Course Characteristics

Key concepts of the class

• Differentiation
• Integration
• Series

What is the purpose of this course?

This calculus course covers differentiation and integration of functions of one variable, with applications. The basic objective of Calculus is to relate small-scale (differential) quantities to large-scale (integrated) quantities. This is accomplished by means of the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus. Should be understanding of the integral as a cumulative sum, of the derivative as a rate of change, and of the inverse relationship between integration and differentiation.

This calculus course will provide an opportunity for participants to:

• understand key principles involved in differentiation and integration of functions
• solve problems that connect small-scale (differential) quantities to large-scale (integrated) quantities
• become familiar with the fundamental theorems of Calculus
• get hands-on experience with the integral and derivative applications and of the inverse relationship between integration and differentiation.
