Distance Students:  For each assignment see the corresponding video lectures on your Chapter CD, as indicated by the section number on the link.  Note that you should have completed the Orientation as indicated in the early emails you received from the instructor.  Be sure to check your VCCS email account regularly.


Assignments 0-5:  Communication, Exponential and Logarithmic Functions

Assignment 0

At this page you should be able to easily locate the following Open Qa's:

The open qa's for Assignments 11-12 cover the rules of differentiation.

The open qa's for Assignments 13-15 introduce applications of integration, tangent lines and the differential.

The open qa for Assignment 16 addresses implicit differentiation. 

The open qa's for Assignments 1-10 introduce you in a unified way to the concepts of differentiation and integration, beginning with the concept of rate of change.  The open qa's for Assignment 10 is fairly challenging and introduces the central ideas of integration in the context of finding present and future values of an investment.

Most second-semester calculus students need this refresher on standard first-semester calculus topics.
