Course Information

Course Description:

Course name Calculus II; Course number MATH& 152; 5 credits
Class "152A": section D01D, item #1308
Class "152B": section D02D, item #1309

Dates: 7/6/2021 – 8/26/2021 including the final examination.

Format: This is a fully online course conducted asynchronously in Canvas and MyMathLab. This is NOT a "remote learning" format, thus has no real-time class meetings (ie. NO Zoom). FAQ - What's the difference between online and remote class? What does "asynchronous" mean?

Coverage: Calculus II is the second in a four-quarter sequence of Calculus for Engineering and the Sciences. Calculus II covers techniques of integration, applications of the integral to geometry and physics, indeterminate forms, hyperbolic functions, and the calculus of parametric equations, polar equations, and conic sections.

The goal of this course is not only to learn calculus, but also to improve your critical thinking and problem-solving abilities. This is a challenging technical course intended for those in STEM (science, technology, engineering, mathematics) majors. The quantitative skills requirement [Q] of the general education distribution is met by this course.

Prerequisite:

Calculus I (Clark's Math& 151 or equivalent) passed with a grade of at least "C" or qualifying score on the ALEKS placement or an advanced placement test.

Outcomes:

The Mathematics Department has identified the following course level outcomes for which you should be proficient upon successful completion of the course.

1. Select and use an appropriate technique to evaluate an integral.
2. Construct an integral to model an applied problem.
3. Connect an integral with its geometric interpretation (such as its application to volumes.)
4. Demonstrate calculus techniques in the context of parametric and/or polar equations.

How will you be assessed on these outcomes? See Mathematics Online Syllabus: Outcomes Assessment.

MyMathLab Software and e-Textbook:

MyMathLab access with included e-textbook is REQUIRED. Physical textbook is OPTIONAL.

MyMathLab (MML) access is required to access the tests. MML is a digital learning platform provided by the textbook publisher. In MML you can read the e-textbook, watch video tutorials, work interactive practice problems, and take tests. The complete textbook is included as an online e-textbook inside MyMathLab.

 e-Textbook that is included inside MyMathLab: Calculus Early Transcendentals (3rd edition) by Briggs/Cochran/Gillett/Schultz, ISBN 97801347636446. If you already have access to this e-textbook in MML from a previous term, then there is nothing to buy. Simply switch your course ID code to the new code that I’ll provide in an announcement in Canvas.

Purchasing MML Access:  MyLab Math Multi-Term Access Card w/ Ebook for Calculus 3/E by Briggs+, ISBN 9780134856926. This ISBN is for 3-term access, approx. $111 in Clark bookstore. If you only wish to purchase one-term worth of access, consider buying directly through Pearson online where you can purchase 18-week access for$70. For two-term access, Pearson has a 24-week access for approx. \$105. If you know you will be taking Math&153 with the same textbook this is a tad savings, but careful that you don’t activate your code until after your 2-week free temporary access ends, so it can last right through the end of next term.
