Program Overview


Foundation Mathematics for Engineering (by Flexible Open Learning)

Overview

Develops mathematical skills and techniques that are necessary to embark on the first year of an Engineering Programme in Higher Education.


Course Details

What you study

  • Algebraic manipulation
  • Functions, including logarithm and exponential functions
  • Solution of equations with one or more unknown involving algebraic, trigonometric, logarithmic and exponential functions
  • Right triangle trigonometry, trigonometry applied to non-right angled triangles
  • Elementary calculus using tables of standard derivatives and integrals
  • Basic techniques of differentiation and integration
  • Simple applications of derivatives and integrals

How you learn

The learning materials consist of a self-contained and comprehensive learning package.


  • Learning materials will be provided to the student in the form of a series of lessons, these include self assessment questions with solutions to aid developmental learning
  • Student support tutoring is provided by telephone, e-mail, MS Teams, and where practical and required, by visits to TUOLE where additional support on an individual basis can be given
  • Additional support will be provided via E-learning@tees course materials including tutorial materials, and links to supporting materials, will be placed in the e-learning@tees website

How you are assessed

Formative Assessment The distance learning materials include a series of self-assessment questions and answers at the end of each lesson to allow for progression of learning. Feedback in the form of email, MS Teams or telephone contact is available to the student. The formative assessments provide the students with an opportunity to receive feedback and prepare for the summative assessment.


Summative Assessment Evidence will be provided from a single component of assessment, comprising three elements, equally weighted, in the form of an in-course assessment. Each assessment comprises a set of short answer questions which are related to the sequence and content of the lessons provided within the learning materials. The work submitted will be authenticated by an end of module interview
