Course objectives
The course provides the basics arranged knowledge of higher mathematics. The emphasis is placed on the logical structure of the science disciplines and to acquire the knowledge and skills necessary for mastering the course of physics in high school.
Learning outcomes
At the end of the course the student will gain: Trivia: A comprehensive overview of knowledge on topics of vectors and differential and integral calculus of functions of one variable. Skills: Can use basic definitions and sentences and to make simple subsequent calculations, including application examples. Relate the subject matter physics to practical applications. Proving performed by a qualified estimate of value. Attitudes: To learn the values of objectivity and significance of scientific work.
