Text
Calculus with Analytic Geometry by R. Ellis and D. Gulick (Fifth Edition). The syllabus of Math 241 consists of the core material in Chapters 11-15.

Prerequisites
Math 141 and any one of the following: Math 240 or Enes 102 or Phys 171

Tests and Quizzes
There will be a quiz given at least once a week, except possibly in exam weeks. Quizzes may be unannounced. There are no planned make-ups for quizzes. The two lowest scoring quizzes will be dropped, so missing one or scoring low on one does not hurt you. During the course there will be four 50-min tests (written in class) with 100 points for each test but the lowest score is halved. No make-up tests will be given, unless a written excuse according to the University Policies is presented in advance.

Homework
Homework problems will be assigned throughout the course. You are expected to have the homework done the second class day after the assignment has been made. If we have a grader, then homework will be collected once a week and graded.

Grading
Four 50-min tests:   350 points
Homework/quizzes:   200 points (50% homework if we have a grader)
Final exam:   200 points
Total:   750 points
