Required textbook
Brief
Calculus and its Applications, by Goldstein, Lay, Schneider
and Asmar (Publisher: Pearson/Prentice Hall), 11th edition.
Supplementary notes
Some of the material on curve sketching from the class on 6th October is
not covered in the textbook. For some supplementary notes, click here.
Homework exercises
Selected exercises from the textbook can
be found here. (Note that you can omit Section 6.6, as we will not
be covering this topic in class.)
For some exercises on curve sketching (similar to what was done in
class on 6th October), see page 5 of the
supplementary notes.
Old final exam papers
Some old final exam papers are available here for you to practice:
In-term test papers
To help practice for the final exam, the test question papers are
here: Test 1, Test 1
(make-up), Test 2, Test
3, Test 4.
Term marks
Click here for a list of test marks,
indexed by student ID. (Unfortunately, at the moment this excludes the
diagnostic test marks. As soon as WebCT starts behaving itself and will
actually let me export a file, I'll add those to this list.)
Note that if there is an error in the transcription of any of your
grades, you need to see me in my office hours, and bring the test paper
with the correct mark on it with you!
