Read the corresponding sections before the date indicated. In Fall 2017, students found these videos of Professor Leonard . I sometimes use different explanations/techniques but the videos could be a substitute or complement to reading ahead the corresponding sections from the textbook. You could give them a try.

 Please read ahead section 11.6 (or watch the video from Prof. Leonard). I will go over it on Tuesday, but will cover one other section on Tuesday too.
Sep. 4 11.6 Planes in 3-space 11.6 # 3-17odd, 21-24, 25-39odd There are various softwares to help you visualize 3D objects. One which is free, pretty good and easy to use is geogebra (it even has a downloadable app to smart phones). You could also use (the free part) of wolframalpha.com . For this one, the 3D drawing command  is plot3d( ... ). Try to avoid relying exclusively on such softwares.You'll still need to be able to draw on your own basic 3d objects.
Sep. 6 11.7 Quadric surfaces
11.8 Spherical and cyl. coords.
Worksheet week 3		 11.7 # 1,9,11-14, 15-33odd, 47

Quiz 2  on Tuesday, Sep. 11, covers 11.5, 11.6, 11.7.

I will NOT collect worksheet week 3 for grading, but consider the problems from it
(as from all worksheets) as additional suggested problems.
Sep. 11 12.1 Vector-valued functions

12.2 Calculus of vector-valued functions
Quiz 2
 12.1 #9-23odd,27,29,33,34,35,41,43,45


12.2 #1-11odd, 15, 19-25odd, 29-37odd, 41-44, 45, 49, 53*,57*

Solution key for quiz 2		 Searching my website (the previously taught courses link) you can find some past exams. Direct links to the last two times I taught Calculus 3 are also here: Fall 2017    and     Spring 2012

You could use the old exams as practice, but be aware that each semester I write a new exam (plus, the material covered in the past may have been different). The ideal preparation for your exam is to do all the suggested problems and worksheets from the covered sections.
