Bryan in the Hak5 IRC was having trouble with some math stuff. I corrected his work, but I'm unsure of myself at this point since my Calculus is pretty rusty right now.

"Calculus: The Musical" uses catchy tunes and story development to present calculus in a historical context and highlight its concepts.

Two of the teachers at Beamish Board School in the colliery village at Beamish Museum apply all of their combined wisdom into solving the problem on the slate. Of course they will get it right because, in those days, teachers were always right!!

What is Calculus The word calculus comes from rock and also means a stone formed in a body. People in ancient times did arithmetic with piles of stones, so a particular method of computation in mathematics came to be known as calculus.Arithmetic and geometry are the two branches of mathematics originating in ancient times. Mathematicians attempted to do algebra in those days but lacked the language of algebra, namely the symbols we take for granted such as +, -, X, ÷ and =. Much of the world, including Europe, also lacked an efficient numbering system such as that developed in the Hindu and Arabic cultures. (Try long division, for example, using Roman numerals.) Algebra as a branch of mathematics can be said to date to around 825 A.D. when a Persian, al-Khwarizmi, wrote the earliest known algebra text. (The word "algebra" comes from a Persian word in the title, al'jabr which means "to restore". The English term for a systematic mathematical method, algorithm, was derived from al-Khwarizmi's name by way of a Latin translation.)

At Bates, we know that we must cultivate future scientists from a wide range of backgrounds in order to flourish in a diverse and complex world in which science and technology play a pivotal role.

 

The Bates Summer Scholars Program is an accelerated introduction to the sciences and math at Bates College that aims to recruit and retain students from many backgrounds in these fields.

 

The Summer Scholars Program seeks to build a community of science scholars from among a diverse group of incoming first-years, especially first-generation college students, students from groups traditionally underrepresented in the sciences, and students from rural Maine high schools.

  

Meredith Greer is an associate professor of mathematics and she is the chair of the Department of Mathematics. She teaches Calculus, Math across the Sciences, and Advanced Topics in Biomathematics. Meredith also teaches a first-year seminar on using math modeling to combat zombies (yes, zombies!) and a Short Term course on the mathematics of roller coasters that includes field trips to some wild rides.

You would never guess that the most advanced math class in the school would be composed of board-doodling children at heart.

Once upon a time, I was a math teacher for Ateneo de Manila University.

In light of the approaching AP Calculus BC exam, I couldn't resist posting this.

ok, i'm done, you guys close up.
