Objectives
This course aims to:
1) Consolidate
students’ knowledge and basic techniques of real analysis to solve practical problems;
2) Develop students’ skills to handle concepts;
3) Develop student’s independent and analytical reasoning;
4) Develop students’ skills to apply mathematical concepts to the resolution of practical problems;
5) Develop students’ skills to present their reasoning and solutions in a clear and accurate way; Students should be capable of identifying techniques of differential calculation, and should also be capable of correctly applying those techniques. CDIO Syllabus: 1.1, 1.2, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4, 3.2

Teaching methods and learning activities
Theoretical classes:
These classes are the core of the course. Students are strongly encouraged to follow and participate on all these classes in order to ensure the necessary coordination and coherence among theoric, practise and individual study.
On theoretical classes it is made the motivation and presentation of the course subjects. Presentation of theoretical concepts, giving special emphasis to geometric interpretations and to their
practical application. The demonstration of theoretical concepts is made, as long as it helps the understanding. Ilustration of the concepts with
exercise resolution is also .
Theoretic-practical classes:
A selection of problems will be selected for each class. The students should try to solve them before the class. At the beginning of the class the students should present proof of such work. In the class those problems will be discussed and, if need, solve. The Professor complete the class with the discussion and solution of other problems.
The student must complement his study using the other exercises from the Course Exercise Collection, studying the sillabus and/or other suggested literature.
Tutorial support for students during academic period:
Scheduled time will be appointed by each professor.

Eligibility for exams
To obtain "frequency" in the course the student can not exceed the absence limit of practical classes (25% of the planned classes) and they should present the written work in 50% of TP classes. If the latter is not achieved, the student will loose "frequency" even though he/she does not exceed the number of absences at TPs
Dismissed from "frequency":
1) students with an official particular status (TE, ...)
2) studentswho has "frequency" in previous years and are NOT registered in a TP class.
Calculation formula of final grade
To have a final classification, the student must have "frequency" in the course or be dismissed from such frequency.
The final classification will be obtained out of
T1+T2+T3
or
"Exame de recurso"
The dates and rooms for the Tests will be defined by the Administration.
Grades:
T1: from 0 to 4
T2: from 0 to 7
T3: from 0 to 9
Exame de recurso: from 0 to 20.
A missing test corresponds to a 0 grade. There will be no second changes to take any of the tests.
Examinations or Special Assignments
Weekly written resolution of proposed problems to be presented at the beginning of each TP class except the first one.
Special assessment (TE, DA, ...)
Students with special status do not need to attend the TP classes. They may choose to go to the 3 tests or to the final exam.
Classification improvement
Final exam (época de recurso)
