Textbook: Calculus, by Salas, Hille, and Etgen. (8th Edition)
If you would like to look at another book, a nice reference for most of the material in this course is available (free!) on-line. It's Multivariable Calculus, by George Cain and James Herod.
Other information: This is, of course, the initial offering of this course, by me or anyone else. The material covered is roughly what was in the old Math 1509 and Math 2507 of quarter days. If you care, you can see how I've taught those courses by looking in the archives.
Quizzes: There will be seven one hour quizzes. These will be

The final examination is scheduled by the Office of the Registrar.
You will be allowed to use any books, notes, tables, or calculators you wish on the quizzes and the final examination.

Notes: For your reading pleasure, I have prepared class notes for the material on Taylor's theorem in higher dimensions. They include some exercises for you to have a go at. [I have made some corrections to the notes originally posted; you may want to take a look at the new edition.]. You can also see Professor Carlen's notes on this same material.
For a discussion of the material about finding areas and moments of polygonal regions using Green's Theorem, you can look at Section 17.3 of the famous Herod-Cain textbook Multivariable Calculus.

The moving finger writes; and having writ
Moves on: nor all your Piety nor Wit
Shall lure it back to cancel half a Line,
Nor all your Tears wash out a Word of it.
I wish you all a happy holiday!
