Lesson Plan: Power Series and Radius of Convergence Mathematics
This lesson plan includes the objectives, prerequisites, and exclusions of the lesson teaching students how to define a power series and find the radius of convergence of the power series.
Objectives
Students will be able to
- recognize power series,
- use various tests of convergence to calculate radii of convergence of power series.
Prerequisites
Students should already be familiar with
- the definition of a series,
- the concepts of convergence and divergence for series,
- the alternating series test,
- the ratio test.
Exclusions
Students will not cover
- operations on power series.
