| Title of Talk | Calculus at Luther College |
| Abstract | Calculus at Luther College: Over the past two decades Calculus instruction at Luther has slowly moved from Reform Calculus back towards a more traditional approach. Several aspects of Reform Calculus, especially the use of technology, have been retained as essential components to teaching Calculus in the modern age. The main reason we moved back to a more traditional way of teaching Calculus was that we found we needed a more intellectually challenging course with sound theoretical foundations for our math majors. |
