COURSE CONTENT

Outcomes and Objectives:
At the conclusion of this course, the student should be able to:

Upon completion of the course, students will be able to:

1.  Calculate limits and use limit notation.

2.  Determine derivatives of polynomial, rational, algebraic, exponential,

     logarithmic, and trigonometric functions.

3.  Use techniques of differentiation, including product, quotient, and

     chain rules, and determine derivatives implicitly.

4.  Apply derivatives to graphing, optimization, and science applications.

5.  Determine antiderivatives of polynomial, rational, algebraic,

     exponential, logarithmic, and trigonometric functions.

6.  Evaluate definite integrals using the fundamental theorem of

     calculus.

7.  Use numerical integration to approximate definite integrals.

8.  Apply definite integration to compute area, volumes, and arc length,

     and to solve problems in science and related fields.

9.  Apply methods of integration, including integration by parts,

     partial fractions, and use of tables or a computer algebra system.

Methods of Evaluation/Basis of Grade.

Writing: Assessment tools that demonstrate writing skill and/or require students to select, organize and explain ideas in writing.		Writing 0 - 0%
None
This is a degree applicable course but assessment tools based on writing are not included because problem solving assessments are more appropriate for this course.
Problem solving: Assessment tools, other than exams, that demonstrate competence in computational or non-computational problem solving skills.		Problem Solving 5 - 20%
Homework problems
Skill Demonstrations: All skill-based and physical demonstrations used for assessment purposes including skill performance exams.		Skill Demonstrations 0 - 0%
None
Exams: All forms of formal testing, other than skill performance exams.		Exams 70 - 95%
Multiple choice and free response exams; quizzes
Other: Includes any assessment tools that do not logically fit into the above categories.		Other Category 0 - 10%
