Prerequisites
Content
- Introduction to functions
- Vectors and vector-operations

Teaching methods
Learning activities consist of lectures, exercise sessions and tutorial sessions.
The lectures aim to introduce fundamental concepts, to explain them by showing examples and by determining their results, to show their reciprocal connections and their connections with other courses in the programme for the Bachelor in Mathematics.
The exercise sessions aim to teach how to select and use methods to solve problems and calculation methods.
The tutorial sessions give students individual help and follow-up in their learning.
The three activities are given in presential sessions.

Evaluation methods
Learning will be assessed by a compulsory test in the course of the semester and by a final examination. The questions will ask students to:
- reproduce the subject matter, especially definitions, theorems, methods, and examples
- select and apply methods from the course to solve problems and exercises
- adapt methods from the course to new situations
-summarise and compare topics and concepts.
Assessment will focus on
- knowledge, understanding and application of the different mathematical methods and topics from the course
- precision of calculations
- rigour of arguments, reasonings, and justifications
- quality of construction of answers.
