ADDITIONAL MATERIAL is not obligatory. You may wish to use these resources, but they won't be required for the live sessions or tutorials. If you feel that algebra and numeracy refreshers would be helpful to you (for example if you haven't done any maths since a while) please take the time to go through these refreshes on algebra, numeracy this week and make sure that you are fully familiar with the methods and the terminology used as we will need this in the course. |

Online Quizes: There will be eleven Quizzes in Sem A in the form of online quizzes. There are no Quiz in Weeks 7. Each Quiz consists of 5-10 questions. All Quizzes are Important. These Quizzes do NOT contribute to your final mark for this module. Weekly homework sheets: Provide exam-like Questions related to the topics of the given week. You should revise the corresponding notes and related workbook chapter and the tutorial sheet solutions prior to attempting the problems from the homework sheet. Then work through these exam-like questions, write down your solutions and submit them to your tutor or lecturer. Homework and online Quizzes are optional (does not count towards your module mark) however tutors or lecturer will check your solutions and provide detailed comments on scripts. Homework does not contribute to the final mark, but it will be checked and corrected. This is the only way you can get feedback on your individual work throughout the whole semester on this module. Even though the submission of homework is optional understanding the solutions to these problems will be required for the mid- and end-term tests and the exam. The problems set in Homework Sheets are based on past exams, so it is really good preparation! |
