Book Description

This survey focuses on the main trends in the field of calculus education. Despite their variety, the findings reveal a cornerstone issue that is strongly linked to the formalism of calculus concepts and to the difficulties it generates in the learning and teaching process.

• Problem Solving in Mathematics Education (Peter Liljedahl, et al.)

  Review the relevance of heuristics in problem-solving approaches in Mathematics Education, what type of heuristics helps learners devise and practice creative solutions; the importance that learners formulate and pursue their own problems.

• Exercises and Problems in Calculus (John M. Erdman)

  Ideal for self-instruction as well as for classroom use, this text helps students improve their understanding and problem-solving skills in analysis, analytic geometry, and higher algebra.

• Calculus (Gilbert Strang)

  This highly regarded calculus textbook is ideal as for self-study. Examples of apps of calculus to physics, engineering and economics are included, as well as many practice questions and illustrative diagrams to assist the reader's grasp of the material.

• Calculus: Theory and Applications (Kenneth Kuttler)

  This is a book on single variable calculus including most of the important applications of calculus. It also includes proofs of all theorems presented, either in the text itself, or in an appendix. It also contains an introduction to vectors and vector products.

• Advanced Calculus (Lynn H. Loomis, et al)

  Problem solving and mathematical modeling are introduced early and reinforced throughout, providing students with a solid foundation in the principles of mathematical thinking.

• Active Calculus (Matt Boelkins)

  Rather than detailed explanations and worked out examples, this book uses activities intended to be done by the students in order to present the standard concepts and computational techniques of calculus.

• Calculus (WikiBooks)

  This wikibook aims to be a high quality calculus textbook through which users can master the discipline. Standard topics such as limits, differentiation and integration are covered, as well as several others.

• Calculus Made Easy (Silvanus P. Thompson)

  This book is a popular math book to help modern readers of all levels understand the subject on calculus through simple way and explanation. It's not just theory-based but contains exercises and answers so you can practice the understanding for each chapter.

• Elementary Calculus (Michael Corral)

  This textbook covers calculus of a single variable, is designed for students who have completed courses in high-school algebra, geometry, and trigonometry. Though designed for college students, it could also be used in high schools.

• Precalculus: An Investigation of Functions (David Lippman, et al)

  Comprehensive and evenly paced, this book provides complete coverage of the function concept, and integrates a significant amount of graphing calculator material to help students develop insight into mathematical ideas.

• Applied Analysis (John K. Hunter, et al)

  This book provides an introduction to those parts of analysis that are most useful in applications for graduate students. The material is selected for use in applied problems, and is presented clearly and simply but without sacrificing mathematical rigor.

• Introduction to Mathematical Analysis (Beatriz Lafferriere, et al)

  The goal of this book is to provide students with a strong foundation in mathematical analysis. Such a foundation is crucial for future study of deeper topics of analysis. It will be reinforced through rigorous proofs.

• Elementary Calculus: An Infinitesimal Approach (H. Jerome Keisler)

  This first-year calculus book is centered around the use of infinitesimals. It contains all the ordinary calculus topics, including the basic concepts of the derivative, continuity, and the integral, plus traditional limit concepts and approximation problems.
