Teaching Assistants
Don Kim, and Kirk Lackey The section assignments for each TA are as follows: Don, Section 12p; Kirk, Sections 11P and 13P.

Course Description
Continuation of Calculus 19B. Study of derivatives and integrals of functions of several variables. For a list of topics see the Lecture and reading schedule below.

Prerequisites
Calculus 19B--a sound understanding of derivatives and integrals of functions of one variable.

Textbook
Calculus Early Transcendentals, by J. Stewart, Third Edition.

Homework and Quizzes
There will be weekly homework assignments to be turned in to the teaching assistants. Students in M-W sections will turn in their homework on Wednesdays, and students in T-Th sections will turn in their homework on Thursdays. Late homeworks will not be accepted. Also, there will be weekly quizzes. Students in M-W sections will take their quizzes on Mondays, and students in T-Th sections will take their quizzes on Tuesdays.

Lecture and Reading Schedule
We will cover chapters 11, 12, and 13 of the textbook. The lecture schedule appears below. You should try to read the sections, or at least glance at them, before coming to class.

Assignments
The following are the homework assignments for the first two weeks. The rest will be announced later, and will be posted on this website. You should plan to work on these problems over a period of several days. Getting a head start on each assignment is perhaps the most critical factor determining your success in this class.

A Few Words to the Student
Come to the lecture and sections prepared. Keep up with the reading schedule, and start working on each assignment well in advance of the due date. A single problem may take hours to solve. Only you can convince yourself how clear a solution can be. And as much as your Professor and the TA's are commited to helping you along, you also have to work hard to make that possible.
