  • ApresentaçãoPresentation
    Quantitative Methods provides knowledge in the area of Mathematical Analysis, which is an essential tool in solving various types of problems. Mathematics is a means of communication, a formal and precise language. It is one of the essential and necessary theoretical bases of all the great systems of interpretation of reality that guarantee social intervention with responsibility and give meaning to the human condition. Mathematical knowledge is part of the cultural heritage of humanity because it has its own characteristics and procedures that have also evolved in the context of other sciences.

  • ObjectivosObjectives
    The program for this course was designed with the aim of consolidating and expanding students' mathematical knowledge. Understanding the concepts and techniques of differential calculus and preparing students with the basic fundamentals of mathematics indispensable for solving problems and mathematical models is the main objective. Introduction to the statistical tools necessary to analyze and interpret a set of data and provide students with a set of statistical techniques and methods that facilitate the analysis and interpretation of information.

  • MetodologiaMethodology
    Use of moodle where the student has access to digital sebentas that allows him to absorb the content through the virtual medium and when arriving at the classroom is already aware of the subject to be developed. The "inverted classroom" makes it possible to know the concepts before approaching them allowing to monetize the time of learning.   Use of applications (PhotoMath, Maple Calculator, Microsoft Math Solver ...) that, in real time, allow the student not only to acquire knowledge but also to support their study.   Use of the interactive whiteboard to make presentations more dynamic.   Use of platforms (such as Zoom) to allow students who cannot be in person not to miss the possibility of integrating the class.
