This course continues on from MATH1115, providing an in-depth development of fundamental concepts of calculus and linear algebra, with a particular emphasis on the underlying foundations of mathematics. The use and understanding of proof and abstract ideas, will allow students to develop analytical skills which will form a base for further study in fundamental mathematics as well as providing a foundation for a wide range of quantitative areas such as computer science, engineering, economics, statistics and physics. 

Topics to be covered include:

Analysis - introduction to metric spaces in the context of the calculus of functions of several variables; double integrals, partial derivatives, gradients and directional derivatives, extreme values; vector functions, curves and parametrizations; infinite series, convergence tests, power series, Taylor series;

Algebra –  theory and application of Euclidean vector spaces, vector spaces, linear independence, bases and dimension, eigenvalues and eigenvectors, orthogonality and least squares.

Note: This is an Honours Pathway Course. It involves extra material and emphasizes the use and understanding of proof and abstract ideas to a deeper conceptual level than MATH1014.

Examination Material or equipment

Information about examination material will be made available through the Examinations timetable.

Required Resources

• Linear Algebra Done Right (3rd Edition) by Sheldon Axler. Also available as an eBook from Springer.
• Essential Calculus (2nd Edition) by James Stewart. Also available as an eBook from Cengage.

Staff Feedback

Students will be given feedback in the following forms in this course:

• Automatic grading of the online quizzes.
• Written comments on assignments.
• Verbal comments on group work in workshops.
• Lecturers and demonstrators may also give feedback to the whole class, to groups, to individuals, to focus groups.

Student Feedback

ANU is committed to the demonstration of educational excellence and regularly seeks feedback from students. Students are encouraged to offer feedback directly to their Course Convener or through their College and Course representatives (if applicable). The feedback given in these surveys is anonymous and provides the Colleges, University Education Committee and Academic Board with opportunities to recognise excellent teaching, and opportunities for improvement. The Surveys and Evaluation website provides more information on student surveys at ANU and reports on the feedback provided on ANU courses.

Other Information

Please note that where there are multiple assessment tasks of the same type, e.g. weekly quizzes, a date range is used in the Assessment Summary. The first date is the approximate due date of the first task, the return date is the approximate return date for the final task. Further information is provided in the assessment section of the class summary, and details are provided on the course wattle site.

Regarding collaboration when attempting assignments, you are encouraged to discuss the course material with your classmates as an aid to learning. However, every student is responsible for writing up their own solutions: although you may work with others to understand the ingredients in a correct solution, producing the written solutions should be an individual effort. If you work with other students, please acknowledge this collaboration on the first page of your assignment. For example, write, “I discussed Problem 1 with Jane Doe and Problems 3 and 4 with John Doe.” When completing an assignment, you should consult only the textbooks, notes, lecturers, demonstrators, and classmates, as using other sources often compromises the learning goals of the assignment. However, if you use any non-human resources (e.g., Wikipedia, other texts, online resources) besides the course textbooks and notes, you should cite these similarly.

Policies

ANU has educational policies, procedures and guidelines, which are designed to ensure that staff and students are aware of the University’s academic standards, and implement them. Students are expected to have read the Academic Misconduct Rule before the commencement of their course. Other key policies and guidelines include:

• Student Assessment (Coursework) Policy and Procedure
• Special Assessment Consideration Policy and General Information
• Student Surveys and Evaluations
• Deferred Examinations
• Student Complaint Resolution Policy and Procedure

Assessment Requirements

The ANU is using Turnitin to enhance student citation and referencing techniques, and to assess assignment submissions as a component of the University's approach to managing Academic Integrity. For additional information regarding Turnitin please visit the ANU Online website Students may choose not to submit assessment items through Turnitin. In this instance you will be required to submit, alongside the assessment item itself, hard copies of all references included in the assessment item.

Moderation of Assessment

Marks that are allocated during Semester are to be considered provisional until formalised by the College examiners meeting at the end of each Semester. If appropriate, some moderation of marks might be applied prior to final results being released.

Assessment Task 1

Weekly Assignments

Weekly Assignments which involve both an online quiz component (using the WebAssign system) and a written component (submitted online via PDF upload to Wattle) will be due from Week 2 onwards. A student’s worst Assignment score will be discounted, and the average of their remaining Assignment scores will constitute 30% of their overall grade for MATH1116. This is an advanced stream course, so most of your written work will be formal proofs. Writing clear, concise, and compelling arguments is a skill that takes time to master, and there are a variety of resources posted on Wattle to help you. The proofs in the textbook and the posted solutions also provide excellent examples to study. Language is a mathematician’s primary tool; we don’t generally get to run experiments or do fieldwork, so in the absence of data to support our hypotheses, our arguments need to be sufficiently convincing.

The date range for this task indicates the approximate due date for the first assignment, and the approximate return date for the last assignment. It is intended that the marked assignments will be returned within 14 days after submission. Further details can be found on the course Wattle site.

Assessment Task 2

Mid-semester Examination

A mid-semester examination is included in the assessment. The examination is likely to be held in Week 6 or Week 7 (the date specified for this task is merely the first day of Week 6: the exam will probably be on a different day). Details will be made available on the examinations timetable website.

Assessment Task 3

End of Semester Examination

An end of semester examination is included in the assessment. Students are required to satisfy a hurdle requirement for both the linear algebra and analysis parts of the course. Specific details about the hurdle requirements are given via Wattle. The examination will be held during the university's official examination period for the semester (the date specified for this task is merely the first day of the exam period: the exam will probably be on a different day). Details will be made available on the examinations timetable website.

Academic Integrity

Academic integrity is a core part of our culture as a community of scholars. At its heart, academic integrity is about behaving ethically. This means that all members of the community commit to honest and responsible scholarly practice and to upholding these values with respect and fairness. The Australian National University commits to embedding the values of academic integrity in our teaching and learning. We ensure that all members of our community understand how to engage in academic work in ways that are consistent with, and actively support academic integrity. The ANU expects staff and students to uphold high standards of academic integrity and act ethically and honestly, to ensure the quality and value of the qualification that you will graduate with. The University has policies and procedures in place to promote academic integrity and manage academic misconduct. Visit the following Academic honesty & plagiarism website for more information about academic integrity and what the ANU considers academic misconduct. The ANU offers a number of services to assist students with their assignments, examinations, and other learning activities. The Academic Skills and Learning Centre offers a number of workshops and seminars that you may find useful for your studies.
