Lecture, Discussion Sections, and Office Hours:

• Lectures will be held in person and will be simulcast on zoom. They will also be recorded and posted on Blackboard afterwards.
• You will receive the zoom URL for the lectures via email before classes begin. Otherwise, contact me.
• Rotations for In-Person Students:
• Due to social distancing, room capacity has diminished. Nonremote students will be split into rotations (groups).
• Only one rotation may attend lecture at a time. Your rotation days (days that you can attend lecture) will be emailed to you before the start of class.
• You may not trade rotation days with each other or attend on a day that you are not scheduled without explicit permission from the instructor.
• Students attending lecture in person should bring an additional tablet/laptop and headsets/earbuds to see remote students on Zoom during class.
• Discussion sections and office hours will be held remotely on zoom only.
• Discussion sections start the week of 9/6.

Key differences between MA 225 Lecture Section D1 and some of the other Lecture Sections:

• Attendance in the weekly discussion sections is mandatory. Your video must be on in zoom during class.
• There will be a weekly quiz in discussion section.
• Attendance in lectures is encouraged but is not mandatory. If you do attend the lectures via zoom, your video must be on.
• We will be using Pearson's MyLab Math (MLM) system for many weekly homework problems.
• You must purchase a passcode to access MLM.
• You will need to provide the MyMath Lab Course ID for this class: kimura46155
• If you have taken either MA 123 or MA 124 at BU in the last three semesters, you should still have access to MLM and do not need to purchase anything new.
• Otherwise, you can purchase a passcode to MLM for $69.99 directly from Pearson when you create your MLM account.
• If you are unsure if you want to take my MA 225 class, you can get 14 days free access to MLM when you register. You must pay at the end of the 14 days if you wish to keep your access going.
• Access to MLM includes an electronic version of the textbook, Calculus: Early Transcendentals, 3rd ed. Pearson, 2019, by Briggs, Cochran, Gillett, and Schulz. The Pearson eText app (iOS and Google Play) is highly recommended.
• An optional paperback textbook may be purchased, if desired.
• Detailed MLM registration instructions.
• In addition to MLM homework problems, there will also be weekly (non-multiple choice) handwritten homework problems whose solutions must be written by hand (not typed) and submitted to Gradescope.
