Teaching Method
Outline:
This course focuses on mechanics, one of the earliest established branches of classical physics, which is the basis of natural science, covering masses, systems of masses, and rigid bodies, and reinforces mathematical means to grasp it as a coherent logical system. By incorporating many exercises, students will develop problem-solving skills and acquire the ability to apply them to engineering fields.
Style:
Classes will be developed with a focus on exercises based on the premise of preparatory study. Group work will be introduced in the exercises, and students will be encouraged to teach each other in order to promote their own understanding.
Since most of the content is already known, it is necessary to review the textbook and previous class notes and understand the basic formulas in advance.
The materials presented in class and answers to assignments will be distributed on the LMS, so students are encouraged to refer to them as necessary.
At the end of each class, exercises will be provided for self-study. Each student is required to solve the exercises and submit them as a review.
In addition, online assignments via manaba will be provided as knowledge confirmation questions and preliminary assignments. The students are expected to review or check the contents of the next session in advance and answer the questions.
[30 hours of class time + 60 hours of self-study]
Notice:
The content of mathematics up to the third grade and physics learned up to "Physics" and "Machine dynamics 1" will be used as prerequisites, so students should review these contents thoroughly. In addition, self-study is essential, including the completion of the assignments given in each class session. It is not possible to give sufficient explanations of the self-study assignments during class time, so if you have any questions, please come to the class to ask questions. When asking questions, please do your own research and think about it first, and clarify what you did not understand before coming to ask questions.
The portfolio evaluation includes the evaluation of [reports (self-study assignments)] and [online assignments].
