The first page of this resource discusses the "short cuts" to determining the end behavior of rational functions, while at the same time referencing the limitations. Graphs of functions are given to visually support those rules. Page two is a brief five problem practice worksheet and page three is the answer key for the worksheet. At the moment I am considering this a "mini resource" and offering if free of charge. I would appreciate feedback from anyone who uses it on how to improve this re

We have given this 40 question summer assignment for many years to students who have completed our Pre-Calculus/Mathematical Analysis courses and have enrolled in Calculus for the following year. The idea is for students to review concepts taught from previous courses that will be necessary for their success in Calculus. All of the problems have been chosen with the hindsight of many years of Calculus instruction. Problems include writing equations of lines, evaluating trigonometric expressio

This bundle contains 3 files: the primary file is a applet named "Series" that requires JAVA 8. "Series" in a dynamic and interactive way to introduce students to sequences and series, especially with respect to the convergence and divergence of the series. The applet promotes an inquiry-based learning approach, allowing students to create and explore series of their own creation. Also included in the bundle is a single page "User Guide to the 'Series' Applet." The final document contains a

The "Minute 'Minders" series is designed to be a set of worksheets that can be used to review prerequisite concepts in a given class. They are meant to be used as quick warm-ups (each a single page) to refresh students' memories about concepts they are already familiar with, but in our teaching experience they may have forgotten. The Algebra Minute 'Minder has seven worksheets on the following topics: -Operations with integers -Operations with rational numbers (1) -Operations with rational num

This 9 pages of materials here contain a single page of resources on using the first derivative to determine intervals of increasing and decreasing and locating local of a function. The next 4 pages contain various activities to help students explore those concepts. These pages are followed by the answer keys for the activities.
