Course Description:
Calculus I is a foundational course designed for students in mathematics,
engineering, and physical sciences. It introduces the concepts of limits,
derivatives, and integrals, which are the building blocks of calculus. Through a
combination of lectures, problem-solving sessions, and assignments, students will
develop a deep understanding of these concepts and how they are applied to solve
real-world problems. The course aims to not only impart theoretical knowledge but
also to enhance students' analytical and computational skills.
Learning Outcomes:
Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to:
Understand the concept of a limit and its application in determining the continuity
of functions.
Calculate derivatives of functions and apply them to solve problems involving rates
of change, optimization, and motion.
Integrate functions and apply integration techniques to compute area under curves,
volumes of solids of revolution, and solve other physical problems.
Apply the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus to relate differentiation and
integration.
Model real-world scenarios using calculus concepts and solve these models
mathematically.
Course Content:
Note: This course requires regular practice and active participation. Students are
encouraged to take advantage of office hours and tutoring services if they
encounter difficulties with the course material.
