 Calculus CD Series7 CDs PC/Mac Compatible(Single CDs $30.00/each. See below for purchasing individually.) |
This self-paced program features over 25 hours of video instruction with a login feature that returns students to their place in the lesson. The series contains 56 video segments covering the material in a standard college freshman year calculus course, and suitable for science and engineering majors. Topics covered include limits, continuity, differentiation, applications of differential calculus to graphing and optimizing functions, transcendental functions and their derivatives, integral calculus and applications to areas and volumes, L'Hôpital's Rule, sequences and series, elementary vector algebra with dot products and cross-products. The series will gradually guide students through mastering Calculus.
The first 32 segments can also be used to supplement the typical one-semester elementary or basic calculus course, suitable for business majors and students of the liberal arts.
