TOCB1101 — Đại số
Course description
This course is designed to equip learners with the knowledge and skills in linear algebra to solve practical, computational, and mathematical problems. It covers basic concepts and methods of linear algebra, with emphasis on vector spaces, basis, transformations, and effective calculation tools for systems of linear equations, matrices, and determinants. The course aims to train thinking ability, calculation skills, and improve the ability to apply mathematical knowledge to analyze and research problems in economics, business, and engineering. The course also equips learners with the necessary knowledge, skills, and competencies to study related subjects in the training program, and continue to higher education.
The content of the course consists of 6 chapters:
Chapter 1. Systems of Linear Equation
Chapter 2. Matrix algebra
Chapter 3. Determinants and diagonalization
Chapter 4. Vector spaces
Chapter 5. Linear transformations
Chapter 6. Change of basis
Course requirements
Requirements for Final Examination
Attendance score must be at least 5 (according to University regulations).
See Appendix 2, Rubric 1 for attendance evaluation.
Requirements for Class Attendance
Students are responsible for attending all classes. In case of absence from school due to force majeure reasons, sufficient and reasonable proof must be provided. For each absence, 1 point will be deducted 1 point. Students who miss any classes more than 3 times, with or without reason, will be considered as failing to complete the course and have to re-register.
Students will be awarded points for constructive comments. These points are added to attendance points and group assignments (if any).
Individuals/groups who do not submit the group work will receive a score of 0 (zero). Late submissions will be deducted for each day of late submission.
Requirements for In-class Behaviour
The course is conducted on the principle of respecting learners and lecturers. Any behaviour that affects the teaching and learning process is strictly prohibited.
Students must come to class on time. Students who are late more than 10 minutes after class starts will not be allowed to attend the class. Do not make noise and affect others during the learning process.
Laptops and tablets are only used for the purpose of taking notes for and calculating for lectures and exercises, absolutely forbidden to use for other purposes
