“Clickable Calculus” refers to Maple 11’s remarkable set of user-interface features that makes common mathematical operations as easy as pointing and clicking. Unique among professional math tools, Maple 11 provides both computational power and a new-generation user interface that allows students and new users to become proficient with Maple without the burden of learning commands and their related syntax. The result is that instructors can spend their time teaching mathematics rather than the tool. Overall, teaching and learning become more efficient and effective. By solving a spectrum of standard (and not-so-standard) problems drawn from precalculus, and calculus of one and several variables, this session will demonstrate the potential of “Clickable Calculus” to enrich the mathematical experience. This session constitutes the first of two sessions. Part two will cover differential equations, linear algebra, and vector calculus.
