What this paper is about
This paper is the second paper in the engineering mathematics sequence. This G semester version is intensive and aims to teach the content in less than 6 weeks. All students are expected to attend all classes in person. There is an assessment of some form in every class. This class cannot be done online while engaged in full time employment. Students need to make a full commitment to intensive study in this paper.
How this paper will be taught
The paper is divided into five sections each taking a week or so. we will be using the two hours dedicated to lectures as a lectorial presenting theory interspersed with problems to be done in class. There will be assessed problems in the tutorial hour, in class, on the days that we don't have a test. These may take a variety of forms. They could be done in groups or individually and could consist of multi-choice or short answer questions.
