NEWS AND MESSAGES FOR

CALCULUS 222

PROF. I. M. ISAACS

Fall 2009-2010


Welcome to Calculus 222 and thank you for using the web page. Please let me know if there is any other information you think should be on our 222 page. Also, please check for additional messages from time to time.     Posted Aug 15.
Someone pointed out an error on the main web page. The 2nd exam is on the Thursday of the 11th week, which is November 12, and not November 13. I have now corrected that.     Posted Sept 2.
Remember that our first exam is on Thursday Oct. 8, from 5:30 to 7:00.   We have been assigned rooms B102 (our usual lecture room) and B239, which is a smaller room.   Sara Jensen's students should go to B239, and everyone else to B102.   Everyone MUST go to the room with your own TA.   Remember to bring a page of notes and that you will not be allowed to use calculators.     Posted Sept. 24.
The median (middle) score on the 6th week exam was 76, and as promised, that is a BC. Here is the entire curve.

6th Week Exam
Grade Score
A At least 91
AB At least 86
B At least 77
BC At least 73

D At least 38
F Less than 38

I made a slight change in HW#15. Problem 51 on Page 17-16 cannot be done by the techniques I taught, so I replaced it with Problem 52.     Posted Oct. 9.
I regret that I was unable to give the 222 lectures on Wednesday and Friday, and I certainly hope to be well enough on Monday, after resting my voice over the weekend. I trust that Prof. Passman has taken good care of you.

I have put two homework assignments onto the web page; one on polar coordinates and one on sequences.     Posted Oct. 31.
