• Students should gain an appreciation for the importance of calculus in scientific, engineering, computer, and other applications.
• Students should gain experience in the use of technology to facilitate visualization and problem solving.

Course Outcomes

• Students have improved logical thinking and problem-solving skills.
• Students have a greater understanding of the importance of calculus in science and technology.
• Students are prepared for further study in mathematics as well as science, engineering, computing, and other areas.

Course Assessment: The assessment of objectives is achieved through homeworks, quizzes, and common examinations with common grading.

Policies

DMS Course Policies: All DMS students must familiarize themselves with, and adhere to, the Department of Mathematical Sciences Course Policies, in addition to official university-wide policies. DMS takes these policies very seriously and enforces them strictly.

Grading Policy: The final grade in this course will be determined as follows:

Homework	17%
Common Midterm Exam I	17%
Common Midterm Exam II	17%
Common Midterm Exam III	17%
Final Exam	32%

Your final letter grade will be based on the following tentative curve.

A	85 - 100	C	65 - 69
B+	80 - 84	D	60 - 64
B	75 - 79	F	0 - 59
C+	70 - 74

Attendance Policy: Attendance at all classes will be recorded and is mandatory. Please make sure you read and fully understand the Math Department’s Attendance Policy. This policy will be strictly enforced. Students are expected to attend class. Each class is a learning experience that cannot be replicated through simply “getting the notes.”

Homework Policy: Homework is a requirement for this class. Online homework will be completed with MyMathLab, which comes with a new copy of the textbook. Access to it can also be purchased directly from the website. In addition to the online homework, there will be several problem sets to hand in.

MATLAB: MATLAB is a mathematical software program that is used throughout the science and engineering curricula. Tutors are available to help students having difficulties in accordance with a posted schedule.

Exams: There will be three common midterm exams held during the semester and one comprehensive common final exam. Exams are held on the following days:

Common Midterm Exam I	September 26, 2018
Common Midterm Exam II	October 24, 2018
Common Midterm Exam III	November 28, 2018
Final Exam Period	December 15 - 21, 2018

The time of the midterm exams is 4:15-5:40 pm for daytime students and 5:45-7:10 pm for evening students. The final exam will test your knowledge of all the course material taught in the entire course. Make sure you read and fully understand the Math Department's Examination Policy. This policy will be strictly enforced.

Makeup Exam Policy: To properly report your absence from a midterm or final exam, please review and follow the required steps under the DMS Examination Policy found here:

• http://math.njit.edu/students/policies_exam.php

Diagnostic Assessment: Having a solid background in pre-calculus is a prerequisite for success in calculus. Accordingly, during the first week of the semester, every student will complete a diagnostic assessment of pre-calculus. Students whose outcomes indicate gaps in this material will be assigned additional activities in order to assist in filling these gaps. Students who do not complete the diagnostic assessment and all assigned follow-up activities will have two points deducted from their course average.

Mandatory Tutoring Policy: Based upon academic performance indicating a significant gap in understanding of the course material, students may receive a notice of being assigned to mandatory tutoring to assist in filling the gap. A student will have 2 points deducted from the course average for each instance in which the required tutoring is not completed by the stated deadline.

Cellular Phones: All cellular phones and other electronic devices must be switched off and put away during all class times.
