SCIENCE ONE
m a t h e m a t i c s

This is one of two mathematics webpages for Science One. The other is maintained by Wayne Nagata, the other Science One faculty member from the Mathematics Department. You should check this page and Wayne's, not the page on Connect, for assignments, grades and announcements. The main Science One page is here, and the Science One Connect page may be accessed through UBC's Connect page.

I will be holding office hours during the exam period at the times below. You are also welcome to ask questions or arrange appointments via email; my contact information is at the top of the main page.

There will be a review session for math from 2:00 to 4:00 on Wednesday, April 17, in the Science One area.

The official grade sheet will be updated regularly in this section. Please check that your marks are correct.

assignments and exams

Instructions for the Math Lab are available here. Some consultation, particularly at the beginning of the process, is necessary. Please talk to Wayne or myself if you have any questions at all.

Old assignments will be posted here: 1, 2, 3 (WeBWorK only), 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13.

You may also download your October midterm test and February midterm test, as well as your December exam, here.

resources

Short lists of practice problems will be posted here as topics are covered: separable differential equations, Taylor's Theorem.

Extra precalculus questions have been made available on WeBWorK, under the assignment name "Precalculus".

An extensive collection of online resources is available here. You are encouraged to browse and use these resources. (You can navigate directly to webpages by clicking the red text.) These were assembled for another course so the descriptions apply to a different textbook, but the rest should be self-explanatory.

Drop-in help is available for all first-year students at the Math Learning Centre (MLC) in LSK 100. The MLC is open from 9:00 to 7:00 every weekday but Friday, when it is open from 9:00 to 4:00. During the exam period, the MLC is open from 9:00 to 9:00 every weekday.

A former Science One student maintains a blog, Scratches on the Notepad, with helpful information about the transition to university.
