To get started, a diagnostic quiz sets students on the right track toward a good grade. This tutorial is organized around the CALCULUS 3/e textbook, enclosed in the Course Advantage Edition package. Provided within is a registration code that allows FREE access to the online tutorials.
- Calculus WebQuiz. In addition to reviewing algebra & trigonometry, students also need to build skills with the calculus material. These online Calculus WebQuizzes help you work hand in hand with the Hughes-Hallett, CALCULUS 3/e text, chapter by chapter. The registration code enclosed within allows FREE access to this valuable tool as well.
The Third Edition of CALCULUS reflects the strong consensus within the mathematics community for a new balance between the contemporary ideas of the original editions of this book and ideas and topics from earlier calculus books. Building on previous work, this Third Edition has the same philosophy as earlier editions but represents a new balance of topics. CALCULUS 3/e brings together the best of both new and traditional curricula in an effort to meet the needs of even more instructors teaching calculus. The author team's extensive experience teaching from both traditional and innovative books and their expertise in developing innovative problems put them in an unique position to make this new curriculum meaningful to students going into mathematics and those going into the sciences and engineering. The authors believe the new edition will work well for those departments who are looking for a calculus book that offers a middle ground for their calculus instructors.
CALCULUS 3/e exhibits the same strengths from earlier editions including the Rule of Four, an emphasis on modeling, exposition that students can read and understand and a flexible approach to technology. The conceptual and modeling problems, praised for their creativity and variety, continue to motivate and challenge students.
