Opiskelumateriaali

Osoitetaan tarkemmin opintojakson alussa löörnissä.
Opintojakoslla käytetään löörniin kertyvää kurssimateriaalia (teoria, videot, tehtävät, tehtävien ratkaisut). Opintojaksolla on oma kaavaluettelonsa, joka jaetaan kokeiseen mukaan. Muuten opiskelussa voi hyödyntää sopivaa matemaattista kirjallisuutta ja nettiaineistoa (ks. löörni).

Yksilölliset oppimisväylät

Työviikkopohjainen oppimisväylä:

Opintiojaksolle on valikoitu 4 metsätalousinsinöörikoulutuksen kannalta oleellista osakokonaisuutta. Matemaattisten perusongelmien analysointiin ja ratkaisuun perehdytään matematiikan A perustaitojen, B geometrian, C tilastomatematiikan ja D talousmatematiikan avulla.

Opintijakson sisällöt opiskelaaan kontaktopiskeluna ja itsenäisenä opiskeluna. Opintojakson koe jakaantuu kahteen osakokeeseen (koe1 ja koe 2), joiden yhteenlaskettu opistemääärä muodostaa opinoijakson perusarvioinnin. Toteutuksen aikana laskuharjoituksista kertyy arviointiin lisäpisteitä.

Tentit ja muut määräajat

Koe 1 (A matematiikan perusteet, B Geometria)
Koe 2 (C tilastomatematiikka, D talosumatematiikka)
Koeajankohdat tarkentuvat toteutuksen alkaessa (ks.löörni).

Opiskelijan työmäärä

Kontaktiopetus (luennot, tuntitehtävät, laskuharjoitukset) 60h
Itsenäinen opiskelu (teoriaan ja tehtäviin ennakkotutustuminen, tehtävin ja laskuharjoitusten ratkominen, kokeisiin valmistautumienn) 75h
