Course Description

 This course covers basic mathematics necessary in the following study of computer science. The items are as follows: Set, mapping, relation, propositional logic, and predicate logic.
 The lessons from the first to the 5th are based on self-learning given by LMS, and the lessons from the 6th to the 15th will be given in the classroom for 2 days.
 This subject is related to the clause 1 of the diploma policy of the Department of Information Science Correspondence Course.
 

Course Objectives

 This course aims to improve the basic knowledge of mathematics for computer scientists and engineers and to enhance students' logical thinking power by working on the practice exercises.
 

Grading Policy

 The final examination (40%), presentations on homework assignments in the classes (40%) and quizzes prepared on the LMS (20%) will be evaluated.
 The acceptance line is the rate of 60% in the above final examination, presentations on homework assignments and quizzes given on the LMS.

Requirements(Assignments)

 Answering the quizzes prepared on the LMS for the first five lessons is required before the 2 days classes. Also, answering the practice exercises prepared in the guidance book as the homework assignments is required. Attendance at the classes is strictly required.
 Preparation of the sets and proposition on a high school level is highly recommended.
 

Note

 Students are asked to download the guidance book from the LMS, to print it and to bring it to the 2 days classes.
