My students are using Geogebra , Wolfram|Alpha , and Excel every week in Calculus; LaTeX in my proof-oriented classes; Mathematica in my linear algebra and Calculus 3 classes; and so on. This is mostly calculus, linear algebra, and differential equations. Instead, bring it in and teach students how to use it well.

Educational Benefit: This activity encourages observational skills and offers a hands-on introduction to plant biology and the life cycle. Educational Benefit: This experiment helps students understand the Earth’s rotation, the changing angle of sunlight during the day, and the basics of astronomy.

It includes topics such as chemistry, biology, physics, astronomy, and geology. Usually specializing in specific fields such as biology, physics, or chemistry , engineers plan and design items kids encounter every day. Let’s look at the main branches: Science in STEM. Engineering in STEM.

So did that mean we were “finished” with calculus? Somewhere along the way we built out discrete calculus , asymptotic expansions and integral transforms. And in Version 14 there are significant advances around calculus. Another advance has to do with expanding the range of “pre-packaged” calculus operations.

He’s writing a paper, he says, basically to clarify the Second Law, (or, as he calls it, “the second fundamental theorem”—rather confidently asserting that he will “prove this theorem”): Part of the issue he’s trying to address is how the calculus is done: The partial derivative symbol ∂ had been introduced in the late 1700s.

Needless to say, you can do this computationally—though the “calculus” of what’s been defined so far in Unicode is fairly bizarre: &#10005. If one’s doing something like astronomy, this kind of “physical” date computation is probably what one wants. Transforming college calculus was one of the early achievements of Mathematica.
