Course overview and goals
Based on "Calculus I", this course provides recitation for the limit of sequences of numbers and functions, applications of differentiation of functions of a single variable and partial differentiation of multivariate functions, series of numbers and sequences of functions.
The aim of this recitation course is to cultivate a better understanding of analysis which will be important for
science and engineering.
Course description and aims
Following "Calculus I", this course aims for a deeper understanding and development of the theory of calculus.
Keywords
Limit, continuity, Taylor's theorem, series, sequence of functions
Competencies
- Specialist skills
- Intercultural skills
- Communication skills
- Critical thinking skills
- Practical and/or problem-solving skills
Class flow
A recitation class is held every week in accordance with the progress of the lectures.

Study advice (preparation and review)
To enhance effective learning, students are encouraged to spend approximately 100 minutes preparing for class and another 100 minutes reviewing class content afterwards (including assignments) for each class.
They should do so by referring to textbooks and other course material.
