STUDENT LEARNING OUTCOMES (From Academic Course Guide Manual/Workforce Education Course Manual/NCTC Catalog
|
At the successful completion of this course the student will be able to:
|
|
1
|
Use the concepts of definite integrals to solve problems involving area, volume, work, and other physical applications.
|
|
2
|
Use substitution, integration by parts, trigonometric substitution, partial fractions, and tables of anti-derivatives to evaluate definite and indefinite integrals.
|
|
3
|
Define an improper integral.
|
|
4
|
Apply the concepts of limits, convergence, and divergence to evaluate some classes of improper integrals.
|
|
5
|
Determine convergence or divergence of sequences and series.
|
|
6
|
Use Taylor and MacLaurin series to represent functions.
|
|
7
|
Use Taylor or MacLaurin series to integrate functions not integrable by conventional methods.
|
|
8
|
Use the concept of polar coordinates to find areas, lengths of curves, and representations of conic sections.

Quizzes: (20% of Overall Average)
There will be quizzes administered in class on paper. Dates for each of those will be announced in advance and appropriate details will be given at that same time. Some quizzes you may be allowed to take home, work, scan in solutions and then submit them online via a dropbox.
Tests and the Final Exam: (80% of Overall Average)
There will be four tests and a comprehensive Final Exam. Each test is worth 16% of your overall average and the Final will also be worth 16%, for a grand total of 80%. You want to make sure you are super ready for each test. NO MAKE-UP TESTS. Tests will be administered in class and you will be allowed pen/pencil, scratch paper (supplied by the instructor) and an appropriate calculator (when authorized by the instructor).
Leaving and re-entering the classroom after a test has begun will not be allowed unless details to do so have been worked out with the instructor BEFORE the test. This means there are no bathroom breaks, so make sure you plan ahead for test.

Due dates announced in class
|
Regular and punctual attendance is expected of all students in all classes for which they have registered. All absences are considered to be unauthorized unless the student is absent due to illness or emergencies. It is the student’s responsibility to provide documentation as to the emergency for approval by the faculty member. Approved college-sponsored activities are also excused absences. The instructor is responsible for judging the validity of any reason given for an absence. Valid reasons for absence, however, do not relieve the student of the responsibility for making up required work. Students will not be allowed to make up an examination missed due to absence unless the absence is documented and excused by the instructor. Student will be dropped from a class by the Registrar upon recommendation of the instructor who feels the student has been justifiably absent or tardy a sufficient number of times to preclude meeting the course’s objectives. Persistent, unjustified absences from classes or laboratories will be considered sufficient cause for College officials to drop a student from the rolls of the College. From Board Policy FC (LOCAL)
