Applied Calculus

by Deborah Hughes-Hallett, Patti Frazer Lock, Andrew M. Gleason

Interactive classrooms and well-crafted problems promote student learning. Since it’s inception, the hallmark of Applied Calculus is its innovative and engaging problems. The Calculus Consortium pioneered and incorporates the approach called the “Rule of Four.” The Rule of Four, presents ideas graphically, numerically, symbolically, and verbally, thereby encouraging students with a variety of learning styles to deepen their understanding as they work through a wide variety of problem types.

Yay, I'm all done with Calculus and community college at the same time. Both great things, and also things I'm very happy to be done with.

I always thought it was hard to do maths, but this book was too clear and everything was simple.
Even though some of the chapters might be better in a different sequence but I think that it's okay as calculus has related topics in different ways.

I did not find this book to be very helpful with my Calculus class. Some of the lessons did not do very much for teaching me how to compute the answers.
