Introduction

The Make It Real Learning Calculus I workbook focuses on real-world situations that may be effectively analyzed using derivatives and other rates of change. This book suits best high school or first-year college calculus courses.

From analyzing the growth of an infant to maximizing the volume of a package, learners get to use mathematics in meaningful ways. Each activity integrates real world information, companies, and issues (e.g. US Postal Service, AIDS, movie ticket prices, rates of change in then number of high school students), not just "realistic" data.

There are multiple ways to use the activities of the book in a teaching environment. The activities are an excellent tool for stimulating mathematical discussions in a small group setting. Due to the challenging nature of each activity, group members are motivated to brainstorm problem solving strategies together. The interesting real world contexts motivate them to want to solve the problems. The activities may also be used for individual projects and class-wide discussions.

As a ready-resource for teachers, the workbook also includes completely worked-out solutions for each activity. To make it easier for teachers to assess student work, the solutions are included on a duplicate copy of each activity.

The mathematical objectives of the activities fall within the standards of the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics.
