Course Objectives: |
To construct a mathematical infrastructure by teaching basic information about the function, limit, continuity, derivative and integral, to provide the ability to use relevant concepts in practice and to gain the ability to use mathematical knowledge in solving engineering problems. |
Course Content: |
This course employs the project-based learning approach. In this respect aside from the conventional content the course has a project-based learning component. The project based-learning component aims realising one or more projects designed for learning purposes involving the development of certain intermediary and final deliverables in a step-by-step mannerby the students individually or in project teams. The evaluation of the project-based learning component involves grading the project deliverables and the project works by the instructor and/or a jury.
Functions, Limit, Continuity, Derivative, Indefinite Integral, Definite Integral, Integration Techniques, Applications of Definite Integral, Generalized (Imroper) Integrals. |
Course Learning Outcomes (CLOs) are those describing the knowledge, skills and competencies that students are expected to achieve upon successful completion of the course. In this context, Course Learning Outcomes defined for this course unit are as follows:
|
|
Knowledge
(Described as Theoritical and/or Factual Knowledge.)
|
1) Learn to use the concepts of limit, continuity, derivative and integral in the functions having a single variable.
|
Skills
(Describe as Cognitive and/or Practical Skills.)
|
1) Sketch the graph of a function using asymptotes, critical points and the derivative test for increasing/decreasing and concavity properties.
|
2) Set up max/min problems and use differentiation to solve them.
|
3) Evaluate integrals by using the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus and apply integration to compute areas and volumes by slicing, volumes of revolution, and length.
|
4) Work with transcendental functions and evaluate integrals using techniques of integration.
|
5) Use L'Hospital's rule.
|
Competences
(Described as "Ability of the learner to apply knowledge and skills autonomously with responsibility", "Learning to learn"," Communication and social" and "Field specific" competences.)
