Honors Calculus - Grades
The grades will consist of individual test grades (three of them, including a comprehensive final: 20%, 20%, 20%), a group project grade (20%), and an individual project grade (20%). The guaranteed cutoffs for the grades, in percentages are: 85%, 75%, 65%, and 60%, for A, B, C, and D, respectively. Students below but close to the guaranteed cutoff can earn extra credit by doing extra work in mathematics (see How to use WIF and LN?).
The individual projects will be related to the student's major. In each project they need to analyze waves phenomena or they need to use the Fast Fourier Transform method. There are four projects listed at the end of some of the chapters of the Lecture Notes (LN). They are about topics that are informally covered by the book Who is Fourier (WIF), or enhance the presentation of the LN.
