Calculus

The topics for this course include Limits, Derivatives, and Integrals (both Definite and Indefinite). We will explore tools and techniques for applying these concepts, such as the Derivatives of Products and Quotients, and the Chain Rule. We will also form connections with the physical world, both for understanding and also for application. We'll use computers and apps where appropriate. We will be using the material in the openstax.org textbook. "Calculus Volume 1"; this will be supplemented with material from Calculus Made Easy: Expanded and Modernized (Full Color)" which is an optional textbook.
