Course Description

This course is conducted as following along with the lines of the textbook. The items covered are as follows:
(1) Definition and law of the exponential function, logarithmic function, and trigonometric function
(2) The handling of the logarithm graph
(3) The statistical basics

Every time I will lecture along the textbook and carry out quizzes. As for quizzes, you can solve it consulting with nearby students.
In this lesson, you will acquire knowledge, techniques, and attitudes about DP1 and DP2.

Course Objectives

The aims of the course are to encourage and enable students to:
・ understand the foundation of various functions
・ develop skills necessary for problem-solving
・ be able to apply knowledge of exponent and logarithm to actual problems

Grading Policy

Your final grade will be calculated according to the following process: Quizzes (15%),midterm exam(50%),term-end exam(35%).
In order to obtain S evaluation, it is necessary to have a correct answer rate of 90% or more in the midterm exam and the term-end exam.
Periodic tests conducted during the test period will be the final evaluation.

Requirements(Assignments)

Subtitles of the next quiz are presented each time. As preparation, refer to textbooks and handouts, solve them, and put them in your notebook (30 minutes).
As a review, you should redo the question of the quiz that could not be solved by yourself, organize the notes, and improve the computing power by solving the textbook exercises (90 minutes).
Practice tests with model answers will be distributed so that you can use them for learning.
More than 30 hours of learning is required during this period.
