This problem is graded for completeness and accuracy. Students need to verify each of the ten vector space axioms. Problem Solving Examinations Example: A tank initially contains 20 L of water. A solution containing 1 g/L of chemical flows into the tank at a rate of 3 L/min, and the mixture flows out at a rate of 2 L/min. Set up the initial-value problem for A(t) and then solve the initial-value problem for A(t). This problem is graded for completeness and accuracy of two parts:1. The set-up of the initial-value problem and 2. The solving of the initial-value problem. Projects Example: Read from the text and research a mathematical structure similar to a vector space called a lattice. In a report, give specific examples of 5 different types of lattices and prove the corresponding bases for each of your examples. In a summary, compare your proofs performed with lattices with the proofs for bases you performed with vector spaces and explain how they are similar and different. This report is graded on completeness, and accuracy of the proofs. The student will also be graded on their summary and their analytical comparison of the proofs in the two mathematical structures.

Repeatable No Methods of Instruction Lecture/Discussion Distance Learning Lecture: The students and instructor will engage in an interactive discussion concerning whether P3 with certain restrictions constitutes a vector space. The discussion will lead to a conclusion that prompts the instructor to introduce the writing technique necessary for students to verify that such a set is a vector space or introduce the writing technique necessary for students to verify such a set is not a vector space. Students will then get an opportunity to practice such writing techniques on other sets provided by the instructor. (Objective 3) The instructor will direct students to form small teams of 2 to 4 to perform at least two of the listed methods to find solutions to a system of equations. Instructors will list the variety of methods on the board. Instructor will facilitate and direct individual groups to complete specific methods and have students share their work at the white board with the rest of the class. (Objective 8) Distance Learning The students and instructor will engage in a discussion board concerning whether P3 with certain restrictions constitutes a vector space. The discussion will lead to a conclusion that prompts the instructor to introduce the writing technique necessary for students to verify that such a set is a vector space or introduce the writing technique necessary for students to verify such a set is not a vector space. Students will then get an opportunity to practice such writing techniques on other sets provided by the instructor. (Objective 3) The instructor will form small virtual groups of 2 to 4 to post at least two of the listed methods to find solutions to a system of equations. Instructors will list the variety of methods on the board. Instructor will facilitate and direct individual groups to complete specific methods and have students post their work for peer review. (Objective 8) Typical Out of Class Assignments Reading Assignments 1. Read in the textbook about the axioms of a vector space. Come to class prepared to discuss what it means to be a vector space and what it means not to be a vector space. 2. Read in your textbook (and research online) slope fields of the form D(y)=f(x,y) including isoclines, equilibrium solutions, and concavity. 3. Read in the textbook about the projection vector and examine how it is used to derive the formula in the Gram-Schmidt Process. Writing, Problem Solving or Performance 1. Sketch the slope field and some representative solution curves for the differential equation D(y)=y(y-1). 2. Use technology to graph the slope field and validate the algebraic calculations of isoclines, equilibrium solutions, and concavity.
