Osaamistavoitteet
On this course the students learn basic techniques such as integration by parts and changing of integration variables in integration of simple functions. The students learn to compute antiderivatives of rational functions and to analyze and compute improper integrals. The students also learn to solve simple separable differential equations, compute general solutions of homogeneous second order differential equations with constant coefficients, and to compute the particular solution of a nonhomogeneous differential equation using the method of "shrewd quessing". After the course the students are capable of analyzing the limit of a sequence, computing the sum of a geometric series, and testing the convergence of a series with positive terms. The students also learn how to determine the interval of convergence of a power series, form Taylor polynomials of functions, and simple Taylor series. The students learn how to justify their claims using mathematical methods and to present their solutions orally as well as in written form.
