There would be 4 half day sessions. Session #1: The Fundamental Theorem of Calculus This presentation will include a discussion of the “area-so-far” function and its use in discovering the FTC. We will discuss the connection between differentiation and integration, the analysis of functions, and the definite integral in net change problems.
Dr. Kokoska received his undergraduate degree from Boston College and his MS and Ph.D. from The University of New Hampshire. His research interests include the statistical analysis of cancer chemoprevention experiments. This work involves the development of mathematical models and... Read More →
There would be 4 half day sessions. Session #2: Particle Motion: Straight Line and in the Plane This presentation will include background, definitions, and AP Calculus language associated with particle motion along a straight line (AB topic) and in the plane (BC topic). We will solve several particle motion problems analytically and with technology, and we will discuss the scoring of a typical AP Calculus particle motion problem.
