Here is a day-by-day presentation (a word of caution: expect certain changes as our course develops), read from below.
In 13.5(pp.957,958 won't be tested): 2,3,4,9,10,11. HW 13.5: 1,5,10, 17 (and 21,22,23,24 to be aware about).
In 13.6: 2 (4 is a special case of 2),9 (10 is a special case of 9), HW 13.6: 17.
In 13.7 (p.975 won't be tested): Stokes' Theorem (p.971) (to better understand its right side, check with (9) from 13.6). HW 13.7: 1,3,7.

Recommended Chapter 13 reading is 13.1 (try to solve 21,23,29,30,31,32); in 13.2 the most important formulas are the one at the very bottom of p.929, and # 13. There is a lot of new notation (not too much new content!) in 13.1, 13.2. Try 13.2 ## 5,11,17,31,33.

Grading policy: The course is broken into 8 units as follows: Final is 4 units, Quizzes are 3 units, Attendance is 1 unit worth. The lowest of the above units will be dropped. The average of the remaining 7 units determines your grade for the course.
The final exam is on the last day of classes (Thursday,June 26, at 6pm)

THE STUDENTS HAVE THE RESPONSIBILITY TO KNOW THE PROVISIONS OF the CAS Academic Conduct code, copies of which are available in CAS 105. Cases of suspected academic misconduct will be referred to the Dean's Office.
Some of the students do not have BU ACS accounts: They can apply by following the directions found at http://www.bu.edu/computing/accounts/apply/ . Once they get ACS accounts, they will automatically be added to the site.
Homework will be assigned on a regular basis. On tests I'll be looking for proper reasoning as well as for right answers.
