January and February, 2008
As you know from reading the Guidelines for Homework Presentation, I generally expect a lot from completed homework. Even more than in Calc 1 or Calc 2, balancing your need to get plenty of practice using new techniques with exploring deeper ideas means a lot of homework. In order to lessen the burden on you a bit, I've decided to divide the problems into two groups: those that you need to write up following the homework guidelines, and those that you can turn in done in considerably less detail. If you look at the problem sets listed below, you'll see that each problem set consists of problems listed in black, and problems listed in bold red.
