Important: This calendar is subject to change; check frequently for updates. (Be sure to refresh your screen.)
  • Class days are shown on a white background
  • All lectures are posted on both Kaltura and YouTube. (You may need a VCU domain for Kaltura.)
Do the following BEFORE class begins.

Please begin by watching Lecture 1, which is posted on the entry for August 5. The topics listed for August 7-15 (the weeks before class begins) are pre-calculus topics. Please take the five self-diagnostic quizzes to see if you need to review any (or all) of it. If you do, then complete the relevant pre-calculus video lectures 2, 3A, 3B, 4, 5A, 5B, 5C, 6A and 6C. Test your understanding by working odd-numbered exercises on the Exercise List. We can address any questions in class (or during office hours).
