General Information

Overview

In this unit, you will apply the essential calculus concepts, processes, and techniques to develop mathematical models for science and engineering problems. Throughout the term, you will record handwritten worked examples of all problems attempted in a workbook to create a comprehensive resource for solving mathematical problems, which you can apply in the exam and throughout your course and career. You will use the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus to illustrate the relationship between a function's derivative and integral. The theorem will also be applied to problems involving definite integrals. Differential calculus will be used to construct mathematical models that investigate various rate-of-change and optimisation problems. You will learn how to apply the standard rules and techniques of integration. Science and engineering disciplinary problems will be explored through the use of differential equations. Other essential elements of this unit are communicating results, concepts, and ideas using mathematics as a language. Mathematical software will also be used to visualise, analyse, validate, and solve problems studied in the unit.

Attendance Requirements

All on-campus students are expected to attend scheduled classes - in some units, these classes are identified as a mandatory (pass/fail) component and attendance is compulsory. International students, on a student visa, must maintain a full time study load and meet both attendance and academic progress requirements in each study period (satisfactory attendance for International students is defined as maintaining at least an 80% attendance record).

Website

This unit has a website, within the Moodle system, which is available two weeks before the start of term. It is important that you visit your Moodle site throughout the term. Please visit Moodle for more information.

Previous Student Feedback

Feedback, Recommendations and Responses

Every unit is reviewed for enhancement each year. At the most recent review, the following staff and student feedback items were identified and recommendations were made.

Feedback from SUTE

Feedback

Students were not happy with the amount of questions they have to solve in workbook based assessment items.

Recommendation

A number of questions in the workbook-based assessment item should be revisited to reduce the workload by removing similar types of questions from the workbook.

Feedback from SUTE

Feedback

Students preferred solving smaller number of tutorial questions in detail rather than explaining large number of questions within one tutorial session.

Recommendation

Tutorial questions should be reviewed and identify the key questions to be discussed during the tutorial session in detail.

Feedback from SUTE

Feedback

Students found content and real-world applications used within the unit interesting.

Recommendation

This content should be retained.

Feedback from SUTE

Feedback

Some students found content taught in the unit not relevant to their discipline of study.

Recommendation

Content should be reviewed to include material that covers multiple disciplines.

Feedback from SUTE

Feedback

Students expected more detailed individualised feedback for their assessments.

Recommendation

More detailed feedback should be given to assessments.
