Teaching Method

Outline:
 In this course, we will learn the basics of vector calculus (including topics on complex functions of one variable) based on the calculus and linear algebra learned so far. This is also applied to engineering and physics, so this class will also cover them, including basic applications.
Style:
 Classes will be taught in a lecture style, and there will also be exercises and quizzes.
Notice:
 Do pre-study and review (including problem exercises). In problem exercises, do not try to remember the steps to solve a problem, but rather try to solve it yourself based on definitions and basic theorem and ideas. Also, if necessary, review the content learned during the previous years.
 Students can earn extra points by submitting voluntary assignments, and lose their points depending on their attitude, etc. in the class.
Students who miss 1/3 or more of classes will not be eligible for a passing grade.
