Overview
Calculus 1 introduces students to the fundamental concepts of differential and integral calculus, with a focus on derivatives, integrals, limits, and series. Emphasis is placed on understanding and applying these concepts to solve real-world problems. In addition, students will use Python programming to write code that tackles calculus problems, strengthening both computational skills and problem-solving abilities. This course combines theory with practical application, preparing students for further studies in mathematics, programming, and related fields.
Learning highlights
- Learn and apply differentiation rules and techniques.
- Use derivatives to solve practical problems, including gradients and optimisation.
- Master integration methods and apply the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus.
- Apply integrals to real problems such as area and accumulation.
- Understand limits and their role in connecting calculus concepts.
- Work with infinite series, including Taylor and Maclaurin expansions.
- Write Python programs to solve calculus problems.
- Apply learned techniques to real-world problems efficiently.

Methodology
Students will learn through a combination of lectures, exercises, and practice problems. The course structure includes:
Lectures: introduce and explain key concepts in limits, continuity, differentiation, and integration.
Daily exercises: Assign five+ practice problems each day to reinforce techniques taught in lectures.
Weekly reviews: recap and practise the week's content.
Weekend challenges: assign 10+ challenging problems over the weekend to deepen understanding and application of the week's topics.
Quizzes: assess understanding of key topics after major sections (derivatives and integrals).
Oral exam: Conduct a 10-minute oral assessment on the final day to evaluate conceptual understanding.
Final exam: comprehensive assessment at the end of the course.
