Support for long-term classroom planning and professional development. Information covering important topics for today's educators and parents. This textbook, designed to be used in a calculus course, requires the use of a graphing calculator or computer graphing software in its application of a computer visualization based approach to the subject matter while integrating the use of numerical, graphical, and algebraic techniques. The philosophy undergirding the text is that the use of technology can reduce the amount of time that students spend on paper and pencil methods, thus increasing the amount of time they will spend on concepts, problem solving and applications. Featured in the text are explorations which provide students with an opportunity to experiment mathematically using graphical, numerical, and or algebraic techniques.
Problem solving is developed through practical applications and situations.
Real world applications.
