ABSTRACT
The poster display shows full-size color prints of selections from Mathematica notebooks developed as part of this project. It also demonstrates the capabilities of the calcE package for Mathematica used in this project. Sample project reports resulting from week-long team projects will also be on display. This project has been underway since spring quarter of 1991, and has received funding from the National Science Foundation: a two-year grant for Curriculum Development (awarded August 1991), and a grant for Laboratory Improvement (awarded June 1991). The latter grant helped us to equip our calculus laboratory with 21 networked NeXT color workstations, a server, two laser printers and one color printer.Keyword(s): calculus, Mathematica
