Notes:
Here are the updated notes on the topics from the
first
half of the course. Everything we've covered on vectors and derivatives
from Chapters 1, 2, and 4 will be on the midterm. I have also separated
out the max/min examples into a separate handout, which now includes a
discussion on how to solve for critical points: critical points and maxima examples
Here are some notes on the second half of the
course. They review material from Chapters 3, 5, 6, 7, and Section 8.1.
Announcements:

We will cover most of chapters 1 through 7 and part of chapter 8 in your
textbook. This includes material on vectors, derivatives involving
functions of several variables and vector-valued functions, path
integrals, double and triple integrals of functions of several variables,
and Green's Theorem. The course website will stay up to date with which
sections of the book we have covered in class.
Homework and Quizzes:
Problem sets will be posted to the course website. They will be due at
the beginning of lecture on the due dates, usually Thursdays. Your
