This is a new course for Fall 2002. Here is the official course description from the catalog. "This sequence is an honors version of 110.108-109, and meets the general education requirement for Calculus I and II. It is a more theoretical treatment of one variable Calculus than in 110.108-109, and is based on our modern understanding of the real number system as explained by Cantor, Dedekind and Weierstrass. It's by invitation only to students who have excelled on the advanced placement test. Such students who want to know the 'why's' of Calculus as well as the 'how to's' will find this course very rewarding. " Any student eligible for and needing academic adjustments or accommodations due to a disability is requested to speak with the professor no later than September 25. |

The main text for the course is "Calculus" by Michael Spivak. In the course of the two semesters we will aim to cover most of the book. |

The course grade will be determined as follows: Homework: 25% Homework will be assigned Monday and due the following Monday. Homework will be collected at the beginning of class on Monday. Late homework will not be accepted. Missing homework counts as as 0. The purpose of the homework is to gain better understanding of the material. You are encouraged to discuss the homework problems with each other. You must, however, write up your own homework solutions. Copying another student's homework is a violation of academic integrity and will be dealt with accordingly. Midterms: 20% There will be two in class exams, one on Monday March 3, and one on Monday April 14. The first exam is scheduled so that the grades will be available before the final add/drop date. Final Exam: 35% The final exam will take place during the regularly scheduled time for a class meeting MTW 3-4. There will be no make-up exams. For excused absences, the grade for a missed exam will be a weighted average of subsequent exam grades. Unexcused absences count as a 0. Documentation of illness etc. must be obtained from the Office of Academic Advising. Any request for a grade change on a midterm or homework must be submitted within one week from the time the papers are first handed back to students. |

In the Fall Semester we will aim to cover Chapters 1 to 12 of Spivak, plus possibly the Epilogue. We may also cover some material from other sources. The main themes of the fall semester are continuity and differentiability of real valued functions. In the Spring Semester we will cover the remainder of Spivak i.e. Chapters 13-27. The main themes of this semester are integration, its relation with differentiation, and infinite sequences and series. |
