Math 132: Useful links

Textbook-related links

The publisher’s companion site for the Stewart textbook…

 …contains additional content, including on-line graphing tools, brief on-line tutorial on using the TI-89 and other HP calculators, and links to other calculus resources. The latter include the TEC interactive modules.

Follett’s UMass Amherst Textbook Annex web site.

UMass links

U. Mass Amherst Mathematics and Statistics Department home page.

Registrar’s web site (final exam conflict policy)

Calculator-related links

Texas Instruments TI-89 Titanium features (manufacturer’s site)

Brief on-line TI-89 tutorial; another tutorial; a list of other tutorials.

Independent TI calculator organization ticalc.org web site.

Calculus links

Need an indefinite integral evaluated? (Just the answer—no work!) Try Wolfram Research’s free site The Integrator.

How to calculate an integral symbolically for your examples, done live and step-by-step (from calc101.com). Try first the stored examples, then pay a few $$ to have your own examples done.

Accumulated change and antiderivative plotter—visualization of the FTC (from JOMA).

Applets about the meaning of integrals, series, power series, and parametric curves (from Maths online)

Applets on integrals and parametric curves (from International Education Software).

Applet on numerical integration from MIT Math 18.013A.

Calculus on the Web (COW) Internet library for learning calculus.

Metric Maths applet on sequence limits. (Click “Launch the Activity” at the very bottom to see the applet).

Visual Calculus animations on sequence limits.

Applet on linear, quadratic, and cubic Taylor approximations from MIT Math 18.013A.

Mathlet on sequences and series of functions (from JOMA).

Index of online calculus resources (from the Math Forum)

Index of online calculus resources (from the Math Forum)

There are some single-variable calculus interactive materials from the Journal of Online Mathematics and Its Applications at “MathDL”, the Mathematical Sciences Digital Library.

The Connected Curriculum Project: modules in calculus from Duke University and Montana State University (the latter developed by Frank Wattenberg, formerly of UMass). Many of these modules presume use of a “computer algebra system” such as Mathematica or Maple, but for some a graphing calculator will suffice. Lots of connections of calculus to the “real world” here.

Find another good online applet or other online resource about limits or derivatives? Let me know!

Just for “fun” (?)
