printer friendly pageCME 10A: Explorations in Calculus
In this course, we will explore the big ideas of calculus, through open, visual, and creative mathematics tasks. Students will be invited to think about what calculus is all about and why it matters. This course will benefit all students whether or not you have taken a calculus class. Students will work collaboratively in problem solving through a supportive community of mathematics learners. This course has three goals to give you a different mathematics experience that could reshape your relationship with mathematics, to provide you with a basis for success in future courses at Stanford, and to teach you the important ideas that pervade calculus. As a community, we will cultivate the positive ideas and mindsets that shape productive learning.
