Course Description:
The course covers definition, calculation, and major uses of the derivative, as well as an introduction to integration. Topics include limits; the derivative as a limit; rules for differentiation and formulas for the derivatives of algebraic, trigonometric, and exponential/logarithmic functions. The course also discusses applications of derivatives to motion, density, optimization, linear approximations, and related rates. Topics on integration include the definition of the integral as a limit of sums, antidifferentiation, the fundamental theorem of calculus, and integration by the u-substitution and substitution by parts. The course emphasizes conceptualization, modelling, and skills. All three are of great importance.
