Teaching methods

Lessons ex cathedra using also video beamer. Homework. Computer algebra will also be employed to support thoretical arguments.

Assessment methods

Written examination of 2 hours, where is possible to use calculators and books. The exam is completed by an oral examination if the written examination is satisfactory. The aim of the exam is to detect the capability of the student to face both theoretical and practical problems in Mathematical Analysis. The written examination can be divided, for the first call, in to two partial examinantion and is composed by multiple choice questions and solution of exercises.

Teaching tools

Video beamer and blackboard. Computer algebra to illustrate important topics.
