- Tyler M. shared a link to a bunch of calculus-related videos he likes:
3Blue1Brown's calculus related videos
I might mention another set of videos, Gil Strang's "Highlights of Calculus" which are very powerful.
There's lots of good stuff out there, and if you have any you'd like to share, let me know!
- I'm assigning a pair of IMath exercises for
you to undertake.
How is the IMath going?
- I had asked you to come prepared to use Desmos in class
today (or something similar, so that you can do some
graphing); a laptop or tablet.
Presumably you're on such a device now!:) So join along if you can.....
Anything you'd like to bring to our attention?
I'm always hoping that I'll walk in and there will be some questions on our "Question board"...:)
- I'm going to have you spend about 20 minutes on your
worksheet from last time.
Maybe you can use Desmos for that first one: can you modify the Desmos example we used to investigate that somewhat ugly function last time?
Regroup; how much progress have you made? How much more can you make? Then we'll chat about those, before moving back to a few other things.
- Your homework included carrying out the following two
exercises: Section 1.1, #8; Section 1.2, #7
We'll start with a short discussion of those.
- Section 1.1, #8 (no freedom...)
- Section 1.2, #7 (freedom!)
- For today, as a preview, you were to "Explore" two of the
"GeoGebra" examples mentioned in this section:
Let's take a look at those. - Once we're done with that, it will probably be about time for a quiz...
