1. FINAL EXAM:   Thursday, Sept. 20 (Week 11), 6:00 to 8:00 P.M.     (posted here Wednesday of Week 4)
   ROOM: AB 2-911 (our normal classroom)
   The final exam is comprehensive (may include anything we covered in class.
   Calculators are NOT allowed during the exam.
   Have ALL electronic devices (cell phones, ear buds, etc.) powered off and stowed.
   Here's Kettering's Final Exam Schedule.
   It is your responsibility to check for scheduling conflicts and resolve them immediately. If another instructor reschedules a final exam that results in a conflict with ours, then that instructor is fully responsible for accommodating you to avoid the conflict.

2. Does anyone other than university students and university instructors use Maple?   (I do not receive compensation from MapleSoft.)
   See News Article 1 >>
   See News Article 2 >>

3. I strongly encourage you to:
   1. work with "study buddies," and
   2. attend the weekly Calc-3 study sessions that meet in the SARC (AB 3-341) every Thursday evening from 6p–8p.

4. You should review your lecture notes before each lecture. (For example, when I ask specific questions about the previous lecture, you should be able to answer them without looking at your notes.)

5. You should have all electronic devices (cell phones, i-pods, MP3 players, ear-buds, etc.) completely turned off and stowed before coming to class. Recording devices are strictly prohibited. Using electronic devices during class without my permission may result in their being confiscated.

6. If you miss a class, you should obtain copies of the lecture notes from a classmate.

7. If you are interested in purchasing the student version of Maple at a discounted price for your personal computer, please email me for the necessary information. Only students registered for my course qualify. (You are not required to purchase it.)

8. How much should a college student study?

1. Review Problems. July 9

2. Do all the examples in the first Maple tutorial entitled Basics. July 9
   1. Do not use the shortcut menu buttons in the left panel of Maple. Rather, manually type the commands as they appear in the Maple examples.
   2. You should work all assigned Maple examples immediately to help you prepare for the Maple assignments.
      
   3. There also may be Maple related questions on exams.

   Kettering has made Maple amply available on many PCs throughout the AB.

3. Section 10.1 – Parametric Representations of Curves. January 11
   NOTE: I also posted examples there.

4. Section 10.2 – Calculus with Parametric Curves. January 12

   Since Maple is a required component of this course, you should be finished with Assignment 2 by now.

   To stay on schedule, you should finish Section 10.2 by Monday and start reading Section 10.3.

    • dot product and properties.
    • cross product and more vector properties.

13. Section 10.5 – Conic Sections. July 30

    You should rework each problem you missed on Exam 1. Do it immediately while the material is still fresh.

    ---

Remember that:

1. You are responsible for successfully completing all assigned problems in all your courses.
2. The exams may include problems similar to these assignments and lecture examples and may include questions about Maple.
3. We must maintain a steady pace to cover the material that constitutes Math-203. If you have difficulty with a section, be sure to see me for help immediately.
4. No matter how simple a topic appears when you see my examples or read the text, you will almost certainly have difficulty completing an exam if you do not practice the examples and do the assignments beforehand.
