Calendar for Math 1A03 Calculus I: 2010-11

The first eight weeks cover the theory and practice of integration and differentiation.
The last four weeks cover applications of integration and differentiation.

The tutorial topics given will be covered on the Friday of the given week (section 1), and the Monday of the subsequent week (sections 2 and 3). As there is no tutorial on Thanksgiving Day, the tutorial on the Friday before Thanksgiving (8 October) is cancelled. Thus the tutorial in all cases comes at the end of the week.
Note that after Thanksgiving, for sections 2 and 3 the "week" will begin on Tuesday and end the subsequent Monday.
