Systematic Reasoning and Logical Thinking for Computer Science
course price icon
A partir de 35.12 $ /h
arrow icon
You will learn Systematic Reasoning & Logical Thinking which is a requirement for entering Computer Science program in many universities.
The book “Delftse Foundations of Computation” especially its second chapter will be the main source of our lesson, but other more in-depth books will be also covered if you want to improve even further on logical thinking.
The topics in our lesson include:
• Propositional Logic: Logical operators; Precedence rules; Logical equivalence; Implications in English; Exclusive or; Universal operators; Classifying propositions
• Boolean Algebra: Substitution laws
• Logic Circuits: Logic gates; Combining gates to create circuits; From circuits to propositions; Disjunctive Normal Form; Binary addition.
• Predicate Logic: Predicates; Quantifiers; Tarski’s world and formal structures;
• Deduction: Valid arguments and proofs; Proofs in predicate logic

Acerca de mí
I am currently a postdoctoral researcher at Delft University of Technology

I like sharing my knowledge with others. I believe that teaching makes the knowledge I have acquired as a researcher much more valuable. In my idea, successful teachers have several qualities including knowledge, enthusiasm, and student-based teaching methods.

I hold a PhD in Mechanical Engineering and currently, I am working as a post-doctoral researcher in the Aerospace Engineering Faculty at TU Delft (Delft University of Technology).

I have extensive experience in teaching various Mechanical design packages, including LS-DYNA, ANSYS, APDL programming, ABAQUS, MATLAB, SolidWorks, Cura, and Symbolic MATLAB.

Some of the finite element modeling and numerical simulations I have worked on include:
- Multiscale finite element modeling for fatigue crack propagation in porous materials.
- Analysis of multiple-layer sandwich structures' resistance to bird-strike impact [Read paper].
- Investigation of debonding propagation in aluminum and glass/epoxy composite joints under fatigue loading using Fracture Mechanics principles.
- Computational prediction of the fatigue behavior of additively manufactured porous metallic biomaterials.
- Study of the effect of material type, stacking sequence, and impact location on pedestrian head injury in collisions.

If you have any additional questions before starting the class, please don't hesitate to ask me. I am here to help! :)

I hold a PhD in Mechanical Engineering and currently work as a post-doctoral researcher in the Aerospace Engineering Faculty at TU Delft (Delft University of Technology).
Key topics that I teach for this course include:
• Calculus: Differentiation & integration, Multivariable calculus
• Linear Algebra: Matrices, vectors, systems of equations, Eigenvalues and eigenvectors
• Differential Equations: First- and second-order ODEs, Laplace transforms
• Complex Numbers: Polar form, Euler’s formula
• Vector Calculus: Gradient, divergence, curl, Line and surface integrals
• Series & Transforms: Taylor series, Fourier series

I understand that not all teachers excel in teaching Engineering and Mathematics courses and explaining their importance to students. Courses with strong mathematical backgrounds may become boring for students who lack a solid mathematical basis. To address this, I take a student-centered approach, starting from the basics to actively engage all students, including those with weaker mathematical backgrounds. I also provide practical examples to demonstrate the real-world significance of what they are learning, inspiring and fostering their interest in the subject matter.

Many students today use AI tools like ChatGPT, but often in an unsafe or improvised way. Legitimate questions arise: Is it allowed? How can mistakes be avoided? How can AI be used without losing control of one's own thinking?

This course isn't about shortcuts or "machine-done work." It focuses on understanding AI as a tool and learning to use it consciously and responsibly. We work with concrete examples from the university setting and show how AI can support learning without compromising academic integrity.

One of the course's central themes is AI as a research tool. We'll explore how to define topics, formulate effective research questions, and structure a project from the outset. AI can help gain an overview and organize ideas, but we'll also clearly analyze its limitations and the need for critical self-reflection.

From there, we move on to academic writing. From developing outlines and arguments to improving style and clarity, AI can be a valuable tool. We demonstrate how to work with drafts, detect inconsistencies, and avoid common errors that often cause problems in academia.

Another section is dedicated to learning with AI. Explaining complex texts, clarifying concepts, reviewing content, and checking one's own understanding are especially valuable uses if the right questions are asked. The goal is to use AI actively, not passively.

Finally, we use AI as an intellectual sparring partner. Not as a substitute for our own thinking, but as an interlocutor that helps to compare arguments, raise objections, and explore other perspectives. This is where AI's greatest real value often lies: thinking better, not thinking less.

The course is designed for students of any discipline. No prior knowledge is required. The goal is to gain confidence in using AI and learn how to integrate it productively and responsibly into university studies.
