Textbook: J. Stewart, Essential Calculus. Early Transcendentals. 2nd edition. The 1st or any other edition edition is also OK.
All students who register for this course are automatically enrolled in the Redshelf Inclusive Access program (though Canvas) and will be charged on their Pitt student bill unless they opt out before the end of the add/drop period.
This program provides students with discounted access to the digital version of the textbook and the publisher’s WebAssign content, but only the textbook itself will be required. If you already have a copy of the textbook or would prefer to purchase it from a different source (for example, you may be able to find a used copy of the first or second edition at a lower cost), then you should opt out of Inclusive Access. You will be able to opt out by clicking the RedShelf Inclusive Access link in your course on Canvas. More detailed instructions for opting out can be found here. If you do not opt out of Inclusive Access, then you will be able to access the digital textbook through a link to WebAssign in Canvas.
My notes: I will carefully follow my notes that are based on the textbook.

Grading scale:
You are not allowed to use calculators on quizzes and exams, although problems in LON CAPA often require calculator. On the exams and quizzes you do not have to simplify the final answer or find the decimal approximation. I want to see that you know how to solve the problems and simplification of the answer is irrelevant here.
All graded homework will be done online, using the LON CAPA system. Please, do not neglect it! Although it counts for 10% only, in many cases these 10% decides whether you will get A or B. It also shows your attitude which is importnant in the borderline cases.
Quizzes
Quizzes will be during recitations on Thursdays. No makup quizzes, but the lowest two scores from the quizzes will be dropped (that allows you to miss two quizzes without penalty).
