Multivariable Calculus Lecture 1 - Oxford Mathematics 1st Year Student Lecture
This is the first of four lectures we are showing from our 'Multivariable Calculus' 1st year course. In the lecture, which follows on from 'Introductory Calculus' which our students took in their first term, Sarah introduces the subject before going on to focus on Multiple Integrals in 2D.
You can watch many other student lectures via our main Student Lectures playlist (also check out specific student lectures playlists): • Oxford Mathematics Stu...
All first and second year lectures are followed by tutorials where students meet their tutor in pairs to go through the lecture and associated problem sheet and to talk and think more about the maths. Third and fourth year lectures are followed by classes.

not for offending anyone but this way of teaching makes students sleep or struggle to keep up copying the boards. Change rythm, ask questions to your students, emphasize some parts. This has been a constant stream of words thou clear and linear. It's no different than reading the textbook - that's exactly what I did for many classes I had in my engineering studies as it was much more effective and time and energy saving for me studying my textbooks at home than wasting hours for going to my universities, listening to hypnotic lessons not memorizing or understanding half of what I could alone at home.... except for a very few where the professors were very good at merging notions from different texts and had the capability of making things clearer or more interesting - like my professor of linear dynamic systems - or you simply couldn't pass the exams if you didn't pick notes at lessons because they didn't follow a specific textbook.

Interesting writing on sheets.
The most absurd blackboard I have ever seen, I suppose serves to remind us that SpaceTime is deformable. The lesson is excellent.

Is there a mistake at minute 30:15 in the video? It seems there is an error in the transcription of the limits of integration. It incorrectly uses a1 and a2 as the limits for x, which should actually be a1 and b1 for the correct lower and upper limits, respectively. Similarly, for y, the limits should be a2 and b2 instead of the b1 and a2 that are shown. Could you please clarify?
@jeffryborror4883
2 ай бұрын
You are correct that her specification of the rectangular domain is inconsistent with the limits on the integrals. Rather than changing the integrals, it would be clearer to write the domain as [a1,a2] x [b1,b2]
The fundamental thing is to know how to use these formulas with multiple variables and if it is possible to improve the operation in less time and less step if in the case of the lack of data the achievement of the result is variable depending on the conditions

Great lecture! One question, for example 2, why is f(x,y) = 1? Can anyone provide a clear explanation?
@amritlohia8240
2 ай бұрын
Because if you work through the definition of a double integral with f(x,y) = 1, you'll see that it just sums up the areas of all the infinitesimally-small rectangles covering the region without multiplying them by anything (since multiplying by 1 leaves a number unchanged), and so it calculates the total area of the region.
Thank you.
