課程綱要
Course Outline
本門課程以「微積分」為核心主題，從基本概念到實際應用進行全面探討，涵蓋
了導數、積分、連鎖法則、指數和對數等重要主題。課程強調微積分在科學、工
程和商業等領域的重要性。透過深入理解導數的計算和應用，以及積分的技巧和
實際應用，學生將建立起對微積分核心概念的牢固基礎，為未來在不同領域的數
教學目的 學應用奠定基礎。
This course provides a comprehensive exploration of from fundamental concepts to
Course Objective practical applications based on calculus. It covers essential topics such as derivatives,
integrals, the chain rule, exponentials, and logarithms. Emphasizing the significance of
calculus in fields like science, engineering, and commerce, the course delves into the
calculation and application of derivatives, as well as techniques and real-world
applications of integrals.
