New to This Edition
ACHIEVE FOR CALCULUS
Achieve focuses on engaging students through pre-class and post-class assessment, interactive activities, and a full e-book. Achieve is a complete learning environment with easy course setup, gradebook and LMS integration.
- The easy-to-use Homework Math Palette adapts its front page to the content of the problem, bringing forward the most appropriate buttons. This helps students focus on the math rather than the format.
- Homework Warnings: Our propriety grading algorithm conbines our homegrown parser and the computer algebra system, SymPy. It is programed to accept every valid equivalent answer and to trigger warnings for answers entered in an incorrect format.
- Targeted Feedback ensures the focus is on learning.
- Detailed Solutions: Setailed step-by-step solutions ensure students learn from a problem when they answer correctly or give up.
- Guided Learn and Practice assignments include interactive content, videos, and instructional feedback to prepare students before they come to class.
- Guided Learn and Practice Assignments contain CalcClips tutorial videos are integrated throughout the e-book.
- Dynamic Figures powered by Desmos, take students experience further with conceptual and computational questions about the interactive Dynamic Figures. These book-specific figures are embedded directly in the e-book and additional assessment for the figures are found in the Guided Learn and Practice question banks.
- LearningCurve adaptive quizzing offers individualized question sets and feedback for each student based on his or her correct and incorrect responses.
“The language is precise and to the point. In a sense, the presentation of the content is more dynamic… This semester, the students did better on related rates and optimization problems. I believe the textbook contributed considerably to that.”
- Andrei Olifer, Georgia Gwinnett College
“I find the writing style to be just the right level between too technical and too simplified."
- Meghan Burke, Kennesaw State University
“The writing style is excellent. I love the way of starting a section listing the objectives.”
- Val Mohanakumar, Hillsborough Community College
"The writing style is excellent, and the strongest feature of the book. It is very concise and clear throughout, and written at an appropriate level.”
- Mary Beth Headlee, State College of Florida
“One of the greatest strengths and virtues of this textbook is the writing style of the authors. There is clarity, a smooth flow of the narrative, and a seamless character of how topics and concepts flow from one to the next. The book is easier to read than many other calculus texts.”
- Light Bryant, Arizona Western College
“The authors developed concepts in text with simplistic language that students easily understand while maintaining the mathematical rigor appropriate for a course at this level. I believe the Sullivan/Miranda writing style is clear, concise, and helpful. Compared to our previous text, this one is much more student friendly in terms of written text and explanations. The previous text left out important aspects to the course… The single major strength of this chapter is the writing style and how it’s understandable to students learning these concepts for the first time while maintaining the rigor appropriate for this level.”
- William Veczko, St. Johns River
