Final Grades & Survey Posted Above
2014-04-30
Sorry for the delay in getting the final grades up. Technically they are unofficial until you
see them on Aurora, but if the grade you get on Aurora is different than what is here, be sure
to contact me. I would definitely appreciate it if you could take a few minutes
and fill out the survey you will find above as well. Thanks everyone for a great term! I wish you
all the best of luck in your future academics and career endeavours. Happy new year! -Rob

SOS Exam Prep Seminar
2014-04-14
SOS (Students Offering Support) has informed me that they are holding an "Exam-AID"
session Today (2014-04-14) at 3pm. I cannot give my endorsement to the quality of
the session, but I can say that SOS is a charitable student club and the cost to
attend is a $20 donation that will go towards education projects in Latin America.
Registration is required, so if you want more information, please visit

Updates
2014-02-03
Apologies for the lack of updates lately. Here are a few:
- The class examples we do in class are now available online. See below for the link.
- Quiz 1 with solutions is now posted.
- Students who are registered in B13 (12:30pm, Wed) did not write Quiz 1 on 2014-01-22 and
therefore (as discussed in class) will have a total of 4 quizzes (starting with Quiz 2)
and their quiz mark will be found by taking the best 3 out of 4.
- Students registered in B14 (1:30pm, Wed) who did not have enough time to write Quiz 1 on
2014-01-22 because they needed to leave to another class before they had reached their
20 minutes can come see me, provide me with a print out from Aurora showing your registration
in a class immediately following the lab, and I will cancel out their Quiz 1 mark for them,
just like those in B13 (will now be made up of the best 3 out of 4 quiz marks).
Welcome!

WORKSHEETS
The following worksheets are entirely VOLUNTARY, and are meant to help with
learning the material of this course as well as material that you are assumed
to know in this class.
- Domain Worksheet
- Limit Worksheet
- Continuity Worksheet
- Product Rule Worksheet
- Quotient Rule Worksheet
- Chain Rule Worksheet
- Product Rule Worksheet (with logs)
- Quotient Rule Worksheet (with logs)
- Chain Rule Worksheet (with logs)
- Related Rates Worksheet
- Curve Sketching Worksheet
- Here's a nice "juicy" curve sketching question. Graph the function
 = 7 \ln \left| \frac{x^2-3x+2}{x^2-4}\right| "y = 7 \ln \left| \frac{x^2-3x+2}{x^2-4}\right|")
given that
 = \frac{21}{x^2+x-2} "f'(x) = \frac{21}{x^2+x-2}")
and
 = \frac{-21(2x+1)}{(x^2+x-2)^2} "f''(x) = \frac{-21(2x+1)}{(x^2+x-2)^2}") .
Do not read the solution
until you try it yourself.

Lecture notes from Paul Dawkins, a professor at Lamar University (Beaumont, TX). His notes
are completely available online, and they are very well done - could almost be a textbook
in themself! Don't forget though: methods and techniques and requirements might be different,
so always do what your instructor teaches you ahead of what someone else tells you is ok.
