Calculus and Mathematica at the Ohio State University

俄亥俄州立大学的学生们正在一个装有NeXT计算机和运行数学的计算机实验室学习微积分。他们使用的材料是伊利诺伊州的H·波塔和J·乌尔以及俄亥俄州立大学的W·戴维斯的微积分和数学项目的一部分。该项目为学生提供了一种“活的教科书”、完全沉浸、独特的微积分学习辅导方法。这本教科书正在伊利诺伊州和俄亥俄州立大学编写和试行，目前正被其他几家机构采用。在开发人员看来，该项目的重点是微积分的数学，以及这门学科的适当教学。

Students at Ohio State University are studying calculus in a computer lab containing NeXT computers and running MATHEMATICA. The materials they are using are being developed as part of the Calculus & Mathematica project of H. Porta and J. Uhl at Illinois and W. Davis at Ohio State. The project provides a "living textbook", total immersion, singularly tutorial approach to learning calculus to students. The textbook is being written and piloted at Illinois and Ohio State, and being adopted by several other institutions now. The focus of the project, in the eyes of the developers, is on the Mathematics of Calculus, and the appropriate teaching of the subject.
