Topics include Antiderivatives and Definite, the Application of and Infinite Sequences and Series. Course Objectives After completing this course, students will be able to: be able to work with functions represented in a variety of ways: graphical, numerical, analytical, or verbal understand the connections among these representations understand the meaning of the derivative in terms of a rate of change and local linear approximation be able to use derivatives to solve a variety of problems understand the meaning of the definite integral both as a limit of Riemann sums and as the net accumulation of change be able to use integrals to solve a variety of problems understand the relationship between the derivative and the definite integral as expressed in both parts of the fundamental theorem of calculus Course Prerequisites General Calculus II continues where General Calculus I (MAT250 by StraighterLine) leaves off. It picks up immediately with Unit 5: Antiderivatives and Definite. StraighterLine suggests, though does not require, that students take General Calculus I or its equivalent before enrolling in General Calculus II. Important Terms In this course, different terms are used to designate tasks:

2 Homework: A non-graded assignment to assist you in practicing the skills discussed in a topic. Suggested Assignments: Practice questions from the textbooks which will help you master key concepts. Exam: A graded online test. Course Evaluation Criteria StraighterLine does not apply letter grades. Students earn a score as a percentage of 100%. A passing percentage is 70% or higher. If you have chosen a Partner College to award credit for this course, your final grade will be based upon that college's grading scale. Only passing scores will be considered by Partner Colleges for an award of credit.
