MAT 126 is the second semester of the three-semester calculus sequence MAT 125/126/127. This is a continuation of MAT 125, covering integral calculus. Topics covered include: the fundamental theorem, symbolic and numeric methods of integration, area under a curve, volume, applications such as work and probability, complex numbers. Knowledge of this subject matter is essential for those wishing to pursue studies in mathematics, the physical sciences, economics, engineering, and a host of other fields. A good grasp of differentiation is assumed at the outset.

This is a free online textbook that can be downloaded for from here. In this course we will cover Sections 1, 2, 3, and 7.

Lumen provides a free (to the student) online homework management system that generates random variations of problems selected by the instructor and grades them automatically. You do NOT need to sign up for a Lumen OHM account; the assignments should be visible to you through Blackboard. In fact, if you access the homework from an individually set up Lumen OHM account, and not through Blackboard, your homework grades may not be recorded in Blackboard correctly.

Multiple attempts are allowed for each problem without a penalty. In general, the Lumen OHM problems only give credit for a correct answer in the correct form; there is no partial credit. Since the assignements are automatically graded by the system, you will see the results right away.

Access Lumen OHM Through Blackboard. There is a link to the class Lumen page in Blackboard, just underneath the Zoom link on left hand side. It is important to access homework through this link, so that Lumen knows to transfer your grades back to Blackboard. If you have used Lumen OHM before, you may have accessed it by first logging in and then using a Course ID and Enrollment Key, but we are not using this method for MAT 126 this Fall. Please let me know if you have any trouble seeing the Lumen content using the link in Blackboard.

There are good reasons for this policy. By not using a calculator, you will

• learn to think, rather than just to push buttons;
• thoroughly internalize the material, and hence retain your knowledge long after the course is over;
• develop a much greater sense of confidence in your mathematical abilities; and
• be guaranteed a higher degree of fairness on the exams, since unfair advantage will not be given to those who buy more powerful machines.

• Mathematics is cumulative. Keep up! Read the text and think about the subject before attending the lecture. If you find yourself falling behind, get help right away!
• Mathematics is not a spectator sport. Be sure to do your homework every week. Doing extra problems is the best way to improve your understanding of the subject.

A grade of Incomplete will be granted only if documented circumstances beyond your control prevent you from taking the final exam.

No late homework will be accepted. However, again if you miss a homework assignment due to documented circumstances beyond your control, then, at the discretion of the course coordinator, the relevant score may be dropped in computing your course grade.

A video with further information concerning this program has been posted to YouTube by the organizers.

The two PAL leaders for MAT 126 are: Lauren Dawnkaski (lauren.dawnkaski@stonybrook.edu) - attending Lecture 1; Kishon Ghosh (kishon.ghosh@stonybrook.edu) - attending Lecture 2.

If you have a physical, psychological, medical, or learning disability that may impact your course work, please contact the Student Accessibility Support Center, 128 ECC Building, (631) 632-6748, or at sasc@stonybrook.edu. They will determine with you what accommodations are necessary and appropriate. All information and documentation is confidential.
Students who require assistance during emergency evacuation are encouraged to discuss their needs with their professors and the Student Accessibility Support Center. For procedures and information go to the following website: https://ehs.stonybrook.edu/programs/fire-safety/emergency-evacuation/evacuation-guide-people-physical-disabilities and search Fire Safety and Evacuation and Disabilities.

Each student must pursue his or her academic goals honestly and be personally accountable for all submitted work. Representing another person's work as your own is always wrong. Faculty is required to report any suspected instances of academic dishonesty to the Academic Judiciary. Faculty in the Health Sciences Center (School of Health Technology & Management, Nursing, Social Welfare, Dental Medicine) and School of Medicine are required to follow their school-specific procedures. For more comprehensive information on academic integrity, including categories of academic dishonesty please refer to the academic judiciary website at http://www.stonybrook.edu/commcms/academic_integrity/index.html

Stony Brook University expects students to respect the rights, privileges, and property of other people. Faculty are required to report to the Office of Student Conduct and Community Standards any disruptive behavior that interrupts their ability to teach, compromises the safety of the learning environment, or inhibits students' ability to learn. Until/unless the latest COVID guidance is explicitly amended by SBU, during Fall 2021 "disruptive behavior" will include refusal to wear a mask during classes.
