Overview

Module aims and purpose

To achieve a solid grounding in some of the aspects of vectors and matrices, kinematics of motion, advanced integration techniques and differential equations at the standard of A-level.

Module learning outcomes

By the end of the module, it is expected that students will be able to:

  1. Carry out simple manipulation and operation with vectors and matrices and apply them.
  2. Solve simple first-order differential equations.
  3. Evaluate determinants and solve systems of linear equations.
  4. Solve simple problems in particle mechanics.

Module content

The module deals with the pure mathematical concepts of vectors and matrices, their properties and applications, and some applied mathematical concepts in the form of elementary particle mechanics and first order differential equations.

Structure

Teaching and learning methods

The module consists of lectures, and tutorials, with emphasis on independent study.

Study hours

At least 80 hours of scheduled teaching and learning activities will be delivered in person, with the remaining hours for scheduled and self-scheduled teaching and learning activities delivered either in person or online. You will receive further details about how these hours will be delivered before the start of the module.

Assessment

Requirements for a pass

Students need to achieve an overall module mark of 40% to pass this module.

Summative assessment

In-class test administered by School/Dept Test 30 1 hour Notes permitted. Non-programmable calculators Casio Fx-83GTx or similar (lower) class permitted.

Penalties for late submission of summative assessment

The Support Centres will apply the following penalties for work submitted late:

Assessments with numerical marks

  • where the piece of work is submitted after the original deadline (or any formally agreed extension to the deadline): 10% of the total marks available for that piece of work will be deducted from the mark for each working day (or part thereof) following the deadline up to a total of three working days;
  • the mark awarded due to the imposition of the penalty shall not fall below the threshold pass mark, namely 40% in the case of modules at Levels 4-6 (i.e. undergraduate modules for Parts 1-3) and 50% in the case of Level 7 modules offered as part of an Integrated Masters or taught postgraduate degree programme;
  • where the piece of work is awarded a mark below the threshold pass mark prior to any penalty being imposed, and is submitted up to three working days after the original deadline (or any formally agreed extension to the deadline), no penalty shall be imposed;
  • where the piece of work is submitted more than three working days after the original deadline (or any formally agreed extension to the deadline): a mark of zero will be recorded.

Assessments marked Pass/Fail

  • where the piece of work is submitted within three working days of the deadline (or any formally agreed extension of the deadline): no penalty will be applied;
  • where the piece of work is submitted more than three working days after the original deadline (or any formally agreed extension of the deadline): a grade of Fail will be awarded.

The University policy statement on penalties for late submission can be found at: /cqsd/-/media/project/functions/cqsd/documents/qap/penaltiesforlatesubmission.pdf

You are strongly advised to ensure that coursework is submitted by the relevant deadline. You should note that it is advisable to submit work in an unfinished state rather than to fail to submit any work.

Formative assessment

Formative assessment is any task or activity which creates feedback (or feedforward) for you about your learning, but which does not contribute towards your overall module mark.

Weekly question sheets.
