Role in Curriculum
The course will be a mathematics elective for undergraduates interested in applied mathematics.Learning Goals and Assessment Plans
| Learning Goal | Assessment |
|---|---|
| The students will learn basic theory and techniques for solving first order linear and quasilinear PDE’s in two Independent variables. | 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 classification of second order, linear, PDE’s in two independent variables and how solve equations by putting them into canonical form. | same |
| The student will learn some basic theory and methods of solution for the heat equation, wave equation, and the Laplace equation. | 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.
