Course Description
From the CTY Summer Catalog (1999):
Calculus has been called one of the greatest achievements of the human intellect. Students in this course explore the underlying concepts of functions, differential and integral calculus,and differential equations. Each topic is presented geometrically, numerically,and algebraically. Formal definitions and procedures evolve from the investigation of practical problems and applications. The course incorporates independent work, discussion, and lectures by the instructor.
CTY's Calculus course offers an excellent conceptual foundation for students who intend to continue their study of mathematics. Students have the opportunity to progress through the equivalent of most of the Advanced Placement AB curriculum.Therefore, this course is not recommended for students who plan to take AB Calculus in their home schools. Students who are successful in CTY's Calculus course should take Advanced Placement BC Calculus or a second-semester college calculus course during the school year following CTY.
