Assignments

During the academic year

For getting a so-called signature:

1 Midterm test (planned: week 7) (50 minutes, 20 points)

1 Final test (planned: week 13) (50 minutes, 20 points)

Quick quizes(approx. each week, 1 point each, max 10 points)

In the exam period

Final exam

Getting the signature

You supposed to visit each lecture and seminar. If you are ill, you supposed to get a medical certificate by your GP. If you miss more than 30% of the lectures, or seminars, then you have to take the course again.

Regarding to the assignments:

You must reach 40% of the points on each test. If you miss that criteria, you may write a reset test. Only the worst test from the 2 can be written again.

If you miss one of the exam test because of an illness, you may write a reset test.

Date and time will be advertised later in lectures, planned: 2 of January.

Altogether you must reach 25 points from the possible 50 (20+20+10) on the exams- and quick quizzes.

If you have less points than 25, you may write a reset exam on

8th of 2015. January ( Thursday) 8:00 – 9:30 időpontban pótolható.

There will be no other reset exam!

With a successful reset exam you will have exactly 25 points.

EXAMS

Students, who are not able to reach the 25 points even not with the reset, will have a FORBIDDEN note in the system, and are not allowed to take the final exam. They may take the course next fall.

Students with 25 points or more are going to write the final exam. 50 points can be got on the final exam.

On the very first exam the mark is composed from 2 sources: tha sum of points achieved during the academic year and the points on the final exam will be added. (So the maximum point you may achieve on YOUR first exam is 100.)

Regarding to this sum, the marks:

0 – 39 points failed (1)

40 - 54 points satisfactory (2)

55 – 69 points average (3)

70 – 84 points good (4)

85 - 100 points excellent (5)

However, if the student fail, the points gathered during the academic year are lost. In that case she/he must retake the final exam, and must achieve 40% exclusively from the final exam for a satisfactory mark. (So no points will be added to the result of the final, the corresponding percentages of the maximum 50 points will define the mark)

Detailed curricula and weekly timing

Goals: After completing this course, students should have developed a clear understanding of the fundamental concepts of single variable calculus and a range of skills allowing them to work effectively with the concepts.
The basic concepts are:
1. Derivatives as rates of change, computed as a limit of ratios
2. Integrals as a "sum," computed as a limit of Riemann sums
