Beschreibung
The role of technology and using specialized software in the educational process is growing in recent times. Many resources are available both commercial and academic, targeting a wide variety of audiences. In this book we have developed applications that complement the usual topics covered in calculus, such as functions, limits of functions, differentiation, integration, and graphing functions in 2D and 3D. The animations were designed by Maple Soft as an interactive book viewer. It allows the user to read content and play animated illustrations which aids in understanding the mathematical concepts. The animated graphics are simple accessible and can be customized by a user with little programming background. Mathematics is the foundation of many core concepts in science and engineering. A successful career in science and engineering is impossible without a solid mathematical base. However, mathematics are always considered a hard subject because concepts in calculus, and multivariate calculus are difficult to explain to students on blackboard or on paper. Fortunately, todays software allows us to bridge this gap and help students visualize animations and learn much easier.
