Course-level learning outcomes:

Course-level student learning outcomesDiscipline-level learning outcomesAssessment methods

Evaluate definite, indefinite, and improper integrals by using basic integration rules, integration by parts, trigonometric integrals, trigonometric substitution, partial fractions, and integration tables.

Construct Maclaurin and Taylor polynomials and bound the error in using such a polynomial to approximate a function.

Test for convergence of an infinite series using the comparison, limit comparison, ratio, root, divergence, alternating series, and integral tests, and use the sequence of partial sums in determining convergence.

Construct a power series representation for a function, and evaluate where it converges.

Identify conics by their equations and/or properties, use polar coordinates and polar graphs, and write parametric equations for plane curves.

Identify points in space, calculate the distance between points, find the equation, center, and radius of a sphere, and perform basic operations of vectors in the plane and in space.

Means of accomplishing learning outcomes:

Teacher Facilitated: The teacher will be leading class discussions on the material contained in the text during each class period. 

Student-Centered: The students will be solving problems during each class period using their own graphing calculators. Students will complete a portion of their homework electronically using WebAssign.  

Office Hours: The instructor will be available during office hours for individual assistance.  The instructor’s schedule can be found posted on their office door and/or via their individual web site.

ACE Tutors: Student tutors are available to provide individualized help.  Hours can be found posted each semester on the lab door and/or via the web site.
