Modeling the spread of ebola using calculus (original and key)

Created by
Kevin Fraker
This project has 4 pages. page 1 gives data on the cases/deaths due to ebola. Students are asked to model both and find an appropriate function. [table to graph/function] page 2 asks students to analyze the rate of change of the cases/deaths and find an appropriate derivative function. [approximate rate of change using slope in table, make graph/function] page 3 asks students to consider an equation for the growth and use derivative analysis (increasing/decreasing concavity extremes) to answer

Hoff Math
Looking for an Integration Project for your Calculus class? This Vase Project (with an editable rubric) is the perfect fit for you. Students work with a partner to use Integral Calculus to calculate the volume of a vase. Students will record the dimensions of a vase as ordered pairs, use regression to find the curve of best fit, use calculus to approximate the volume of the vase, measure the actual volume of the vase, calculate the percent error, and write a report with their findings Students s

AP Calculus Optimization Discovery Project with M&Ms!

Optimization is a tricky topic in calculus. This one-day activity allows students to discover how calculus can help them. Each student (or small group) starts with an index card, which will be cut and folded up to form a box. First they calculate what would happen if the box is made various ways, and see that the volume changes depending on the size of the cuts. Next students develop an equation and apply calculus to determine how to create a box with maximum volume - so that they can fill it u

Calculus Derivatives Project: The Calculus Coaster

Created by
Tyler Kissner
A project that combines the concepts of continuity and differentiation and applies it to a real world situation. The students must first use both continuity and differentiation to solve for multiple coefficients. They then use the coefficients they have solved for and their knowledge of derivatives to answer questions about the situation. Designed for an AP or Advanced Calculus 1 class.

Differentiation Rules Project Calculus for Sum Difference Product Quotient Chain

Are you looking for a quick Calculus project to see if your students understand the rules for derivatives? This project consists of 10 questions where students create and solve problems using the given differentiation rules. There is also a bonus question to use product, quotient and chain rule all at once. Additionally there is a research page relating to why there are different rules and finding the proof of one of the rules. I use this project to be sure they know all of the rules and th
Preview of Banana Project:  Finding the Centroid of a Uniform Density Object

Banana Project: Finding the Centroid of a Uniform Density Object

In this Calculus 2/Calculus BC project, students use the formulas from class to actually calculate the centroid (balancing point) of a uniform density object. Students first trace a banana on graph paper, then find actual regression lines, the calculate the centroid. Trial and error will lead students to correcting mistakes and a deeper understanding of limits of integration, regression lines, and the formulas for area between two curves and the x and y coordinates of a centroid.
