Learning outcomes |
The aim is for students to understand and apply differential and integral calculus in higher dimensions, as well as basic ODEs. In particular: (i) analyse functions Rn?R? with respect to limits and continuity; (ii) compute partial/directional derivatives, the gradient and tangent planes, verifying differentiability; (iii) apply the chain rule, higher-order derivatives, Schwarz’s theorem and the implicit function theorem; (iv) identify extrema (free and constrained, via Lagrange multipliers); (v) set up and solve double/triple integrals, perform changes of coordinates, and apply them to areas/volumes; (vi) model and solve separable/linear ODEs and second-order linear ODEs with constant coefficients. These objectives are articulated with TP classes: some focused on foundations and examples; others on guided problem-solving, Moodle tasks, assignments, and in-class presentations.
