LIMITS AND DERIVATIVES PYTHON PROGRAMMING ACTIVITIES
Python Programming should be an integral part of math education, in fact the newer TI-84 graphing calculators have Python interpreters built-in! Alternately, Python programs can be entered and run from web browsers and tablet apps. This is actually two activities in a single package. They can be assigned for self-study or in teacher-led lessons. The Finding Limits activity includes the following: a simple Python program that finds the limit of an input functionTwo exercise sets with limits to

Experience
I have 18 years teaching all levels of mathematics at the high school level, and 10 years teaching all levels of mathematics at the college level. Prior to teaching I was a computer programmer in the aerospace and CAD industries; I also worked many years as a freelance web designer and web programmer.
Teaching style
In my experience, students prefer traditional instruction: examples, guided practice, independent practice. I incorporate graphing calculators as much as possible into instruction because students love handheld devices and trying things out on their own.
My own education history
B.S. in Mathematics-Computer Science, UCLA;
M.Ed UCLA;
M.A. Mathematics, UC Riverside.
Additional biographical information
My textbook "Programming Precalculus with Python" will be published by Cognella Publishing in Winter 2023. This textbook teaches both Precalculus and Python concepts completely integrated.
