Calculus 12 is primarily concerned with an intuitive understanding of the
concepts of Calculus and experience with its methods and applications. Use of the word "intuitive"
is not meant to suggest a reduction of either clarity of concept or precision of
expression. Rather, it attempts to distinguish between a calculus course that emphasizes
precise proofs of all theorems - rigour in the formal sense - and a calculus that states
definitions and theorems correctly but that defers some proofs until later.
Please note that the comments in the principles of Mathematics 12 course outline regarding the use of technology apply equally to Calculus 12. The Ministry of Education has made the Calculus curriculum available as part of the Mathematics Integrated Resource Package. The package is available at: An excellent site of Calculus video lessons (as well as tutorial material) can be found at: There are many sites on the Web that provided mathematics support. Some have large databases of questions and answers that you can access to help solve your problems. If your question (or something very similar) doesn't exist then often you can ask an expert who will get back to you with an answer to your problem in a day or two. The sites below are some of these resources! They have large databases of Q&A ... as well, they allow you to ask questions if you are stuck. As well, our text's webpage can be found at: |
