2024 Winter MATH101 COMMON Syllabus
2024 Winter MATH101 COMMON Syllabus
Textbook Recommended: Calculus (early Transcendentals), by James Stewart, 9E. Also, the
Student Solutions Manual is recommended for practice.
You may purchase (recommended but NOT required) one of the hard copies bundles as offered at
the University Bookstore (if you do not already have this book from MATH 100), which comes with
solution manual(s). However, if you do not want to buy the text, you may use any old edition
of Calculus (early Transcendentals), by James Stewart or the free online alternative CLP
Calculus Textbook, at https://personal.math.ubc.ca/~CLP/ .
Syllabus: We cover in this course the sections 6.1-6.3, 7.1-7.5, 7.8, 8.1-8.2, 9.1, 9.3, 9.5, 10.1-
10.4, 11.2-11.11, 12.5, 12.6, 13.1-133, and 15.8 & 15.9 (Spherical and cylindrical coordinates
only) from Stewart’s 9E. You may find a detailed course topic description below, in LECTURES
AND ASSIGNMENTS SCHEDULE.
The cut-off marks used to map final scores to letter grades are not set-in advance. Normally, a final
score of about 50% would guarantee a passing grade (at least D) and a final score of about 90%
would guarantee an excellent grade (A or A+). Grades are unofficial until approved by the
Department and/or Faculty offering the course.
Exam Dates, Times:
Midterm Exam Monday, February 12, 6:00PM-7:30PM, Room TBA
Final Exam Saturday, April 13, 9:00AM-11:00AM, Room TBA
Deferred Final Exam Saturday, May 4, 9:00AM, Room TBA
NOTE:
(a) The date of the final examination is set by the Registrar and takes precedence over the final
examination date in this syllabus. Students must verify this date on BearTracks when the Final
Exam Schedule is posted.
(b) For the Deferred Final Exam, you must come earlier at 8:30 a.m. to register. Location TBA.
Labs: A 50-minute lab session is held weekly, and to assist in your lab preparation, a set of
problems will be available on the laboratory class web page (eClass). It is highly recommended
that you tackle as many of these problems as possible before attending the lab. During the initial
30 minutes of each lab class, the lab instructor will be available to help address any difficulties
you may encounter with these problems.
Emphasizing the importance of being well-prepared, it's crucial to familiarize yourself with the
problems beforehand, as there won't be sufficient time for the lab instructor to assist with all
problems during the lab session. At the conclusion of each lab class, there will be a 15-minute lab
quiz. Expect the quiz questions to closely resemble those found in the list of lab problems for that
specific lab.
Your lab mark will be determined by the average score in these quizzes, with the provision that
the two lowest quiz scores, including zeroes for missing work, will be dropped.
The labs start on Monday, January 15.
Missed Midterm: Note that there is no deferred midterm. If you miss it due to incapacitating illness,
severe domestic affliction, or other compelling reasons you can apply for an excused absence. To
apply for an excused absence, you must inform the instructor within two working days following the
scheduled date of the exam, or as soon as you are able, having regard to the circumstances
underlying the absence. In all cases, instructors may request adequate documentation to
substantiate the reason for the absence at their discretion. If your absence to your midterm is
excused, the weight of the midterm will be transferred to the final exam. An excused absence
is a privilege and not a right; there is no guarantee that an absence will be excused.
Misrepresentation of Facts to gain an excused absence is a serious breach of the Code of Student
Behaviour.
Missed Final Exam: A student who cannot write the final examination due to incapacitating illness,
severe domestic affliction or other compelling reasons can apply for a deferred final examination.
Such an application must be made to the student’s Faculty office within two working days of the
missed examination and must be supported by appropriate documentation or a Statutory
Declaration (https://calendar.ualberta.ca/content.php?catoid=29&navoid=7238#Attendance).
Deferred examinations are a privilege and not a right; there is no guarantee that a deferred
examination will be granted. Misrepresentation of facts to gain a deferred examination is a serious
breach of the Code of Student Behaviour.
Re-examination: A student who writes the final examination and fails the course may apply for a
re-examination. These exams are governed by University (Calendar section 23.5.5)
Misrepresentation of facts to gain a re-examination is a serious breach of the Code of Student
Behaviour.
Exam Requirements: Your student photo I.D. is required at exams to verify your identity.
Excused Absence Where the Cause is Religious Belief: For an excused absence where the
cause is religious belief, you must contact me within two weeks of the start of classes to request
accommodation for the term (including the final exam). I may request adequate documentation to
substantiate your request.
Calculators, Cell Phones: Calculators (or other electronic device) or student prepared data sheet
are not allowed in midterm or final exams. You will not be asked to perform any extensive
calculations on exams.
Recording: Audio or video recording, digital or otherwise, of lectures, labs, seminars or any other
teaching environment by students is allowed only with the prior written consent of the instructor or
as a part of an approved accommodation plan. Student or instructor content, digital or otherwise,
created and/or used within the context of the course is to be used solely for personal study, and is
not to be used or distributed for any other purpose without prior written consent from the content
author(s).
Academic Integrity: The University of Alberta is committed to the highest standards of academic
integrity and honesty. Students are expected to be familiar with these standards regarding
academic honesty and to uphold the policies of the University in this respect.
Students are particularly urged to familiarize themselves with the provisions of the Code of Student
Behaviour (online at http://governance.ualberta.ca/) and avoid any behaviour, which could
potentially result in suspicions of cheating, plagiarism, misrepresentation of facts and/or
participation in an offence. Academic dishonesty is a serious offence and can result in suspension
or expulsion from the University.
All forms of academic dishonesty are unacceptable at the University. Any suspected offence will
be reported to the Faculty of Science. Anyone who is found in the violation of the Code of Student
Behavior may receive sanctions. Typical sanctions include conduct probation, a mark reduction or
a mark of 0 on the assessment, a grade reduction or a grade of F in a course, a remark on the
transcript, and a recommendation for suspension or expulsion.
Students are expected to familiarize themselves with the Academic Integrity resources (covering
the topics of cheating, collaboration, plagiarism, and substantial assistance) on the website of the
Office of the Dean of Students.
Help Sessions: Students who require additional help with assignments or have questions about
the course material in general are encouraged to visit the Decima Robinson Support Centre (528
Central Academic Building. Please read the information posted on the site

get confidential advice, please contact any of these campus services:
• Office of Safe Disclosure & Human Rights: A safe, neutral and confidential space to
disclose concerns about how the University of Alberta policies, procedures or ethical
standards are being applied. They provide strategic advice and referral on matters such as
discrimination, harassment, duty to accommodate and wrong-doings. Disclosures can be
made in person or online using the Online Reporting Tool.
• University of Alberta Protective Services: Peace officers dedicated to ensuring the safety
and security of U of A campuses and community. Staff or students can contact UAPS to
make a report if they feel unsafe, threatened, or targeted on campus or by another member
of the university community.
• Office of the Student Ombuds: A confidential and free service that strives to ensure that
university processes related to students operate as fairly as possible. They offer
information, advice, and support to students, faculty, and staff as they deal with academic,
discipline, interpersonal, and financial issues related to student programs.
• Office of the Dean of Students: They can assist students in navigating services to ensure
they receive appropriate and timely resources. For students who are unsure of the support
they may need, are concerned about how to access services on campus, or feel like they
may need interim support while you wait to access a service, the Dean of Students office
is here to help.
Feeling Stressed, Anxious, or Upset? It's normal for us to have different mental health experiences
throughout the year. Know that there are people who want to help. You can reach out to your friends and
access a variety of supports available on and off campus at the Need Help Now webpage or by calling the 24-
hour Distress Line: 780-482-4357 (HELP).
Policy about course outlines can be found in Course Requirements, Evaluations Procedures and Grading of the University
Calendar.
Disclaimer: Any typographical errors in this Course Outline are subject to change and will be announced in class. The date
of the final examination is set by the Registrar and takes precedence over the final examination date reported in this syllabus.
