Schedule

  • The schedule may change according to our progress through the topics.

  • Section numbers refer to Stewart, Calculus: Early Transcendentals, 9th Edition. (This book is almost identical to the 6th, 7th, and 8th editions, which you may use as a substitute if it will save you money.)

  • To access WebWork, click the WebWork link on the MTH 142 BlackBoard site.

  • Webwork set due dates are 11:59pm every Friday. Set 1 is the first graded assignment (set 00 does not count for a grade).
