A. COURSE DESCRIPTION
Ma 21 is the first of a series of 3 calculus courses. It focuses on differential and integral calculus of functions of
one variable. Analysis and reasoning in mathematics are stressed and hence, emphasis is placed on the formal
statement of definitions and proofs of the different theorems presented in the course.

B. COURSE LEARNING OUTCOMES

At the end of the course, the student should be able to:
1. Apply the concept of limits in defining derivatives and integrals;
2. Discuss and prove properties of continuous functions;
3. Compute and apply derivatives in curve sketching, measuring rates of change and solving optimization
problems;
4. Compute and apply definite integrals in area, volume and arc length problems;
5. Use antiderivatives in solving differential equations and problems related to motion and exponential models.

There will be 6 long exams worth 100 points each.

Quizzes and homework, should there be any, altogether make up at most 100 points.
Laboratory exercises will not exceed 50 points.
Midterm and final exams are departmental and are worth 200 points each.
In the computation of final marks, the lowest long exam score will be cancelled; midterm and final exam
scores are non-cancellable.
6. If a student misses a long exam, his or her score for this exam will be 0, and this is the exam score that will
be cancelled. No makeup exams will be given to students who miss just one long exam.
7. A student with a class standing of at least 90% prior to cancellation may be exempted from taking the final
exam. If the student opts for exemption, his or her pre-final class standing will be his or her final grade.
8. Given below are the letter equivalents of the different numerical grades.
Letter Equivalents of Numerical Grades:
92 - 100
86 - 91
77 - 85
