method.
8. Perform numerical differentiation and integration to a given set
of interpolation points without solving the polynomial.
9. Solve numerical integration to find an approximation for the
value of the definite integral where the function is not explicitly
defined.
10. Determine the line or the curve that best fits the given data
wherein its equation may later be used for interpolation or
extrapolation.
11. Implement different techniques in solving roots of equations,
linear algebraic equations, optimization, numerical integration
and differentiation, and lastly the curve fitting through MS Excel.
Course 1. Offline and Online Interactions (i.e. Face to face classes,
Requirements Google Classroom, Messenger, etc.)
2. Assignments
3. Seatworks
4. Quizzes
5. Midterm and Final Examination
Grading System The computation of FINAL GRADE is presented below:

MIDTERM GRADE = 60% (Class Standing) + 40% (Term Exam)

Class Standing = 70% (Quizzes) + 20% (Seatworks) + 10%
(Assignments)
FINAL TERM GRADE = 60% (Class Standing) + 40% (Term Exam)
Class Standing = 70% (Quizzes) + 20% (Seatworks) + 10%
(Assignments)

FINAL GRADE = 40% (Midterm Grade) + 60% (Final Term Grade)
