Welcome:
... to Calculus! Our first class meets at 11 am,
January 31, in the Center for Science & Technology, room 103.
My key objective in this course is to help you develop
confidence and comfort with calculus concepts and computations.
In many ways this course is
perfect for doing just that. I encourage you to approach the
course with an open and inquiring mind, regardless of your
previous (positive or negative) experiences with calculus or
math. As your instructor, my objective is to give you my
best and to help you in every way I can -- not only to learn
the material and to perform well, but also to find enjoyment
in the course! Together let's make this a great semester!
