Controlling Purpose:
The course is designed to strengthen the student’s understanding of concepts introduced in Calculus I and to prepare him for using these skills in other courses and related areas.
Learner Outcomes:
Upon completion of the course, the student will be proficient with the various techniques of differentiation and integration of plane curves, and be able to apply this knowledge to areas such as the physical sciences, higher mathematics, engineering, technology, and the computer sciences. The student will also be introduced to multi variate calculus and vectors in 2- and 3- space.
Unit Outcomes for Criterion Based Evaluation:

Projects Required:
Projects may or may not be required. Any projects will be announced in class.
Text Book:
Contact the Bookstore for current textbook.
Major Equipment Required:
Graphics Calculator, TI-83 or TI-84 Plus.
Attendance Policy:
Students should adhere to the attendance policy outlined by the instructor in the course syllabus.
Grading Policy:
The grading policy will be outlined by the instructor in the course syllabus.
Quizzes will be given at least weekly and will be valued at 20 points each. There will be two (2) quizzes that will be dropped. If a student misses a quiz then it will be one of the dropped quizzes.
Exams will be comprehensive in nature. A student must sit for both exams to earn a passing grade. The 10-point grading scale will be used for course grades.
Maximum class size:
Based on classroom occupancy
Course Time Frame:
The U.S. Department of Education, Higher Learning Commission and the Kansas Board of Regents define credit hour and have specific regulations that the college must follow when developing, teaching and assessing the educational aspects of the college. A credit hour is an amount of work represented in intended learning outcomes and verified by evidence of student achievement that is an institutionally-established equivalency that reasonably approximates not less than one hour of classroom or direct faculty instruction and a minimum of two hours of out-of-class student work for approximately fifteen weeks for one semester hour of credit or an equivalent amount of work over a different amount of time, The number of semester hours of credit allowed for each distance education or blended hybrid courses shall be assigned by the college based on the amount of time needed to achieve the same course outcomes in a purely face-to-face format.
