Course objectives:
• Appreciate the importance of Calculus, Congruences and Matrix theory in computer and allied
engineering science.
• Gain the knowledge of Calculus, Congruences and Matrix theory concepts to implement them
in their core domain.
Improve their mathematical thinking and acquire skills required for sustained lifelong learning.
Teaching-Learning Process (General Instructions)
These are sample strategies which teachers can use to accelerate the attainment of the various course
outcomes.
• Lecture method (L) does not mean only traditional method, but different type of teaching
methods may be adopted to develop the outcomes.
• Show Video/animation films to explain functioning of various concepts.
• Encourage collaborative (Group Learning) Learning in the class.
• Ask at least three HOT (Higher order Thinking) questions in the class, which promotes
critical thinking.
• Adopt Problem Based Learning (PBL), which fosters students’ Analytical skills, develop
thinking skills such as the ability to evaluate, generalize, and analyze information rather than
simply recall it.
• Topics will be introduced in a multiple representation and encourage the students to come up with
their own creative ways to solve them.
Discuss how every concept can be applied to the real world and when that's possible, it helps to
improve the students' understanding.
