Welcome Math 201 Students
Brightspace/WebWorK/Communications
Brightspace for the course will be available soon and contains a link to the OneNote I use during lecture. I generally make announcements via email from our online HW system WebWorK, not Brightspace or CUNYFirst, though I encourage you to use Brightspace to communicate with each other, especially to set up study groups.
Documents
We will be following a different, free, text as mentioned in the first day handout. A mapping between the department text by Stewart and the Strang, et al, book we are using is called the roadmap between them. All of these and the official Stewart syllabus and CLO are attached below under "Documents" at the bottom of the page.
