CALCULUS

  1. Course Description
    An applied calculus course covering limits, continuity, differentiation, and integration with emphasis on business and social science applications. The course is designed to provide students with a sound, practical understanding of the basic concepts and results of differential and integral calculus without sacrificing mathematical accuracy. Most concepts and results are approached from an applied viewpoint.
  2. Course Objectives
    1. Learn the general concept of a function and its applications to real-world situations. 2. Learn to work with exponential, logarithmic and trigonometric functions and their applications in applied problems. 3. Learn the concepts of the derivative and its underlying concepts such as limits and continuity. 4. Learn to calculate derivatives for various types of functions using definitions and rules. 5. Apply the concept of a derivative to analyze the graph of a function. 6. Learn about various applications of the derivative in applied problems. 7. Learn to use the concept of integration to evaluate the geometric area and solve other applied problems. 8. Learn how GeoGebra can be used in calculus and visualization.
  3. Teachnig Method
    • Be punctual: Being late to class disrupts the learning environment for yourself and your classmates. Please make an effort to arrive at class on time and be considerate of your fellow students. • Keep your phone on silent: Turn off the sound and vibration on your phone and put it away during class. • Get permission to leave class: If you need to leave class early or absent yourself, ask the professor first. This helps ensure you don't miss any important information or disrupt the class. • Stay awake and engaged: Do your best to stay awake and focused during class. If you find it difficult to stay awake, try sitting up front or finding ways to engage with the material. • Ask questions: If you have questions or need clarification on a topic, don't hesitate to ask. This is a great way to ensure that you understand the material and can actively participate in class discussions. • Be considerate of your classmates: Avoid distracting or annoying your classmates, such as talking during lectures or playing games on your phone. Be respectful of their right to learn and concentrate. • Seek help if you have problems with the attendance app: If you are having trouble with the attendance app or any other technical problems, don't hesitate to reach out to your department or college office for help. • Certificates of absence: To ensure that your certificate of absence is properly recorded and accounted for, please submit it only through the EDWARD system. • Homework submission: To ensure that your homework is properly submitted and graded, please use the CTL system.

  5. Assessment
    If a student misses the final exam without any reason approved by the university, he/she will receive an F.
  6. Requiments
    • Basics of communication in English. • Basic computer skills (MS Office).
  7. Practical application of the course
    • With calculus, we can find the effects of changing conditions on a system. By studying these, you can learn how to control a system to make it do what you want it to do. Because of the ability to model and control systems, calculus gives us extraordinary power over the material world. • Calculus is the language of engineers, scientists, and economists. The work of these professionals has a huge impact on our daily lives—from microwaves, cell phones, TV, and cars to medicine, the economy, and national defense. • The learned glossary will be helpful for your future international cooperation.
