Length: 52 Minutes Presenter: Dr. Tom Crawford Product: Maple Learn
Dr. Tom Crawford (University of Oxford) will share some example worksheets created in Maple Learn that he uses to help to teach 'Introductory Calculus’ to his undergraduate students and his online audience using YouTube. The ‘Oxford Calculus’ video series which integrates Maple Lea...
Length: 55 Minutes Presenter: Karishma Punwani Product: Maple,Maple Learn
Technology can play a critical role in supporting and enhancing math education, with enlightening visualizations, instant feedback, motivating examples, and hands-on explorations. But selecting that technology typically requires some trade-offs, since students in grade 10 have very different needs f...
Length: 56 Minutes Presenter: Dr. Robert Lopez Product: Maple
In this two-part webinar, Dr. Lopez will examine the structure and functionalities in the Student VectorCalculus package, providing insight into how to understand, and to optimize the use of, this very powerful package. These two webinars answer the question "What does a user need to know about this...
Length: 36 Minutes Presenter: Lance Gooden Product: Maple
What role does faculty confidence and skills play in the use of a Computer Algebra System (CAS) in increasing student success in college calculus courses? In this webinar, Lance Gooden from Johnston Community College discusses his efforts to implement Maple within the classroom in the Calculus seque...
Length: 51 Minutes Presenter: Dr. Robert Lopez Product: Maple
In the final webinar of this series, we’ll explain the covariant derivative. We’ll finish a presentation on surface curvature in which we'll make the connection between the Riemann curvature tensor and the curvature of a surface where the terms "principal curvatures" and "total (or Gauss...
Length: 54 Minutes Presenter: Dr. Robert Lopez Product: Maple
In the fourth webinar of this series, we’re discussing tensor calculus itself. Since the essence of differential calculus is a study of how infinitesimal changes affect scalar functions, extending this study to vectors and tensors leads to the Christoffel symbols (connection coefficients) that...
Length: 50 Minutes Presenter: Dr. Robert Lopez Product: Maple
In a series of five webinars, Dr. Robert Lopez will present the essential ideas of the tensor calculus. The central concepts are contained in three sections: Preliminaries from Multivariate Calculus, Tensor Algebra, and Tensor Calculus. In the third webinar of this series, we investigate the ques...
Length: 42 Minutes Presenter: Dr. Robert Lopez Product: Maple
In the second installment of the Essentials of Tensor Calculus series, Dr. Robert Lopez will explain reciprocal vectors and show that bases of tangents and gradients are reciprocal. This is important because these distinctions underpin the difference between contravariance and covariance. The transi...
Length: 43 Minutes Presenter: Dr. Robert Lopez Product: Maple
In a series of five webinars, Dr. Robert Lopez will present the essential ideas of the tensor calculus. The central concepts are contained in three sections: Preliminaries from Multivariate Calculus, Tensor Algebra, and Tensor Calculus. In this first webinar of the series, Dr. Lopez will begin a ...
Length: 62 Minutes Presenter: Dr. Robert Lopez Product: Maple
In this webinar, we will look at the Rayleigh quotient for finding eigenvalues of symmetric matrices, and its relation to the Rayleigh-Ritz technique for approximating solutions of the Sturm-Liouville eigenvalue problem. The gap between optimization and approximating eigenvalues of an ODE is spanned...
