"Calculus On The Wall" - BC Powerpoints

 Automated, illustrated, and narrated calculus lessons.
 

Teaching AB Calculus is tough. Teaching BC Calculus is even tougher. As a calculus teacher, you must explain the theory, along with the limit, integral, and infinite series mechanics and somehow tie all of this information together with real-life examples. It is a daunting task, especially for teachers who are just getting used to teaching AB and are then asked to teach BC.

A good BC calculus course requires students to learn some theory. While some of the course is an extension of AB, the infinite series section and Taylor polynomials are much different than anything students (and maybe teachers) have ever seen. Parametrics and polar curves are just the introduction to space curves that students will encounter in multivariable calculus.  Students need to refine their ability to integrate complicated expressions.  Many teachers just need some help in learning the curriculum and how to teach it.

MasterMathMentor proudly presents Calculus on the Wall BC - 8 Powerpoints that cover all of the BC Calculus curriculum. What makes these slide shows unique is that, like the AB version, they are narrated - what occurs on the screen is written by Stu and explained by a professional reader in an easy-to-listen-to style. The Powerpoints are also available in un-narrated versions, with you receiving a script of the narration so you can do the teaching yourself, if you so choose.

Calculus on the Wall slide shows vary between 13 slides and 22 slides. There is a lot happening on each slide and any one of them might represent an entire lesson for you on a particular day. When appropriate, there are graphics on the slides that explain Euler's method as well of visual evidence of convergence or divergence of series. It is a dynamic way of learning calculus and you can sit back and let our carefully chosen examples illustrate the important theory, applications, and solutions. Along with having Powerpoint on your computer, the only mastery of technology you need is to be able to click a mouse!

Calculus on the Wall Powerpoints are completely editable. They are organized so that narrations occur automatically with text blocks, tables, animations and graphics that appear and disappear on the slide. If you have a knowledge of Powerpoint, you can completely alter any or all of slides to your specifications. For instance, you could require a mouse click to move from one screen element and narration to another. You have full control based on your teaching style and can tailor the programs to fit the needs of your class.

Calculus on the Wall Powerpoints are compatible with the Windows version of Microsoft Office 2010 and later and the Mac version of Microsoft Office 2011 and later. It is recommended that if you show these in a classroom setting, that you add speakers to your computer to be sure that everyone can hear.

A current trend in education is "flipping the classroom."  Flipping occurs when students learn new content online by watching video lectures, usually at home.  What used to be homework is now done in class. The classroom thus becomes a place with more student interaction and personalized guidance by the teacher. For schools that are interested in this teaching style, Calculus on the Wall becomes a perfect way to introduce all the major concepts of AP Calculus to students in a "flipped classroom" setting, assuming that the students have Powerpoint on their home computers.

You can order Calculus on the Wall with a license to upload the narrated version to your school's private website or Moodle to give your students access to it. In addition, Calculus on the Wall works well with students who are home-schooled.

This new Powerpoint BC series is a wonderful addition to our lineup, whether you just need one Calculus on the Wall BC slide show to enhance a challenging topic to teach, or the entire series that you can use to cover the BC calculus curriculum completely.  The programs will take the onus off your shoulders to present interesting and dynamic lessons, allowing you to concentrate more on the progress of your students.
