The course  has three fundamental parts: the differential calculus, integral calculus and vector analysis.
										
											
										
											The objectives of the course are:
										
											
										
											(i) Understand the basics in each of these parts. These concepts include both the definitions of the mathematical objects that are introduced and their interrelation.
										
											
										
											(ii) Know how to apply the concepts studied coherently to the approach and resolution of problems.
										
											
										
											(iii) Acquire skills in mathematical writing and in calculus.

The methodology will be the standard for this type of subject with theory classes, problems and a practical session.

Assessment

Continous Assessment Activities

Title	Weighting	Hours	ECTS	Learning Outcomes
Final Exam	50%	3	0.12	1, 2, 5, 3, 6, 4, 7, 8, 9, 10
Midterm Exam	40%	3	0.12	1, 2, 5, 3, 6, 4, 7, 8, 9, 10
Recovery Exam	90%	3	0.12	1, 2, 5, 3, 6, 4, 7, 8, 9, 10
Seminar	10%	2	0.08	1, 2, 5, 3, 6, 4, 7, 8, 9, 10

Evaluation Instruments (all grades range from 0 to 10): 

• A partial written evaluation test will be conducted, from which grade A1 will be obtained.
• A second partial written evaluation test will be conducted, from which grade A2 will be obtained.
• There will be a practical problem-solving session (seminar) with grade S. The grade S is not recoverable.

With this procedure, the course grade is calculated using the following formula:

Q1 = 0.1S + 0.4A1 + 0.5*A2.

This means the seminar will count for 10% of the total course grade, the first partial test for 40%, and the second partial test for 50%.

The course is considered passed if Q1 is greater than or equal to 5, with a minimum grade of 3 required for each of the partial tests A1 and A2. The allocation of honors will be decided at this point.

Those whose Q1 grade is less than 5 will have the opportunity to take a recovery exam, either for the first part of the course, the second part, or for the entire course. If recovering only the first or second part, the previous grade A1 or A2 will be replaced, respectively (meaning the previous grade obtained will be forfeited). If recovering the entire course, the new grade will be

Q2 = 0.1S + 0.9R,

where R is the grade of the recovery exam for the entire course. Those who, after taking the recovery exam (whether for the first part, second part, or entire course), obtain a grade Q1 or Q2 of 5 or higher will pass the course, although the final course grade will be 5 if it was passed during the recovery period (regardless of the final grade Q1 or Q2).

Students may participate in the recovery to improve their overall course grade Q1 only if it is above 5 before the day of the recovery (meaning a course grade higher than 5 can only be obtained on the day of recovery if Q1 is greater than 5 before the day of recovery).

 

All evaluation dates will be announced in advance through the Virtual Campus/Moodle to students enrolled in the subject.

 

Individuals who attend only one or none of the regular assessment evidences (A1, A2, or S), and who also do not attend the recovery exam (R) will receive the grade of "no avaluable".

 

Unique Evaluation

Students opting for the unique evaluation mode must take a final written exam (resulting in grade A). Subsequently, they must submit a problem assignment. The professors will conduct an interview based on the assignment, and grade P will be obtained from this.

The final grade will be Q = 0.1P + 0.9A. If the grade Q is less than 5, there will be another opportunity to pass the course through the recovery exam scheduled on the date indicated in the exam calendar. In this exam, the grade A can be recovered. The grade P is not recoverable. If the course is passed through the recovery exam, in this case the final course grade will be 5 (regardless of the final grade Q). Not attending the unique evaluation written test nor its recovery will result in the grade of "no avaluable."
