Course Goals The course is designed to provide the Aeronautical Science, Aircraft Maintenance and Professional Aeronautics student with an understanding of basic differential and integral calculus as a mathematics foundation for further work in their degree program. It is also intended that the student gain insight into some of the problem-solving techniques used in modern science and technology. Learning Outcomes 1. Identify basic functions from their graphs and evaluate limits from graphs and from algebraic expressions. (PO1 & 7). 2. Find the derivative of a product, a quotient, a composite, and an implicit function. (PO1 & 7). 3. Use the derivative to find tangent lines and interpret tangent slope as a rate of change. Apply rate-of-change concepts to problems involving straight line motion. (PO1 & 7) 4. Use calculus to solve applied optimization problems. (PO1 & 7) 5. Analyze graphs of polynomial functions using the derivative as a tool. (PO1 & 7) 6. Find the anti-derivative of a function. Use these techniques to manipulate indefinite integrals. (PO1 & 7) 7. Compute the area under a curve using approximate and exact methods. Interpret area for various functions arising in the field of Aeronautical Science. (PO1 & 7) 8. Using integration, derive the equations of motion. Given initial conditions, find velocity and displacement equations. (PO1 & 7) Program Outcomes: PO1 - Apply knowledge of college level mathematics to defining and solving problems. PO7 - Use digitally-enabled technology to organize and manipulate data, perform calculations, aid in solving problems, and communicate solutions, ideas, and concepts.

Grading note for all evaluation items: All graded activities in this course earn scores from zero to 100. The Grade Center then calculates and weights the scores appropriately. This means that while you earn the same score for all graded activities in the course, the weights are different. Your final grade is based on the weighted scores, not the score total. See the Evaluation Items

Page 3 of 6

and Weights Chart for the grade categories and refer to the Graded Activity Weights Chart to view the activities individual grade weights. If you have questions about the scoring and weights, contact your instructor. Discussion Board Each module contains two problems for you to post on the Discussion Board using MathType. These problems are unique for each student and are based on your Calculus Identification Number (CIN). This five-digit number will be assigned to you by your instructor during the first week of the course. The solutions require supporting work and/or explanations; answers alone are not sufficient. These problems will be graded credit/no credit. If you get the problem correct, you will receive full credit. If you miss the problem, you will be allowed to repost up until you take the test that covers the related material. You can get help from other members of the class or you can view their solutions for similar problems to find out where you went wrong. When you submit a correct post, you will receive full credit. There are no penalties for making initial mistakes as long as you post a correct solution. The nine Discussion Board postings count for 20% of your final course grade. MyMathLab Homework Assignments There are homework assignments in each module. These assignments are all in MyMathLab (MML), a virtual mathematics lab. Help is available within MML for each problem in the assignment. Each module also includes directions for receiving additional help. Homework is where the material is learned and tests are where this learning is demonstrated. The more effort that is put in to doing the homework, the easier the tests will be. The nine homework assignments and the prerequisite skills homework assignment account for 38% or your grade. See the chart on the right to review the line per line Graded Activity weights.

Tests There are four tests during the course. The tests occur at the end of Modules 3, 5, 7, and 9. The tests are in MML and are very similar to the problems in the homework assignments. You have 90 minutes to complete each test. Once you have completed a test, you may no longer work on the MML Homework or Discussion Board problems covered in that test. Each of the tests accounts for 10% of the final grade, which is an accumulated 40% of your course grade. Students are advised to keep a copy of the supporting work for each item on the exam. This may be useful in case the computer malfunctions and part of the test must be retaken or in case

the instructor asks for supporting work to determine if partial-credit for an incorrect response might be warranted. Course Resources and Module 1 Quiz Each module contains links to additional resources. There are three primary resources for this additional help: Dr. Tim Schoppert videos Dr. Schoppert is an ERAU faculty member. Khan Academy Sal Kahn has produced hundreds of 12-minute videos on a wide range of subjects including calculus. This project is supported by the Gates foundation. (http://www.khanacademy.org/) Calculus on the Web Commonly referred to this as COW. This is an National Science Foundation (NSF) funded project produced by Temple University. (http://cow.math.temple.edu/) You will explore these resources in Module 1 and then take a Blackboard quiz relating to them. It is worth 2% of your final grade. You should enjoy the Calculus in Twenty Minutes video. After you finish the course, you might take a second look at this video to see how much you've learned. These resources are also located in Course Specific Resources.
