The software includes a complete first year course in calculus with eleven chapters, tutorial material, over 300 problems, and interactive animations that allow users to experiment with basic concepts of calculus. Users can turn the pages forward or backward, mark their place and return later, and look up chapters and topics using a table of contents and an index. Unlike a book, the software is interactive. In the tutorial sections, students can click on italicized terms to get definitions or examples. Animations in the program show motion and change.
Students can experiment with different possibilities and discover relationships.
In the problems, students receive hints and feedback as to whether an answer is right or wrong. The program also provides help in the form of references, hints, or solutions, and an option to print pages exactly as they appear on the screen. ENC does NOT distribute this resource.
