134- Calculus In Motion: Improving Calculus Understanding through Interactive Computer Animations

Thursday, April 18, 2013: 11:00 AM-12:00 PM
Mineral Hall F/G (Hyatt Regency )
Lead Speaker:
Audrey M Weeks


Explore interactive computer animations (Sketchpad) that bring calculus to life as the study of motion and change. When you pair animations with a reasoning–questioning teaching strategy, understanding soars because all students see it with their own eyes. Topics include limits, derivatives, integrals, related rates, volumes, and more.
