M4484: Very Introductory Very Intensive Calculus in Splash Fall 2021 (Nov. 13, 2021)
Calculus is a topic that is surprisingly difficult for a lot of high school students, and it makes sense--the concept of thinking of very small things (i.e. the "d" in dy/dx) or very large things (i.e. infinity) can be evasive. This course is intended for those who want to go into the sciences/engineering and are preparing for a very survey look at what the first forays into calculus look like.
