GENERAL COURSE OBJECTIVES:
a.
To expose students to the beauty, power, clarity and precision of formal
systems, in this case the algebraic and analytic systems found in Calculus.
b.
To expose students to the concept of proof as a chain of inferences, and to
have them practice this skill. Proofs of derivative and integral properties
are done in the course.
c.
To have students apply formal rules or algorithms, in this course the rules
and algorithms of differentiation and integration.
d.
To have students use appropriate symbolic techniques in the context of
problem solving and in the presentation and critical evaluation of
evidence.
e.
To observe and see the connection and transition between the general
theoretical and its practical application.
f.
To expose students to some interesting and exciting ideas in mathematics.
g.
To acquire the use of numeric, graphical and algebraic techniques as
mathematical tools for solving problems.
c.
To expose students to and have them acquire some knowledge of the
methods and logic of mathematics so they may use it in solving problems.
d.
To be able to use the techniques of differentiation and integration to solve
problem.
e.
To use mathematical writing and symbols in solving problems.
f.
To use the calculator/computer as a tool of mathematics.
g.
Use integration to solve application problems of volume, work etc..
h.
To interpret the derivative and integral in mathematical situations and use
them for solving problems.
i.
To find the series, taylor polynomials, and their intervals of convergence.
j.
To solve first order differential equations algebraically, numerically, and
graphically.
k.
To use the various techniques of integration to solve integrals
l.
Solve Improper integrals.
m.
Approximate integrals.
6. SPECIFIC COURSE COMPETENCIES:
Upon completion of this course, the student should be able to:
a.
b.
c.
Draw a complete and adequate picture of the relationship or function. Use
algebraic, numerical, and graphical techniques to locate specific points or
regions (Solve equations and inequalities). Describe the characteristics of
the relation (domain, range, asymptotes, continuity, extreme points, points
of inflection) for a function given by a data set, graph, or equation.
To use the various techniques of integration to find solutions to integrals
including tables and computer technology.
Write several mathematical papers that clearly and precisely show the
sequence of steps in solving problem, and checking the results, and to
argue persuasively through logical arguments and examples in discussing
a mathematical situation.
d.
e.
f.
g.
Use the computer/calculator technology as an aid in solving mathematical
problems.
Determine convergence or divergence of improper integrals and series
including Taylor series.
Find solution to linear first order differential equations algebraically,
numerically, and graphically.
Use integration to solve problems including volumes, work, and arc
length.
