Role in Curriculum
One of MTH 330 and 334 required for the mathematics major. Required for the Engineering Sciencemajor and the Physics major.
Learning Goals and Assessment Plans
| Learning Goal | Assessment |
|---|---|
| The student will be able to apply standard techniques for solving first-order ordinary differential equations (ODEs). | When the class is being assessed, the final exams will include embedded questions to assess student performance on these topic-specific learning goals. Instructors are resposible for tallying their students scores. |
| The student will learn the theory of second- order linear ODE’s and be able to solve second- order constant-coefficient ODEs | same |
| The student will learn fundmental concepts of linear algebra and matrix theory and be able to apply them to solve linear systems of differential equations with constant coefficients. | same |
| The student will learn introductory Laplace transform theory and be able to apply it to solve linear constant-coefficient ODEs | same |
When assessment activities are done, the results will be summarized in memorandum form and filed with the department chairperson for record keeping
purposes.
Information obtained from assessment will be used to assess and self-reflect on the success of the course and to make any necessary changes to
improve teaching and learning effectiveness.
