First-Order Differential Equations Course Description:
The Mathematics and Statistics department of The Open University offers the free OpenCourseWare, 'First-Order Differential Equations.' This is the first in a series of two courses on differential equations. Students should have experience with basic calculus and a working knowledge of the rules for differentiation and integration prior to attempting this course. When finished with this course students will be able to understand and define the terminology associated with differential equations and their solutions. In addition, students will understand the use of Euler's method. Other course topics include integration, variable separation and factoring methods. Students should allow 16 hours to complete this undergraduate-level course.
Course materials include a downloadable course workbook, an online discussion forum and a learning journal. To learn more, visit the first-order differential equations course page.
