The 7th edition of Applied Calculus focuses on the "Rule of Four" (viewing problems graphically, numerically, symbolically, and verbally) to promote critical thinking to reveal solutions to mathematical problems. This approach reinforces the conceptual understanding necessary to reduce complicated problems to simple procedures without losing sight of the practical value of mathematics. In this edition, the authors continue their focus on introducing different perspectives for students with updated applications, exercises, and an increased emphasis on active learning.
New to Edition
New Instructor’s Manual redesigned to provide concrete activities for the learning objectives of each section. The goal of each activity is clearly identified, and the examples chosen are great for face-to-face, online, hybrid or hyflex courses.
Updated data and applications throughout the book including COVID-19 and climate change to provide relevancy and currency for today’s student.
Summaries added to the end of every section to reinforce student understanding of key concepts that were introduced.
Content Changes in all chapters of the text with new and updated problems using current data that support a student’s ability to reason with calculus concepts in a given context.
New Implementation Guide designed to help you identify and utilize the right resources at the right time for your course. It provides descriptions of the various resources available for this course, along with tips for when and how to use them in any course format: face-to-face, online, hybrid, or hyflex courses.
Algorithmic Test Bank Questions have been added to the WileyPLUS question bank.
Features
Mathematical Thinking Supported by Theory and Modeling
The first goal of a calculus course is to acquire a clear intuitive picture of the central ideas. After this foundation has been laid, there is a choice of direction. All students benefit from both mathematical concepts and modeling, but the balance may differ for different groups of students. The Seventh Edition includes:
- A variety of problems and example from the biological sciences, economics, and business
- Models from the health sciences and of population growth
- Problems on Sustainability
- Case studies on medicine by David E. Sloane, MD
Active Learning: Relevant Examples and Exercises
The hallmark of Applied Calculus has been its innovative and engaging examples that promote an interactive classroom. Current and well-crafted problems promote student learning and understanding on key concepts.
Flexibility and Adaptability: Varied Approaches
To apply calculus effectively in the real world, students need skill in both symbolic manipulation and the use of technology. The balance between the two in the classroom may vary, depending on the needs of the students and instructor which is why Applied Calculus 7th Edition is adaptable to different combinations and software including graphing calculators, graphing software, and computer algebra systems while not requiring any specific software or technology.
