This course doesnot cover trigonometry. To enroll in MAC 2233, you must have (1) earned a grade of C or better in MAC 1140,precalculus algebra, or MAC 1147, precalculus or (2) earned calculus credit through an exam or earliercoursework or (3) have taken the ALEKS placement assessment and attained the required minimum score. Youmay take the ALEKS assessment through the ISIS homepage at isis.ufl.edu. Once on that page, click on Placementunder My Online Services. For more complete information, check the page isis.ufl.edu/aleksinfo.html.Note the following paragraph: The Department of Mathematics encourages you to take the assessment evenif you have met one of the prerequisites for MAC 2233. You may need to review your algebra skills and yourplacement assessment can provide information and specific areas for additional study.'' There is a short surveyof some of the precalculus skills and facts you will utilize in this course at the very back of the syllabus in thesection titled “Short Sample of PREREQUISITES for MAC 2233” on page 18.You can check with either an advisor in your college, the MAC 2233 course coordinator, or an advisor in themath department (the main office is Little 358) to be sure that you are eligible for MAC 2233.The textbook for MAC 2233 begins with a short review of precalculus topics. You should already be competentin working this material. We strongly recommend that students who are having difficulty with this reviewmaterial consider first taking MAC 1140, a three credit review of Precalculus Algebra. You may switch courseson ISIS during the drop-add period. In an agreement with the registrar's office, you have one additional week todrop back to MAC 1140. After the drop-add period, the paperwork to move back to precalculus MAC 1140must be completed through the math department. See the course coordinator, Mr. Mahoney, in Little 476 fordetails.Page 2 of 19

Course Guide/Syllabus ForMAC 2233, Sections 2869 & 3063, Survey of Calculus 1Calculator PolicyFor text and homework problems, a scientific calculator doing basic statistics may be needed. For calculatingnumerical answers to homework questions which could be extremely grueling by hand, simply typing an exactexpression into a Google Search Engine box will often produce an adequate decimal approximation. A graphingcalculator or computer program such as Wolfram Alpha can be useful study and learning tools when usedappropriately, but are not essential. The coordinator DOES NOT recommend and actually DISCOURAGES the useof Wolfram Alpha because it has the ability to perform the Calculus and Precalculus skills which the studentneeds to practice and is expected to master. Remember that calculus is a collection of concepts and ideas thatare not mastered through calculator skills. No calculators are permitted on exams.How “You” Can Be SuccessfulTo keep it simple, “You”, the student reading this, should follow these guidelines to assure your success in thecourse: Have a strong precalculus background. Let’s not try to build a palace on a poor foundation. Have a great attitude and put in great effort. It’s more likely for something to come out positive ifpositive is what was put in. Make sure that your computers, smart phones, and other devices are not sending important emailsfrom any of the following email addresses to the spam or trash folders: gatormm@ufl.edu,ashwini.rc@ufl.edu, kiarahall@ufl.edu, s.khonthapagdee@ufl.edu, LISTSERV@lists.ufl.edu, andnotifications@instructure.com. Attend lecture regularly and participate in class as much as you can. Even if it’s just in your head, answerthe questions posed by your instructor in class. MAC 2233 is a 3-credit course, therefore it’s recommended you spend at least 6 hours per week outsideof class studying for it. Be aware that much of the learning of mathematics at the university level takesplace outside of the classroom. This is not just doing the assigned homework, this is reviewing lecturenotes, memorizing terminology, reviewing old exams, etc. Take advantage of the resources listed in the “Getting Help” section on page 8. We encourage you touse these resources. Try forming or joining one or more study groups. Look at the people next to you in lecture, if they do notappear to be crazy or horrible people then there is probably no reason why you can’t form a team ofstudy buddies. However, make sure that your group study sessions lead to better understanding. Remember, You must be able to work through the problems on your own without any help. If youcannot do this prior to any course exam then you are not ready for that exam.Students with Learning DisabilitiesStudents requesting class and exam accommodations must first register with the Dean of Students OfficeDisability Resource Center (DRC), https://www.dso.ufl.edu/drc/. That office will provide a documentation letterto the student to present to the course coordinator, Mr. Mahoney, in Little 476. This must be done as early aspossible in the semester and at least one week before the first exam so there is adequate time to make properaccommodations.Course ContentMAC 2233 is the first in the two semester sequence MAC 2233 and MAC 2234 surveying the important ideas ofcalculus but emphasizing its applications to business, economics, life and social sciences. The course coversimportant precalculus topics: basics of functions and graphing, specific functions and their applications asmodels (linear, quadratic, rational, exponential and logarithmic) as well as calculus: limits, differentiation,applications of the derivative, introduction to integration and its applications including area.Page 4 of 19

Course Guide/Syllabus ForMAC 2233, Sections 2869 & 3063, Survey of Calculus 1Course LecturesThe lecture provides the main presentation of course material, and will follow as closely as possible the calendarand lecture outline provided in this guide. Attendance in lecture is required and Obtained via H-ITT Clickers.Students are responsible for learning lecture material missed due to any absence. Students should be on timeto class, and if they must leave early, they should sit in the back of the lecture hall so that when they leave earlytheir particular exit is less likely to distract their fellow students. Students should be aware that if they talk totheir neighbors while the lecturer or a fellow student is talking to the class it may disturb students around themwho are trying very hard to concentrate.Students can print out the lecture outlines/note shells from CANVAS by going to the Lecture Notes Page. TargetCopy Center (http://target-copy.com/), located at 1412 West University Avenue and 3422 S.W. Archer Road,sells a course packet containing this guide, blank lecture notes, the written homework list, and some old examsfrom a previous semester. Having a physical copy of the notes will make it easier to take notes and toparticipate in lecture.Completed lecture notes will be posted on CANVAS in the form of NON-PRINTABLE PDF files. A particular filledin lecture will be posted within one week following the completion of that lecture in class. If a student cannotwait for a particular filled-in lecture to be posted, he or she may visit their instructor’s office hours to view thecompleted notes or copy from a friend in the class.Note: The lecture notes and many other documents posted on CANVAS are in PDF format which requires theAcrobat Reader. Student may download the latest version via a link found on http://get.adobe.com/reader/.Summary of Required MaterialsSuccess in meeting this course’s learning objectives will require that you (1) willingly and frequently visit theCANVAS page for our course, (2) routinely review the official course calendar, (3) have access to a MyMathLabAccount, (4) have access to either the electronic version of the course textbook (Typical) or an actual copy of thetextbook (Atypical), and (5) possession of H-ITT clicker responder system (“clicker”).e-Learning with CANVASUF's course management system CANVAS is accessed at http://elearning.ufl.edu/. Use your Gatorlink usernameand password to log in. All course information including homework assignments, lecture notes, test locations,information on H-ITT and MyMathLab, and Exam Reviews are posted on this site.There is a discussion forum in CANVAS. Mr. Mahoney, the course coordinator, is new to it. Students should feelfree to use this to post questions and to supply answers to their fellow students. Instructors and TA’s will checkthe discussion forum regularly and respond to questions as a way to communicate to the whole class.All grades are posted in the CANVAS gradebook in some form. Individual MyMathLab and H-itt points may beposted to CANVAS’s gradebook but more commonly aggregate MyMathLab and H-itt points are posted. It willdepend on how these programs are integrated with our CANVAS page this semester which was in developmentat the time this course guide was being written. Students are responsible for verifying that their grades areaccurate. Students have one week after a score has been posted to resolve any grade concerns. Studentsmust contact Mr. Mahoney for most concerns. Grading disputes at the end of the semester will not beconsidered. Students should save all original documents in case of grading questions.Page 5 of 19

Course Guide/Syllabus ForMAC 2233, Sections 2869 & 3063, Survey of Calculus 1Please note: Important course information is clearly communicated through this syllabus, and the MAC 2233CANVAS homepage. Students will be updated frequently with announcements both in lecture and throughCANAS. Students should check regularly for announcements! Announcements should also be sent tostudents’ regular U.F. email addresses so students should make sure that their computer and smart phone arenot sending important course emails to the spam and trash folders. Due to the volume of email that instructorsreceive, it is not possibly to reply to each request for information that is already posted online. Students shouldalways check those resources first!Reviewing The Course CalendarStudents should check the course calendar on page 3 for evening exam dates and plan their schedulesaccordingly. Any student must notify the course coordinator immediately if he or she has a conflict. See thesubsections titled “Exam Time Conflicts” on page 15 and “Missed Exam Polices” on page 15 for moreinformation.My Math Lab RequirementStudents are required to purchase an access code to my MyMathLab (MML). This is essential because studentswill have multiple homework and quiz assignment that can only be accessed within MyMathLab. Students canalso view the electronic version of the course textbook which will be needed in order to complete the paperhomework assignments found only in the textbook. There is a possibility, at the time this course guide was beingwritten, that MyMathLab will be integrated into this semester’s CANVAS course. Further instruction on how toaccess MyMathLab content will be provided in Lecture and posted in our course’s CANVAS page.Purchasing a MyMathLab Access CodeRegardless of how a student accesses MyMathLab he or she will need to acquire access by purchasing an accesscode. When a student accesses MyMathLab the very first time he/she will be prompted to register or log in ifhe/she has registered for another course previously. After registering/logging in the student will be asked ifhe/she wants to (1) input in an access code, (2) purchase access online, or (3) use temporary access for 14 days(listed towards or at the bottom of the page).These are the course coordinator’s recommendations to “You” the student reading this: If you have already purchased a “never before used” access code from a book store or some othersource then select option (1) and use your code now. You are now done with this process. If you have not already purchased an access code but intend to purchase it online through MyMathLab’sWebsite then select option (2). You can pay with a credit card or pay-pal account. This is more oftenthan not the cheapest purchasing option. If have not purchased an access code yet and do not have the funds to purchase it online right at thebeginning of the course then choose option (3). After the 14 day grace period ends you will need topresent or purchase an access code to continue using MyMathLab services. This option is useful if youintend to pay for the MyMathLab access code using your financial aid which has not come in yet.Students should never purchase a used text-book with the intent to use an access code from it. Access codes areusually provided non-electronically in the form of a cardboard booklet, often with a pull-off tab covering thecode. A brand new code is still in a sealed book with the code covered. More than likely the code of a usedtextbook has already been redeemed and the student will have to purchase a brand new code on top of whatthey have already paid.Page 6 of 19

Course Guide/Syllabus ForMAC 2233, Sections 2869 & 3063, Survey of Calculus 1Textbook RequirementCalculus with Applications, Tenth Edition by Lial, Greenwall and Richey. Students do not need the physical textbook as they are required to purchase access to MyMathLab and this will provide an electronic version of thetextbook. Textbooks are also available on reserve at the Library. The instructors and teaching assistants willprobably have a copy in their offices. The solutions manual for the odd numbered textbook exercises is availablein MyMathLab. While it is not required, some students may prefer to own a hard copy of the text. If so, localbookstores sell a bundle which includes both the text and an unused MyMathLab access code.H-ITT Clicker RequirementWe will use the {H-ITT class responder system ("clicker") to allow students to participate in lecture andencourage regular attendance. Students can buy them at the UF bookstore. Students may purchase a new orused clicker. If a student shops online for a clicker they should make sure they are getting the H-itt I-Cue (grayand blue color) or TX3100. This system may also be accessed using the Soft Click App on a smartphone by goingto H-itt.com. More than likely we will begin using the clicker within one week of the regular drop/add date. Youcan use your H-ITT clicker with other classes but multiple students may not use the same clicker even if theyattend or are registered for different sections of the course. The moment a student registers their H-ITT clickerthat student is the only one who can use it for this course for the remainder of the semester. More informationon registering and using H-ITT clickers will be provided in lecture and posted on the course’s CANVAS page.Page 7 of 19

Course Guide/Syllabus ForMAC 2233, Sections 2869 & 3063, Survey of Calculus 1Getting HelpThere are a variety of resources a student can use to get some additional help with the course material as theyneed it. First and foremost, students should utilize the course coordinator and their lecturer. The most direct way tocommunicate with them is to attend any office hour listed in the CANVAS Office Hours Page. That page willlist the office hours for Mr. Mahoney (the course coordinator and 5th period lecturer), Mr. Amarasinghe (the7th period lecturer), and our two teaching assistants Ms. Hall and Ms. Khonthapagdee. Students may attendany hour that is convenient for their schedule
