remain the same. The grading scheme will not change. Any remaining term tests will also be
conducted online as determined by the course staff.

4. Course Materials

Required Text:

Calculus: Volume 2, by Gilbert Strang and Edwin “Jed” Herman (OpenStax, 2016) – Access for free at
https://openstax.org/details/books/calculus-volume-2

Students are responsible for checking the course OWL site (http://owl.uwo.ca) on a regular basis for
news and updates. This is the primary method by which information will be disseminated to all
students in the class.

Any additional or supplementary course material will be posted to OWL: http://owl.uwo.ca.

If students need assistance with the course OWL site, they can seek support on the OWL Help page.
Alternatively, they can contact the Western Technology Services Helpdesk. They can be contacted by
phone at 519-661-3800 or ext. 83800.

Technical Requirements

Gradescope (https://www.gradescope.ca/) may be used as a grading platform for some written work
(including the midterm) in the course. A free account will be created on your behalf, although you will
be required to verify the account and change the password during the first weeks of class. Details
regarding the set-up of your account and the submission requirements for your written work will be
posted on OWL. It is the responsibility of the student to ensure their homework assignments are
submitted in the correct format (PDF or PNG.) Submitting work in an improper format may result in
your work not being graded, and this cannot form the basis of a regrade request.

Additionally, students will need:

o a laptop or computer;
o a stable internet connection;
o a working microphone and webcam;
o to have installed recent versions of Chrome AND Firefox browsers, a pdf reader, and Zoom on
their computer;
o a device for scanning (either a scanner or an app that can be used in conjunction with your
device’s camera).
5. Methods of Evaluation
A list of suggested exercises from the text will be provided in OWL to supplement the weekly lectures.

The overall course grade will be calculated as listed below:

Assessment Format Weighting Date
Homework Online Assessments Schedule of
Assignments totaling 15% of final assignment
grade deadlines will be
available on our
OWL site.
Midterm In-person 35% Tentatively
scheduled for March
2, 7:00pm-9:00pm
Final Exam In-person 50% TBA (3 Hours)

- The midterm is 120 minutes in duration and will consist of a mixture of short answer and multiple-
choice-style questions. This is a closed book test. No notes, calculators, or other aids will be
permitted.

- The make-up midterm is tentatively scheduled for March 9th, 7-9pm.

- The final exam will be cumulative, 180 minutes in duration, and will consist of a mixture of short
answer and multiple-choice-style questions. This will be a closed book exam. No notes,
calculators, or other aids will be permitted.

6. Student Absences
Academic Consideration for Student Absences
Students who experience an extenuating circumstance (illness, injury or other extenuating
circumstance) sufficiently significant to temporarily render them unable to meet academic
requirements may submit a request for academic consideration through the following routes:
(i) For work worth less than 10% of the total course grade (a homework assignment, for
example) your LEC instructor is empowered to grant academic considerations without the
need to contact counselling. To seek accommodations for work totaling less than 10% of
your course grade please send an email to your LEC instructor in a timely manner.
(ii) For medical absences, submitting a Student Medical Certificate (SMC) signed by a licensed
medical or mental health practitioner to the Academic Counselling office of their Faculty of
Registration.
(iii) Submitting appropriate documentation for non-medical absences to the Academic
Counselling office in their Faculty of Registration.
Missed assessments can only be excused through one of the mechanisms above. In all cases, students
are required to contact their instructors within 24 hours of the end of the period covered, unless
otherwise instructed in the course outline.

Students should also note that individual instructors are not permitted to receive documentation
directly from a student, whether in support of an application for consideration on medical grounds, or
for other reasons. All documentation required for absences must be submitted to the Academic
Counselling office of a student's Home Faculty.

For the policy on Academic Consideration for Student Absences – Undergraduate Students in First
Entry Programs, see:
https://www.uwo.ca/univsec/pdf/academic_policies/appeals/accommodation_illness.pdf
and for the Student Medical Certificate (SMC), see:
http://www.uwo.ca/univsec/pdf/academic_policies/appeals/medicalform.pdf.

Accommodated Evaluations

Missing a test or the due date of a submitted homework assessment will result in a grade of zero
unless appropriate permission is sought and granted. In the case of homework assignments your mark
will be re-weighed to exclude the missed assessment. In the case of a missed midterm, a common
makeup test will be arranged. If a student misses a term test and the corresponding makeup test and
has appropriate permission for both, then the final exam will be re-weighted to include the weight of
the missed term test.

Absences from Final Examinations

If you miss the Final Exam, please contact the Academic Counselling office of your Faculty of
Registration as soon as you are able to do so. They will assess your eligibility to write the Special
Examination (the name given by the University to a makeup Final Exam).

You may also be eligible to write the Special Exam if you are in a “Multiple Exam Situation” (e.g., more
than 2 exams in 23-hour period, more than 3 exams in a 47-hour period).

If a student fails to write a scheduled Special Examination, the date of the next Special Examination (if
granted) normally will be the scheduled date for the final exam the next time this course is offered.
The maximum course load for that term will be reduced by the credit of the course(s) for which the
final examination has been deferred. See the Academic Calendar for details (under “Special
Examinations.”)

7. Accommodation and Accessibility

Religious Accommodation
When a course requirement conflicts with a religious holiday that requires an absence from the
University or prohibits certain activities, students should request accommodation for their absence in
writing at least two weeks prior to the holiday to the course instructor and/or the Academic
Counselling office of their Faculty of Registration. Please consult University's list of recognized religious
holidays (updated annually) at
