Calculus/Ordinary Differential Equations Teaching Computer Laboratory

科罗拉多州立大学数学系正在开发和实施一种新的微积分/常微分方程序列，其中包括每周大约一小时的计算机实验室工作。更新的微积分/常微分方程序列使用计算机代数软件Maple(1)以图形方式说明微积分和常微分方程的基本概念，(2)强调数据，图形和公式之间的“三部曲”，(3)为学生提供研究数学和数学问题解决方法的实验工具，(4)使学生能够解决难以用纸和铅笔尝试的问题。

9452010 Thomas The Department of Mathematics at Colorado State University is developing and implementing a renewed calculus/ordinary differential equations sequence that includes approximately one hour per week of computer laboratory work. The renewed calculus/ordinary differential equations sequence uses the computer algebra software Maple to (1) graphically illustrate basic concepts in calculus and ordinary differential equations, (2) emphasize the trilogy between data, graphics and formulas, (3) give students an experimental tool for investigating mathematics and the solution of mathematical problems and (4) enable students to attack problems too difficult to attempt using paper and pencil.
