Applied Calculus fully embraces the "reform" being called for in
calculus teaching and learning. All key concepts are presented
following the Rule of Three: from a graphical, numerical, and
algebraic viewpoint, encouraging students to visualize, verbalize
and write. By always bringing these viewpoints to bear on each
topic, the text presents a conceptual understanding of the calculus
that is deep and flexible enough to accommodate the many diverse
business and science applications presented. The graphing
calculator is fully integrated to make these viewpoints and the
applications more accessible. Features: * Technology is fully
integrated throughout the text and is used to assist the students
to think about the geometric and numerical meaning of calculus,
without undermining the algebraic aspects. When applicable,
examples are demonstrated with graphing calculators. In almost all
cases, they represent opportunities for the instructor to have the
students reproduce these screens on their graphing calculators,
making the student an active partner in the learning process. *
Procedures and definitions evolve from the investigation of
section-opening applications. These applications are extensive,
varied, referenced, and realistic and allow topics to be taught
using an investigative, exploratory approach. * Extensive exercises
involving writing, exploration, and creativity are given to help
students gain better problem-solving skills. Meaningful
applications, drawn from a variety of fields, are given for all the
mathematics that is presented to motivate the students. Many of the
applications are referenced from the modern day journals and
articles. * "Explorations", individual or group projects, and
writing exercises present students with the opportunity to learn
through their own investigations, explore their interests, and
increase their communication skills, both inside and outside the
classroom.
