个人认为作为一名能考上港大的高考理科生,这门课的内容太过简单,可不上,直接上MATH1013。
但是如果为了刷GPA,且你是一个很仔细做简单题不容易错的人,也可以考虑上这门课。
我没有上过这门课所以不过多评价。
II. MATH1013 University math II
课程内容:
- Functions; graphs; inverse functions.
- Limits; continuity and differentiability.
- Mean value theorem; Taylor's theorem; implicit differentiation; L'Hopital's rule.
- Higher order derivatives; maxima and minima; graph sketching.
- Radian, calculus of trigonometric functions.
- Definite and indefinite integrals; integration by substitutions; integration by parts; integration by partial fractions.
- Complex numbers, polar form, de Moivre's formula.
- Applications: Solving simple ordinary differential equations.
- Basic matrix and vector (of orders 2 and 3) operations, determinants of 2x2 or 3x3 matrices.
这门课是选择后面很多高阶课的前置课程,所以在理科生在大一上掉这门课个人感觉还是挺不错的。
考评方式:
Assignment 10%
Exam 50%
Test 40%
Professor测评:Ching Tak Wing
这名教授是我大一遇到讲课好的老师之一,他讲课逻辑非常清晰,而且是真的为数不多的 只要跟着他的逻辑走 就可以把你从不会讲成会的大学老师。每次lecture他都会录制,一下课就会上传给我们看。整个学期他都在forum上答疑,下课后也可以抓着他讨论问题,而且他回邮件非常快。每次考试前的晚上他都会在线解同学们的燃眉之急。
Tutor测评:
上学年一学期,这门课的tutor整体质量真的很差。因为tutorial不需要记attendance,所以我为了找到一个相对好一点的tutor辗转换了三个tutorial subclass。如果你开学后发现自己的tutor教的不好也可以这样做,翘课翘掉自己的tutorial然后去其他你有空的时间段去试试。相对于lecture materials,总的来说我觉得我并没有很好地吸收tutorial上的东西,但是也不是很影响这门课的成绩。
内容测评:
这门课内容相对简单,高考理科生可以直接上无负担。最开始两章是高中学过的内容,更多地是在适应用英文学数学。然后讲了三章calculus,有些是高中学过的有些是新东西诸如积分、微积分基本定理等。最后两章是全新的ODE,matrix。因为过渡得宜且教授专业水平过硬,能够顺滑跟上,而且不需要很累心,只需要上课理解了并把课后作业写完就能很很有收获了。弱tutor在强professor面前是可以忽略的缺点。
考评方式:这门课有两个test和一个final,平时有四五个手写的Assignment和一些网上可无限作答刷正确率的quiz,属于典型的hku数学课配置。
成绩:普遍好龟,努力了能有A range,教授也会捞人。
