will be assigned daily, see the WebAssign site for the problems due. You are responsible for all the problems assigned (ie: any of it could appear on the exams). The problems assigned during the week will be due at 11pm on the following Wednesday.

Quizzes and Exams

• There will be a 20 minute quiz most Tuesdays, except for the weeks of the exams. These will usually cover the homework from the preceeding week. They will be very similar to the homework problems. The TA's will grade them and return them to you the following Thursday. The quizzes are closed book/closed notes. There are no make up quizzes, but I do drop your lowest quiz score.
• There will be 2 midterm exams. They will be given on the dates listed in the syllabus. They are meant to take 50 minutes but you can take the full 80 minutes of Quiz Section. You must bring a Photo ID to all exams.
• The final exam will take place from 1:30pm to 4:20pm on Saturday, March 16. Note that this is not the time listed in the final exam schedule. It will be held in Kane 210.

Rules for taking exams

• You are allowed to use one handwritten 8.5 by 11 sheet of notes.
• The only calculator allowed is the Texas Instruments TI-30X IIS.
• There are no make-up exams. If you have a compelling and well-documented reason for missing a test, speak to the professor about it.

On Tuesdays and Thursdays you will meet with a Teaching Assistant in a smaller group. This gives you a chance to get more of your questions answered. Thursday's quiz section will be 80 minutes long so that, in addition to getting help with your homework, there will be time for a worksheet that you can work on while the TA circulates and answers questions. Most weeks there will be a quiz on Tuesday. The midterm exams will be held in Quiz Section.

The TA's are:

The only thing that students are required to purchase for this course is an access code for Webassign.

If you bought WebAssign for Math 124 at the UW, your license should still be good for Math 125.

The textbook for the course is "Calculus" by Stewart, vol.1 available in the UW bookstore. This is a portion of the hardbound text "Calculus, 8th Edition, Early Transcendentals" by Stewart. Either text will work. The custom version vol. 1 covers Math 124/5 at the UW. The custom version vol. 2 covers Math 126/324 at the UW. In addition to the textbook, you will need a "Webassign access code". You can purchase this code bundled with the textbook at the bookstore OR you can purchase a standalone access code which contains the ebook. If you purchase the code and ebook at the bookstore it is around $100.

The cheapest option is to follow this link and purchase LOE access to Webassign for about $90. This will come with an electronic version of the text.

Homework

will be assigned daily, see the WebAssign site for the problems due. You are responsible for all the problems assigned (ie: any of it could appear on the exams).

Calculators

There is a required calculator for Math 125. It is the Texas Instruments TI-30X IIS which can be purchased from many places for well under $20. The UW Bookstore carries orange ones, which they will buy back at the end of quarters, but any color is acceptable for Math 125.

You should show all work not doable on a scientific calculator. For instance, when you solve a quadratic equation, steps must be shown even if your graphing calculator can produce the solutions. Reading a numerical solution from a graph on a calculator is never sufficient.
