Math
Department Course Outline
(Note: As of Spring
2017, the course formerly known as Math 221 became Math 121.)
Syllabus part 1: Course information page, Tim Pilachowski’s sections (textbook, academic honesty and grading information)
Syllabus part 2: Course schedule, Fall 2013, Tim Pilachowski’s sections (important dates, including exams)
IMPORTANT:
The 13th and 14th editions differ slightly. See the notes
on the course schedule.
The
e-book available in MyMathLab is the 14th
edition.
The MyMathLab
access code includes the availability of an e-text, and
is cheaper for you than purchasing the text/code bundle from the bookstore. If
you want a paper text you can either 1) use a copy from the reserve shelf in McKeldin, 2) purchasing the text/code bundle from the
bookstore, or 3) purchase a used or new copy from an outside source.
By agreement with the publisher,
the same MyMathLab code that you used in Math 120
class will also work for Math 121 or a repeat of Math 121.
