Catalog Description: |
Introduction to the integral calculus of algebraic, exponential,
and logarithmic functions with the associated analytical
geometry. An emphasis on exponential, logarithmic, and inverse trig functions.
Completion of both MATH 109 and MATH 110 will be equivalent of the
completion of MATH 111.
Prerequisite: MATH 109. (Offered J-Term only.)
|
| Prerequisites: |
Students must complete MATH 109 before taking this
course.
|
|
Required Course Materials: |
Larson, Hostetler and Edwards, Calculus, 9th edition, Brooks/Cole, 2010
|
|
Course Coordinator: |
Douglas C. Phillippy, Ph.D., Associate Professor of Mathematics
|
|
Course Audience: |
Students majoring in mathematics, computer science, engineering,
physics, chemistry, or economics. Intended for students who
desire to have Calculus I presented at a slower pace and those
who have already completed MATH 109 Calculus I, Part I.
|
|
Course Objectives: |
- To develop a rigorous understanding of the concept of integration.
- To develop an understanding of the calculus of
transcendental functions.
- To strengthen the student’s mathematics background by
reviewing selected precalculus topics as they are needed in
the calculus sequence.
- To enhance learning by examining geometric, numerical,
and algebraic aspects of each problem.
- To acquire an understanding of the breadth of
mathematics by introducing applications in a wide variety of
scientific fields.
- To use the tools of Calculus to formulate and solve
multi-step problems and to interpret the numerical results.
- To develop the student’s ability to communicate
mathematical concepts through a series of written laboratory
assignments and classroom discussions.
- To select and use technology when appropriate in problem solving.
