A standard-sized index card will be permitted as a "cheat sheet" on the exams. Many calculators are permitted. These include the TI-83, TI-83 Plus, TI-86, and, in general, any calculator that does not have a "computer algebra system." Calculators with a computer algebra system are NOT allowed on exams. Examples of calculators that are NOT allowed include the TI-89, TI-92/TI-92 Plus, Casio FX2, HP-48 and HP-49. If you are uncertain about whether use of your calculator is permitted on exams, bring it and its manual in for me to inspect. Use of a prohibited calculator at an exam is an academic integrity violation. Any detected violation of academic integrity will be referred to the disciplinary committee of the College of Arts and Sciences. |

The exam dates including the final were set by the College office
before you registered for this class. You are therefore expected to take
the exams at their scheduled times. If you are away because of a university sporting event or field trip, then you may arrange for your coach or professor to administer the exam. Excused absences may be granted in the case of illness or
bereavement. All excused absences must be granted by
Professor Shapiro.
The final exam date cannot be changed for reasons of traveling convenience. |

Software is not required for this course. However, it is highly
desirable that you concurrently learn to use
software that is of service in doing calculus and (which can also
be used in later mathematics courses such as linear algebra and
differential equations). Such software can be used to check your manual
work, but, more importantly, it will allow you to visualize the curves
and surfaces of multivariable calculus that lie in three-dimensional space.
I recommend Maple. I can answer any Maple
questions that arise, and am happy to do so. Supplementary course
materials will be distributed in the form of Maple files.
The package Mathematica is similar in scope to Maple.
However, I do not offer any help in its use.
If Matlab is your choice, then the supplement Using Matlab in Calculus by Gary Jensen may be useful. However, I cannot answer any questions about the use of Matlab.
| Maple Version 5.1 is available on the Windows PCs and the Macintoshes of the Arts and Sciences Computing Lab in the basement of Eads Hall. |
The following table has Maple worksheets that pertain to the material of this course. Some of the worksheets are tutorials on using the appropriate functions that come with Maple. Some worksheets contain functions that I wrote to extend the capabilities of Maple.

- the Calculus Help Room (Lopata 102). This is essentially staffed all day, M-F and will start next week. Here are the exact hours (which I am updating as the TA's give me their hours). http://www.math.wustl.edu/~blake/undergrads/ta_officehours.html - Cornerstone, Calculus Help Desk. Cornerstone provides calculus help in the evenings. This will start on Tuesday, Sept 6 and will be open from 7PM-9PM Sunday through Wednesday. They should (but haven't yet) post a schedule here: http://cornerstone.wustl.edu/ - Cornerstone, Mentoring: student can go to cornerstone and get a private or group mentor (tutor). Encourage your students to form a study group and get a group mentor. I think private mentors are available but due to resources and effectiveness Cornerstone prefers the group mentors (in fact, I think a student needs an instructor's permission for a private mentor).
