|
Critical Thinking: Students are expected to use critical thinking skills along with skills learned in this course to analyze problem situations arising in mathematics, engineering and sciences, and formulate appropriate solutions. |
|||
|
Required Writing: Problem-solving exercises on homework assignments and written tests are more appropriate. In addition, students may be required to write reports from one paragraph to several pages explaining concepts or explaining and interpreting solutions to non-routine or applied problems. |
