Teaching-Learning Process (General Instructions):

These are sample Strategies, which teacher can use to accelerate the attainment of the various course outcomes.

  1. In addition to the traditional lecture method, different type of innovative teaching methods may be adopted so that the delivered lessons shall develop student’s theoretical and applied mathematical skills.
  2. State the need for Mathematics with Engineering Studies and Provide real-life examples
  3. Support and guide the students for self-study.
  4. You will also be responsible for assigning homework, grading assignments and quizzes, and documenting students’ progress
  5. Encourage the students for group learning to improve their creative and analytical skills
  6. Show short related video lectures in following ways:
    • As an introduction to new topics (pre-lecture activity).
    • As a revision of topics (post-lecture activity).
    • As additional examples (post-lecture activity).
    • As an additional material of challenging topics (pre and post lecture activity).
    • As a model solution of some exercises (post-lecture activity)

Course Outcomes:

(Course Skills Set) After successfully completing the course, the student will be able to understand the topics:

  • Apply the concept of change of order of integration and change of variables to evaluate multiple integrals and their usage in computing the area and volume.
  • Illustrate the applications of multivariate calculus to understand the solenoidal and irrotational vectors and also exhibit the inter dependence of line, surface and volume integrals.
  • Formulate physical problems to partial differential equations and to obtain solution for standard practical PDE’s.
  • Apply the knowledge of numerical methods in modelling of various physical and engineering phenomena.
  • Solve first order ordinary differential equations arising in engineering problems.
