Required course for the mathematics majorLearning Goals and Assessment Plans
| Learning Goal | Assessment |
|---|---|
| The student will be able to determine whether a given function is continuous, and prove the result using the definition of a limit. | 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 be able to use the definition of a derivative to determine, with proof, whether a given function is differentiable. | same |
| The student will be able to determine the convergence or divergence of a given sequence or series, and prove that a sequence converges by proving that it is monotone and bounded. | same |
| The student be able to use the definition of the integral as a Riemann Sum to determine, with proof, whether a given function is Riemann integrable. | 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.
