HW Assignment for Math 124

Assignment Information

This page will give a complete listing of the reading and homework assignments that you are required to do. There is also a listing of the Exam schedule for the semester. The homework will be done with WeBWorK (alternate entrance is http://webwork.sdsu.edu/html/current_courses.html). This is an electronic homework system that is graded automatically on the due date. This system has been extremely successful over many years with only a couple of glitches. The grades of students taking the course were highly correlated with the scores on the WeBWork homework assignments, so it is very important that you take this homework seriously (worth 17% of the lecture grade). If you find an error in one of the problems, then please email Joseph Mahaffy. On each problem of each assignment, you are allowed 10 tries to get the correct answer. Information on logging into WeBWorK is given by this hyperlink.

Week 15: Last week of the semester. A review sheet (with solutions) is available to help you prepare for the lecture part of the exam.There is a practice lab (with solutions) for the Lab Exam on Friday, Dec. 5. Lecture material continues definite integrals with the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus and may begin some material on the qualitative behavior of differential equations. PDF lectures notes for Definite Integrals (4-Panel) and Qualitative Analysis for Differential Equations (4-Panel) are available.The problems on definite integrals in WeBWork called set ABioc2definte_int are due by Wed. Dec. 3 at 4 AM. There are related homework problems in the text for the sections on Definite Integrals. The solutions are available for Definite Integrals (with some complete solutions).

Graded I-Clicker questions on Tuesday are on definite integrals and possibly some qualitative differential equations.

The Computer Lab has a computer portion using WeBWorK and a written part, which is due in GMCS 425 on every Thursday by 9 PM (in the labeled box). The WeBWorK portion of the Lab is due by Friday at 4 AM. Most computer labs consist of 3 primary questions and a question associated with the Help page. More help for the lab can be found in a Lab Manual. You and your partner will turn in a single Lab Report with 2 cover pages (or one Cover Page for each member of the group if different from 2).

You can purchase a license for Maple, which will expire May 31, 2015. I believe you go to the Maple website:
https://webstore.maplesoft.com/
Maple 18 downloadable Student Edition costs $65:
with the Promo code: BC-SDSU1415-LK7

Lab Help: In lab we showed what is expected for graphs (do and don'ts). We have a document on the step-by-step methods to produce a good graph in Excel 2010. Also, there is additional documentation on what is expected through the link to the Good Graph Document. There is a new Maple adoption program with information to be inserted here soon for students wanting to use Maple at home.

Tutoring

The Department of Math has free tutoring, and information can be found at the Math Office. Math/Stats Tutoring is located in LL439, and details of the schedules can be found at Math Tutoring. They also have a list of Private Tutors .

Grading and Exam Information

This section will give you information about exams throughout the semester. Current Grades are coded and found through this hyperlink. (Find codes through Blackboard, then compare to Code list.) The final grading for this course is based on 70% from the lecture material and 30% from the lab. The lecture grade is 10% from lecture participation (i-Clicker), 17% from the WeBWorK homework assignments, and 73% from the three Exams, and a Final. The lab grade is from approximately 13 computer labs and the 3 Lab Quizzess, which each count twice a normal lab. (You will be able to drop one lab score.) The labs are due by Thursday at 9 PM, after which no credit is given.

Your Final for the semester occursThur, Dec. 11, 10:30-12:30.  Final questions will be similar to ones in the previous Exams, WeBWorK assignments (including the Extra one), and the review sheets for all the exams. Material covers the entire semester with heavier emphasis on the Calculus portions (Exam 2 and Exam 3). Note that you will only be able to use a Scientific Calculator. Examples of acceptable calculators are Ativa AT-30, Casio Scientific Calculator, HP 33S, Sharp EL501, and TI-30X. In addition, you can have three 3x5 notecards (both sides). Cell phones must be turned off and not be visible!

The Solutions to Exams are available through the links below:

  1. Exam 1: Thur, Sept. 25 - Lab Quiz 1: Fri, Sept. 26

  2. Exam 2: Tues, Oct. 28 - Lab Quiz 2: Fri, Oct. 24

  3. Exam 3: Thur, Dec 4 - Lab Quiz 3: Fri, Dec 5

  4. Final: Thur, Dec 11, 10:30-12:30

Anyone receiving a score less than 50% on the Final will not obtain a grade higher than a C-. This policy may be adjusted slightly depending on the class performance on the Final. However, the final is taken very seriously in the assigning of the final grade.

Course Drop Deadlines: The University has a very strict on the drop deadline. You must drop this course by Sept. 8.

Old Assignments

Week 1: Add Codes will be distributed after class or in the Lab based on the space available and number of students crashing the course. You should start the WebWork assignments immediately and let me know if I made any mistakes entering your name or RedID number for the login and password. See the WeBWorK login instructions for details. We will give very limited help on problems on the Algebra Self-Test, and we will not give any assistance during the semester for questions asked within 24 hours of the problems being due.

You need to familiarize yourself with this website so that you will know where to get the appropriate information for doing well in this course. There is a page that should help you navigate this website if you are not comfortable with the web. Students are entitled to a free account on rohan for receiving email and accessing many of the University computer facilities. (I highly recommend that you obtain this account as rohan has certain abilities that you may want for this course and future courses, which are unavailable by private providers.) More information on this is provided at the SDSU computer facilities website.

Preparation: The experience of the Biology and Mathematics Departments with this course in the past has shown that many of you, who are taking this course, are not properly prepared. Many of you have had a large time gap between your last math course and this one or you simply had poor preparation (often severe disinterest) in basic algebra. Math 121 had on average 25-40% of the students who enrolled either dropped the course or failed it (usually from inadequate preparation or unwillingness to work). To help you understand the expectations of students entering this course, there is a Algebra Review using WebWorK. It is your responsibility to work through this Algebra worksheet and try to honestly access your abilities. (When you discuss problems later in the course, we are likely to ask you how you did on this examination.) If you score over 70%, then you are probably prepared for this course. If you score 50-70% on this algebra review, then you may be able to succeed with very hard work. If you score below 50%, then you are not prepared for this course and should enroll in Math 105 or a Community College course to refresh your Algebra skills. This Algebra Review will count toward your homework grade, so it is not an optional assignment. This problem set in WebWork is given by Set ABiocAlg and consists of 48 problems that will be due byFri. Sept. 5at 4 AM. (There is also a problem for changing your password and adding email to this account.) Information on logging into WeBWorK is given by this hyperlink.
