Objectives
The object of the course
During this course you will learn the concepts needed to study continuous change and dynamic phenomena. With differential calculus you can study instantaneous rates of change and the slopes of curves. With integral calculus you can study accumulation of quantities and areas bounded by curves. During this course you learn how to use these concepts in applications.
Course competences
EUR-ACE: Knowledge and understanding
You have the knowledge and understanding of mathematics and other basic sciences underlying your engineering specialisation, at a level necessary to achieve the other programme learning outcomes.
The learning objectives of the course
After completing this course you know the meaning of derivative and integral as tools for modeling dynamic phenomena. You know how to differentiate and integrate. You know how to use the derivative and integral in applications.
Content
The derivative and its different interpretations. Rules of differentiation. Using differentiation in optimization problems and other applications involving the derivative such as estimation of error. The definite integral. Rules of integration. The applications of the integral. Using technology in calculations.
Time and location
The course is implemented between 6.3.2023 and 21.4.2023.
Learning materials and recommended literature
Course material consists of written material and video material available in the e-learning environment.
Recommended literature:
- Lehtola, Rantakaulio - Tekninen matematiikka 2 (in Finnish)
Teaching methods
Lectures, guided exercises, independent work
Exam dates and retake possibilities
The course timetable is agreed on at the beginning of the course and then published in the e-learning environment.
Alternative completion methods
Online course in Summer 2023
Student workload
The estimated workload is 81 hours, which is divided approximately fifty - fifty between contact teaching and independent work.
Further information for students
The course includes home assignments, intermediate tests, a pass examination and a grade examination. It is possible to pass the course with grade 1 by taking the pass examination (80% correct) based on fundamentals studied in the course. A higher grade requires participation in the grade examination. To be able to participate in the pass examination and grade examination, the compulsory parts (home assignments and intermediate tests) must be completed acceptably.
Evaluation scale
0-5
Evaluation criteria, satisfactory (1-2)
Sufficient 1
You know the concept of the derivative as the rate of change and as the slope of the tangent. Yo understand how to apply the derivative in optimization problems. You can differentiate and integrate polynomials without technology. You know the concept of the integral as accumulation of quantities and as area under a curve. You know the relation between integral and derivative.
Satisfactory 2
You have achieved the desired goals (look at the criteria of grade 1). You know many of the concepts and methods and how to apply them in familiar situations but your reasoning is sometimes deficient or you make mistakes in calculations.
Evaluation criteria, good (3-4)
Good 3
