Calculator Calculators are NOT permitted on exams and recitation assignments. Please avoid using a
calculator on homework as it will not help you prepare for the exams.
First Week Activity All faculty members are required to document students' academic activity and engagement at the
(required of all beginning of each course. In order to document that you began this course, you need to go to
students) Webcourses@UCF (www.webcourses.ucf.edu), and login with your NID and NID password to
complete “Assignment for Financial Aid” no later than 5:00PM on Friday, January 11, 2019.
Failure to do so will result in a delay in the disbursement of your financial aid.
Attendance of all the lectures, recitation sessions and Help session is mandatory: Past
Attendance/ experience indicates that the students who succeed in the class are the ones who attend and pay
Etiquette/ attention. Observe common rules of courtesy. Once inside the classroom you must turn off all
iClicker Grading cell-phones and laptops, as they are not to be used during class. You should plan on staying for
the entire 1 hour and 20 minutes. Avoid leaving early or arriving late as it is a distraction to your
classmates and your instructor.
iClicker2 will be used during lectures. There will be three iClicker questions graded throughout
class. Points for Clicker questions will be assigned as follows: 0 points for no response, 1 point
for an incorrect response, and 2 points for a correct response.
The work submitted in this class is expected to be your own. Forms of cheating/academic
Academic Honesty dishonesty include (but are not limited to): communicating with another student during a test
(this includes giving information to another student as well as receiving that information),
bringing in and using unauthorized material of any sort during a test, using a calculator on a test,
and communicating contents of a test to another student. Using two iClicker2s during class is
PROHIBITED. If a student “clicks in” for another student who is not in the classroom,
both students will face disciplinary actions which will include receiving a ZF for the course
grade. UCF faculty members have a responsibility for your education and the value of a UCF
degree, and so seek to prevent unethical behavior and when necessary respond to infringements
2
of academic integrity. Penalties can include a failing grade on an assignment or in the course,
suspension or expulsion from the university, and/or a "Z Designation" on a student's official
transcript indicating academic dishonesty, where the final grade for this course will be preceded
by the letter Z. For more information about the Z Designation, please see http://www.z.ucf.edu/
In addition, further disciplinary action through the university may be taken. Please be
aware that disciplinary action through the university could result in suspension or expulsion. For
more information on academic honesty, please see the Golden Rule contents available at
http://www.goldenrule.sdes.ucf.edu.
Online Homework There will be graded online homework, which utilizes the Enhanced WebAssign software
packaged with your textbook. As these assignments must be completed online, students will be
expected to have access to a computer. Students may use a home computer or any computer in
one of the computer labs/library on the main campus.
All assignments will have posted due dates and these due dates will not be extended under any
circumstance. To access WebAssign, you need to go to Webcourses@UCF
(www.webcourses.ucf.edu), and login with your NID and NID password. Click Modules, then
click WebAssign Online Homework. After that, click Load WebAssign in a new window. If
you already have a WebAssign account, fill in your Username and Password to link your
account. Otherwise, click Create Account and then fill in your Username (create one on your
own) and Email (your Knights email) to CREATE ACCOUNT.
Personal computer issues, including login errors, will NOT be a reason to offer any type of
extension. If you are experiencing computer issues with Web Assign, you are encouraged to
contact the 24 hour a day technical support at 800-354-9706.
Typically, there will be about ten questions from each section of material in the online
homework assignments. When there are multiple attempts allowed on a question, the last
submitted answer is the one used for grading purposes. The two lowest homework scores will be
dropped at the end of the semester.
Additional Resources The Math Success Center, located at MSB 113, provides free tutoring to Calculus students. Note
for Help that the Math Lab is not the MALL. More information about the Math Lab including hours of
operation is available at http://math.cos.ucf.edu/undergraduate/math-lab/. Additionally, the
online homework system contains further resources (such as videos, animations, fully solved
problems and personal study plan). You are also welcome to visit your instructor or recitation
leader during his or her office hours.
iClicker2 We will be using the iClicker2 feedback system in every lecture to provide an interactive
classroom environment. Be prepared to “click-in” your answers to the questions posed.
Participation and attendance grades will reflect iClicker2 responses.
Purchase: Be sure to purchase the correct iClicker2 for our course as there several types of
clickers available. If desired, it may be possible to find an iClicker2 secondhand, and/or to sell
your used iClicker2 at the end of the semester.
Registration: Register at https://www1.iclicker.com/register-clicker/
Be sure to enter your NID in the Student ID field on the web site, including the two leading
letters, and your Knights email in the Email field. Students are required to register their
iClicker2 before the second class meeting. A student who fails to register their iClicker2 by the
end of the second week will not receive lecture participation points until registered and any zeros
earned will not be changed.
Policy: The following policies will apply to the use of iClicker2 in the course:
• Each student is responsible for registering their own clicker ID under the correct student
name as listed in MyUCF.
• iClicker2s must be registered at the start of the semester even if registered during a
previous semester. Should a student replace an iClicker2 during the semester, the
student is responsible for registering the new iClicker2 and informing the instructor.
3
• Using two iClicker2s during class is PROHIBITED. If a student “clicks in” for
another student who is not in the classroom, both students will face disciplinary
actions which will include receiving a ZF for the course grade.
• If a student fails to bring their iClicker2 to class, they will not receive class participation
points associated with the clicker responses for that day.
• Students are expected to come to class prepared with fresh batteries for their iClicker2.
Dead batteries will not excuse missed clicker responses.
• Unless otherwise specified, discussing clicker questions in class is NOT cheating; it is
part of the learning exercise.
• A student who owns an iClicker can use it during class but there will be some questions
that cannot be answered as the iClicker does not have numeric ability like the iClicker2.
• If you purchased an iClicker and want to purchase an iClicker2, there is a rebate
available at
http://www.iclicker.com/customers/education/UniversityOfCentralFloridaTradeIn/
If you purchase an iClicker2 for your math class and need an iClicker for some other class, the
iClicker2 is “backwards” compatible. This means that the iClicker2 has the capability to answer
any iClicker question. As noted above, the opposite is not true as the iClicker can only answer
the multiple choice questions that you will have in class whereas the iClicker2 can answer the
multiple choice and the free response numeric questions.
There will be three (paper and pencil) tests throughout the semester and a (paper and pencil)
Tests and Final Exam comprehensive final exam. Eligible students electing to take their tests with Student
Accessibility Services must schedule their tests with SAS within the allotted scheduling time
period for each test.
A grade of zero on a test will be assigned in one of the following situations:
• the student misses his/her scheduled exam;
• the student violates the UCF academic integrity policies during the exam or in any
circumstance relative to the exam;
• The student takes the exam in a lecture in which the student is not registered.
If there is a mistake in the grading of your exam:
• Do not write on your test or alter it in any way. Doing so will make you ineligible for a
regrade. Describe the mistake on a separate piece of paper, and deliver both the test and
this paper to your TA by the deadline which was announced at the time the test was
returned.
• Your entire test may be regraded. You will receive the correct grade, according to the
rubric, even if it is lower than your current grade.
• This is not a forum for negotiating partial credit.
• A regrade which is based on a comparison with other exams will only be considered if
all exams in question are resubmitted.
Test 1: Thursday, 02/07/19 during lecture time (covers sections 1.4-2.8)
Test Dates Test 2: Thursday, 03/07/19 during lecture time (covers sections 3.1-3.11)
Test 3: Thursday, 04/04/19 during lecture time (covers sections 4.1-4.5, 4.7, 4.9)
Final Exam: Saturday, 04/27/19, 10:00AM – 12:50PM in CB2 201 (covers sections 1.4-5.5)
Exam, homework, and recitation assignment make-ups will typically not be given. Personal
Make-up Policy travel plans, medical reasons, and personal or family emergencies are not valid reasons for taking
tests at a time different than scheduled. Should you miss an exam, you will receive a grade of
zero, which will automatically count as your lowest exam grade. Your Final Exam grade will be
used as the grade of the missed exam.
Exception: Should you miss an exam because of your participation in official University-
