Practice Problems from Dec 06 3-dimensional Fundamental Theorems: Sample Problems Note: This webpage contains information pertinent to Section 11 of Math 233. For grading scale, grading scheme, syllabus, weekly lecture schedule and other information applicable across all sections, please visit the course chair's website
You can download a copy of the course handout (including a description of the make-up exam policy) for section 11 by clicking this link. Math 233 is 4-credit course on Multivariable Calculus. The learning objectives of this course are as follow:

• Use vectors to express and solve geometric problems in R² and R³
• Master the computational techniques and qualitative understanding of calculus in higher dimension, such as analyzing local max and min, finding tangent plane approximations, determining constrained optimizations, and calculating multiple integrals in variouis coordinate systems
• Learn the geometric and physical intuition behind vector fields (e.g. conservative fields, fluid flow)
• Develop the three master theorems in Vector Analysis (Greens, Stokes andd Gauss) and understand their mathematical significance and physical interpretations

Homework
Important Note: Your weekly homework will be done using the Webassign system.

• To enroll yourself into Section 11 of Webassign, please follow the instruction in the WebAssign enrollment section of this webpage
• The class key for Section 11 is umass 1498 5447
  Warning: Different sections have different keys so do not share this key with students in another section and/or use the key from another section!
• Webassign gives a 2-week payment grace period to let you get started on the homework, but that you will have to pay to make sure you have continued access.
• There is a limit to the number of times you can attempt each webassign problem, and each student's webassign problem set is individually customized
• Problem sets are updated from each lecture so check webassign regularly -- be sure to pay attention to the due date!
• Unless otherwise stated, each weekly problem set is due Friday at 9am

Note

• No late homework/quiz. Instead I will drop the TWO weekly problem sets and respectively TWO quizzes with the lowest grade precentage (including HW you did not hand-in, for any non-preapproved reason) when I compute your final HW grades
• The homework assigned are meant to give you an opportunity to practice and to reinforce skills and concepts taught in class. They are NOT the only such problems, and your exams may contain questions rather different from these.
• You are welcome to work with your fellow students. However, you must do your own problem set. Violation of this rule is considered to be a form of cheating and will be handled accordingly.

Other administrative details

• the only way to add/drop a course/section is via SPIRE. In particular, I cannot add/drop a course/section for you.
• I do not keep a waiting list, and the Math Dept staffs will not handle these matters.
• Final exams will not be returned to the students. The Math Dept will keep them in files and will provide a student with a photocopy upon request.

Class etiquette

• Except for emergency, do not send text messages/emails or make/receive phone calls during lectures.
• If you arrive late to class, sit in the first seat you can find so as not to disturb others, and do not come up to the front of the room to pick up or hand in papers.
• You can use laptops and tablets during class provided that you do not disturb your fellow classmates and my lectures (for example: mute the speaker). They are not allowed during exams.

Religious Observance

If you will be absent from an exam or other class activity because of religious observance, you must notify me in writing, in advance of the absence, and at the beginning of the semester —within one full week of your enrollment in the course.

Drops, Withdrawals, and Incompletes

• The last day to drop with no record is Monday Sept 16. If you intend to drop, please do so as soon as possible; others may be waiting to enroll in your section.
• The last day to drop with a W is Tues Oct 29.
• An Incomplete is possible only if
  • you had a compelling personal reason, e.g., serious illness
  • your work has clearly been passing; and
  • there is a good chance you will complete the course with a passing
  Thus failing work is no reason in itself for an Incomplete.

Make-up Exam request procedure

Please refer to the course handout for details. Here are a few hightlights:

• Requests for make-up exams due to non emergency must be submitted, with proper documentation, at least two weeks before the regularly scheduled exam is given. Failure to complete this procedure in timely fashion may result in a zeroon the exam.
• If you have a conflict with another exam(s), visit the Registrar's Office to determine which course needs to give the makeup exam
• In case of a medical emergency, submit a statement from a medical professional that includes a phone number where the professional may be contacted. While it is your right not to disclose any details, the medical professional's statement must indicate that you were unable for medical reasons to take the scheduled exam. If advance notice is possible and not given, your instructor may refuse your request.

Again, please refer to course handout for details. Accommodation Statement

The University of Massachusetts Amherst is committed to providing an equal educational opportunity for all students. A student with a documented physical, psychological, or learning disability on file with Disability Services (DS) may be eligible for reasonable academic accommodations to help succeed in this course. If you have a documented disability that requires an accommodation, please notify the instructor within the first two weeks of the semester so that we may make appropriate arrangements.

Academic Honesty Statement

Since the integrity of the academic enterprise of any institution of higher education requires honesty in scholarship and research, academic honesty is required of all students at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. Academic dishonesty is prohibited in all programs of the University. Academic dishonesty includes but is not limited to: cheating, fabrication, plagiarism, and facilitating dishonesty. Appropriate sanctions may be imposed on any student who has committed an act of academic dishonesty. Instructors should take reasonable steps to address academic misconduct. Any person who has reason to believe that a student has committed academic dishonesty should bring such information to the attention of the appropriate course instructor as soon as possible. Instances of academic dishonesty not related to a specific course should be brought to the attention of the appropriate department Head or Chair. Since students are expected to be familiar with this policy and the commonly accepted standards of academic integrity, ignorance of such standards is not normally sufficient evidence of lack of intent.
