homework problems.

Quizzes: Quizzes will be given in class. It will cover the suggested homework material so stay caught up on suggested homework. Sometimes there might be take home quizzes or group quizzes, but most will be individual. Each quiz is worth 10 points and the lowest quiz grade will be dropped at the end of the semester. Quizzes will not always be announced ahead of time. Online Homework: more information coming soon Graphing Calculator: A TI-83/84 graphing calculator is REQUIRED for this course. Symbolic calculators such as the TI-89/92 will not be allowed. Calculator may not be allowed on some quizzes/tests. Make-up Policy: There will be no make-ups given without an official authorized excuse. Such excuses include a Doctor’s note, a signed message from a College official, or an obituary from a death in the family. A prescription is not an authorized excuse. The student must contact the instructor either prior to or within 24 hours of missing an exam. The instructor will note in writing if the excuse is authorized. The make-up exam must be taken within one week of the date of the exam. Accommodations for Students with Disabilities: Blinn College is dedicated to providing the least restrictive learning environment for all students. Support services for students with documented disabilities are provided on an individual basis, upon request. Requests for services should be made directly to the Office of Disability Services serving the campus of your choice. For the Bryan campus, the Office of Disability Services (Administration Building) can be reached at (979)209-7251. Additional information can be found at www.blinn.edu/disability. To this end, in order to receive accommodations on exams or assignments, students must alert me to the situation as soon as possible and also provide our Academic Advising and Counseling Center (AACC) with proper documentation of their needs. No accommodations will be granted until the student makes an appointment with me, during my office hours, to discuss appropriate accommodations.

Attendance Policy: The College District believes that class attendance is essential for student success; therefore, students are required to promptly and regularly attend all their classes. Each class meeting builds the foundation for subsequent class meetings. Without full participation and regular class attendance, students shall find themselves at a severe disadvantage for achieving success in college. Faculty will require students to regularly attend class and will keep record of attendance from the first day of class and/or the first day the student’s name appears on the roster through final examinations. If the student accumulates a total one week (3 days) of absences, he/she will be sent an e-mail by the College requiring the student to contact his/her instructor and schedule a conference immediately to discus his/her attendance issues. If the student accumulates a total of two weeks (6 days) worth of absence, he/she will be administratively withdrawn from class. The only excused absences as defined by the College are:

(1) Observance of religious holy days – Sec 51.911(b) Texas Education Code. An institution of higher education shall excuse a student attending classes and/or required activities, including examinations, for the observance of a religious holy day. A student whose absence is excused under this section may not be penalized for that absence and shall be allowed to take an examination or complete an assignment. The student should notify his/her instructor no later thatn the 15th day of the semester concerning the specific date(s) that the student will be absent for any religious holy day(s); and

(2) Representing Blinn College at an official institutional function – a student is asked by the institution to be an

official representative of the college at any function approved by the institution, the student is excused from any classes missed and must be allowed to complete all work without penalty for that absence(s) in a timely manner as directed by the faculty member.

Tardies: If a student is 0-15 minutes late to class that will count as one tardy. An accumulation of three tardies is equal to one absence. If a student is 15 or more minutes late, then that is counted as an absence. If a student leaves class for any reason during the lecture, then this will be counted as an absence.

Civility Statement: Members of the Blinn College community, which includes faculty, staff, and other students, are expected to act honestly and responsibly in all aspects of campus life. Blinn College holds all members accountable for their actions and words. Therefore, all members should commit themselves to behave in a manner that recognizes personal respect and demonstrates concern for personal dignity, rights, and freedoms of every member of the College community, including respect for College property and the physical and intellectual property of others. If a student is asked to leave the classroom because of uncivil behavior, the student may not return to that class until he or she arranges a conference with the instructor: it is the student’s responsibility to arrange for this conference. Classroom Policy: No food, drinks, or tobacco products are allowed in the classroom. Cell phones are beepers/pages must be disengaged while the student is in the classroom. Text messaging in class will result in the student being asked to leave for the remainder of the instructional period. This will count as an unexcused absence. Scholastic Dishonesty: The policy as stated in the 2009-2010 Student Handbook, Bryan Campus will be followed. Sources for Help:
