Calculus

The course, ContentCalculus, focuses on teaching Calculus AB, preparing students for the AP exam or a college-level calculus course. It explores two fundamental questions: "How is it changing right now?" and "How much has accumulated?" Through real-world applications, students learn to determine instantaneous rates of change (derivatives) and total accumulations (integrals). To succeed, students should have a solid foundation in algebra, geometry, and trigonometry. The course emphasizes Socratic-style discussions, problem-solving, and proof development, encouraging deep conceptual understanding.

The course follows a semi-independent study approach, with regular assignments and assessments. Students are expected to commit to diligent work, ask questions, and strive for mastery. Adequate preparation involves completing a comparable pre-calculus course and demonstrating commitment to persistent learning and communication.
