Welcome Math 201 Students
Blackboard
Blackboard for the course is available and contains copies of important items mentioned below, as well as a link to the OneNote I use during lecture. I am constantly adding materials to BB and announce when I do via email from WebWorK. I encourage you to use Blackboard to communicate with each other, especially to set up study groups.
Handouts
We will be using a different, free, text as mentioned in the first link and on Blackboard. A mapping between the department text by Stewart and the Strang, et al, book we are using is attached under "Documents" at the bottom of the page.
