Syllabus

WEEK 1
Concebimos un movimiento diferente
Hablaremos del Modelo Cúbico construido a partir del Modelo Cuadrático. Retomaremos la situación real de movimiento en línea recta creando un movimiento en el que no hay cambio de sentido. Transitaremos al contexto real de llenado de tanques para dar significado a la función cúbica y a su derivada.

WEEK 2
Ecuaciones y funciones cúbicas
Retomaremos el contexto real del movimiento en línea recta para activar procesos algebraicos relacionados con la interpretación gráfica del movimiento. Consideraremos diferentes casos de ecuaciones cúbicas en las que podremos calcular sus soluciones con procedimientos algebraicos sencillos.

WEEK 3
La derivada cuadrática y la función cúbica
Hablaremos del contexto de llenado de tanques para apreciar las diferentes características gráficas que puede tener una función cúbica. Haremos énfasis en la obtención de la derivada y la antiderivada como procesos algebraicos. Utilizaremos la derivada para identificar máximos, mínimos y puntos de inflexión.

WEEK 4
Aplicaciones con cúbicas
Hablaremos de la aplicación conocida como la optimización de funciones considerando el Modelo Cúbico. Con ayuda de la tecnología, interpretaremos el efecto gráfico que se refleja al introducir un parámetro en la representación algebraica de ciertas funciones cúbicas.

Introduction à la théorie de Galois (Coursera) Coursera
École normale supérieure

Introduction à la théorie de Galois (Coursera)

Le cours expose la théorie de Galois, du classique critère de non-résolubilité des équations polynomiales aux méthodes plus avancées de calcul de groupes de Galois par réduction modulo un nombre premier. Le thème général de cette théorie est l'étude des racines d'un polynôme et concerne en particulier la possibilité de les exprimer à partir des coefficients de ce polynôme. Evariste Galois considère les symétries de ces racines et associe ainsi à ce polynôme un groupe de permutations de ses racines, que l'on appelle maintenant son groupe de Galois.

Initiation à la théorie des distributions (Coursera)

Une fonction discontinue peut-elle être solution d'une équation différentielle? Comment définir rigoureusement la masse de Dirac (une "fonction" d'intégrale un, nulle partout sauf en un point) et ses dérivées? Peut-on définir une notion de "dérivée d'ordre fractionnaire"? Cette initiation aux distributions répond à ces questions - et à bien d'autres.

Matrix Algebra for Engineers (Coursera)

This course is all about matrices, and concisely covers the linear algebra that an engineer should know. The mathematics in this course is presented at the level of an advanced high school student, but typically students should take this course after completing a university-level single variable calculus course. There are no derivatives or integrals in this course, but students are expected to have attained a sufficient level of mathematical maturity. Nevertheless, anyone who wants to learn the basics of matrix algebra is welcome to join.

Discrete Mathematics (Coursera)

Discrete mathematics forms the mathematical foundation of computer and information science. It is also a fascinating subject in itself. Learners will become familiar with a broad range of mathematical objects like sets, functions, relations, graphs, that are omnipresent in computer science. Perhaps more importantly, they will reach a certain level of mathematical maturity - being able to understand formal statements and their proofs; coming up with rigorous proofs themselves; and coming up with interesting results.
