Course Description: For students not planning to major in the physical sciences, engineering, mathematics, or computer science. Math 125 is designed to introduce and explore the calculus of algebraic, exponential, and logarithmic functions with applications. The objective of  the course is to familiarize the student with the basic concepts and techniques of differential and integral calculus and their applications in problem solving.

Text:    College Algebra and Calculus, An Applied Approach,  by Larson and Hodgkins, 2'nd edition, Houghton Mifflin Publishers, Custom Edition, Cengage Learning. This custom package of the book + Enhanced Web Assign access from the bookstore has special pricing arranged by the Math Department. 

 Required Companion Websites: Enhanced Web Assign - Start Smart Guide for the students: use the "access card" that came with your new textbook , or purchased separately directly from WebAssign or the bookstore to access on-line resources to accompany your text.
          
Calculator: A small Scientific calculator (TI-30)  is required for this class. Calculators with programmable capabilities are forbidden in this course. Cell phone calculators are also forbidden.

 Prerequisites: Satisfactory placement test score, or math 119 or math 130. If you  previously received credit for 141 or 152 with a C or better you will not  subsequently receive credit for math 125. Students who receive a grade of  C or better in math 125 will not subsequently receive credit for 119. Prerequisite: satisfactory placement level or pass Math 119 or Math 130. No students who has received credit for M 141 or M 152 with a grade of C or better may subsequently receive credit for M125. Students who receive a grade of C or better in M125 may not subsequently receive credit for M 119.

Academic Standards of Conduct (from "Hill topics: Student Handbook," 
All students are expected to abide by the University Honor Statement.  In mathematics classes, violations of the honor statement include copying another person's work on any graded assignment or test, collaborating on a graded assignment without the instructor's approval, using unauthorized "cheat sheets" or technical devices such as calculators, cell phones or computers for graded tests or assignments, or other infractions listed in "Hill topics".  These violations are serious offenses, subject to disciplinary action that may include failure in a course and/or dismissal from the University.  The instructor has full authority to suspend a student from his/her class, to assign an "F" in an exercise or examination, or to assign an "F" in the course. See "Hill topics" for more complete information. A report of all offenses will be sent to appropriate deans and the Office of Student Judicial Affairs for possible further action.
The Honor Statement:
 An essential feature of the University of Tennessee is a commitment to maintaining an atmosphere of intellectual integrity and academic honesty. As a student of the University, I pledge that I will neither knowingly give nor receive any inappropriate assistance in academic work, thus affirming my own personal commitment to honor and integrity.
