08/04 Done!
I've sent our a final grade report with course averages and letter grades.
If you are interested, I keep finals around for a while. If you ever want
to look over your final exam, just stop by my office or let me know and we
can meet virtually.
I hope you have a wonderful (what remains of the) summer! And even though this
class is over, if you ever have any questions mathematical or otherwise, don't
hesitate to send me an email. I'd love to help if I can!
07/20 Final Exam is Wednesday at 10:20am in our regular classroom.
Come as early as you want! My other class starts their exam at 8am (same room).
Supplemental Problems: Vector Calculus [Source: (.tex)]
Last Handouts (forgot to post links):
Divergence, Curl, and Forms [Source: (.tex)]
The Big Theorems [Source: (.tex)]
Verify Stokes' Example
I will allow everyone to bring one page of notes (one side of a standard size
piece of paper) to the final exam. Also, the final exam can replace your lowest
test score (if this helps). Prepare well!
07/23 Reminder: Homework #3 is due Tuesday, July 27th.
Test #3 is Wednesday, July 28th. It covers Chapter 15 as well as the handouts on
Double Riemann sums and vector fields.
Relevant handouts:

I will provide the change of coordinate formulas for rectangular to spherical coordinates:
$x=\rho\cos(\theta)\sin(\varphi), y=\rho\sin(\theta)\sin(\varphi), z= \rho\cos(\varphi)$.
as well as the spherical coordinates Jacobian:
$J = \rho^2\sin(\varphi)$.
If I give a center of mass or centroid problem, I will provide formulas for mass and moments.

The material in our new textbook lines up pretty well with our old text, so old
tests should be of value when studying. For the most part, Test #2's are relevant.

following exceptions:
Summer 2016 skip #2

The test will cover the parts of sections 11.1, 11.2, 12.1-12.5, 13.1-13.5, & 16.1.
Our handout is worth studying: Differential Geometry Summary (.pdf) [Source: (.tex)]
[You may skip center of mass and centroid problems for now.]
Old tests can be found here.
While old tests are a good resource for getting an idea of what kinds of things I like
to ask. Keep in mind that we switched textbooks a year or two ago so there are a few topics
that aren't as relevant and a few that are missing. For example, you won't find much
referencing torsion.
Studying old tests is helpful, but make sure you also look over your notes from class
and try lots of suggested homework problems.
Relevant old tests/test problems:
All of Test #1's from Spring 2012 up to Spring 2021.

From Lisa Maggiore (lm72407@appstate.edu) our faculty Math Lab coordinator:
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
The Math Help Lab is available to provide additional help to
students with a desire to have a comprehensive understanding of
the mathematical topics covered in their class. Tutors are
available to help enhance your learning; they do not serve as a
substitute for going to class and they are not there to do your
work for you. Students work individually, or with others in their
class, and request help from tutors who are standing by to answer
questions. Preference in assistance will be given to students who
attend class regularly, and who exhibit a strong desire to master
the material.
How to use the lab:
Have all necessary materials with you (laptop, textbook, class
notes, etc.). When you click the link and are on Zoom, please
provide your Appstate username for the tutor to sign you in. When
you need assistance, feel free to ask the tutor any questions that
you have. If you have been placed in a Breakout Room so that the
tutors can stay organized, simply send a message through Zoom's Chat
feature. This meeting is a great resource for you to ask questions
or for you to simply have a good working environment. Please utilize
this resource and reach out to me if you have any questions.
Hours and Zoom site:
Sundays through Thursdays, 4-7 pm, ALL MAT courses through 2000 level,
in addition to Praxis prep, GRE prep.
STT Intro courses and "R" has full coverage.
