    Recommended or required reading

    All material, theory and exercises, can be found in TuniMoodle. If necessary, a student can use math books he/she has used before and the Internet to search more information about the topics. A student can borrow books in TAMK library. The solutions for the some homework will be published in TuniMoodle after every deadline.

    Planned learning activities and teaching methods

    Lessons, exercises, self-study, videos, homework, exam.
    A student solves exercises and saves them in TuniMoodle by given dead-lines. Before each dead-line a student has a chance to ask help in "helpdesk"-meetings.

    Assessment methods and criteria

    The final grade is based on the exam and the homework. A homework package is given weekly (approximately 8 packages). One point is given for every submitted homework package in Moodle. Homework packages are not accepted by email. The maximum points for the test is 42 points. The homework and the test together give the maximum of 50 points. The grade is based on the following table

    12,5 points -> grade 1
    20 points -> grade 2
    27,5 points -> grade 3
    35 points -> grade 4
    42,5 points -> grade 5
